Website design for NZ businesses that want to look the part
Sound familiar? Someone asks for your website and you send them a Facebook link — or a site that hasn’t been touched since the day it was built.
I’m Manpreet, and I design and build fast, professional websites for New Zealand small businesses. Most clients start with a one-page Starter Website for $300: one well-planned page, up to 5 sections, that explains what you do, looks great on a phone and makes it easy to call or enquire. Need more pages, a redesign or extra features? I’ll quote it in writing before any work starts. Either way, you deal with me — the person actually designing your site — from first message to launch day.
Who it’s for
Is this right for you?
- You don’t have a website yet, or you only have a Facebook page
- Your current site looks dated or is awkward to use on a phone
- You’re starting a business and need to look credible from day one
- You’re a tradie, salon, barber, café, cleaner, retailer or local service
What a well-built website does for you
Looks the part on every phone
Most local customers will find you on a phone. I design for small screens first, so your page is easy to read and the call button is always within thumb reach.
Answers the big questions fast
What you do, where you work and how to reach you — up front, in plain English, the way your customers would ask.
Quick and low-fuss
I build lightweight static websites: quick to load, with fewer moving parts to update or go wrong.
Google-friendly from day one
Proper page titles, descriptions, headings and image descriptions, so search engines can understand what your business does.
Two ways to start
One great page, or a bigger site.
Most small businesses start with one page and add more later. Either way, the price is agreed before any work starts.
When you need more
Bigger website or redesign
Quoted upfront
Separate pages for each service or area, a refresh of an existing site, or features like online booking, menus and galleries. Same care and attention, scaled to what you need.
Scope
What’s included in the $300 Starter Website
Bigger websites get the same care, scaled to the pages and features in your written quote.
Included
- One custom web page with up to 5 sections — for example intro, services, about, photos and contact
- A responsive design that works on phones, tablets and computers
- Your branding, images and content, put together professionally — with light editing of your text
- Tap-to-call, email and social media links, plus a link to your location on Google Maps
- A working enquiry form that sends messages to your inbox
- Basic on-page SEO: page title, description, headings, image descriptions and fast loading
- Google Search Console set up when your site goes live
- Two rounds of revisions before launch
- Help connecting your domain and deploying your site — once you’ve approved it and the balance is paid
Not included in the $300
- Domain name and hosting fees
- Extra pages — quoted before any work starts
- Advanced booking systems or e-commerce features
- Logo design
- Extensive copywriting
- Photography
- Ongoing services such as maintenance, SEO or advertising
How website design is priced
A one-page Starter Website is $300, one-off, with no GST added: a $150 deposit to start, then the remaining $150. Domain and hosting are paid separately — I’ll explain the options and costs before you commit. Bigger websites, redesigns and extra features are quoted in writing before any work starts.
What affects the price
- How many pages you need
- Features like online booking or a shop
- Whether you supply the words and photos
- Whether it’s a brand-new site or a redesign
How it works
How a website project works
You’ll know what happens at every step — and nothing starts until you’ve agreed the price.
Tell me about your business
Fill in the short form. I’ll ask what you do, who your customers are and what you want the website to do — no jargon.
Agree the price
For a Starter Website the price is set: $300, with a $150 deposit to start. For anything bigger, I send a written quote first, so you know the cost before any work starts.
I design, you review
I build your site and send you a private preview link to check on your own phone. Starter Websites include 2 rounds of changes.
Approve, then go live
Once you’ve approved the finished site and paid the balance, I connect your domain, test your enquiry form on phones and computers, set up Google Search Console and put it live.
How long does it take to build a website?
Mostly it depends on how quickly I get your logo, photos and wording, and how many changes you’d like. A one-page site is the quickest option. I’ll give you a realistic timeline before we start, rather than promise a date I can’t keep.
Will I own my website?
Yes. Once the agreed payments are made, you receive your website’s custom source code — subject to any third-party licences (for example fonts or stock images). I recommend registering your domain in your own business’s name too, so you always control it — even if you stop working with me.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes. I’ll look at what’s working, what isn’t and what can be reused — your domain, photos and wording — then quote a redesign. Sometimes a sharp one-page site does the job better than a tired five-page one.
Do you write the words for my website?
You supply the basics — your services, areas and contact details — and I tidy up the wording as part of the Starter Website. If you’d like everything written from scratch, I can quote that separately.
Is a $300 website actually any good?
It is when the scope is right. $300 buys one focused, well-built page — not a cut-down version of something bigger. Plenty of small businesses only need one great page. If yours needs more, I’ll tell you honestly.
