Website Development

Website Design & Development

A website is often the first thing a customer sees, so it should be fast, findable and unmistakably yours. We design and build modern marketing sites, event microsites and landing pages by hand, tune them for Core Web Vitals, search and AI answer engines, and deploy them to a global edge network where they cost almost nothing to run. We build from Hamilton, in the Waikato, for clients across New Zealand.

What's included

Built for speed

A hand-built front end with no bloated page builder, tuned for Core Web Vitals so it loads instantly on a phone and holds up when it's shared.

Found by people and AI

Clean semantic markup, metadata, Open Graph and structured data, so you're discoverable in search and quotable in AI answer engines.

Designed around your brand

A custom visual identity that looks like you, not a theme a thousand other businesses are also running.

Low-cost to host, simple to run

Static-first sites on a global CDN run on low-cost hosting, with automatic HTTPS and nothing to patch.

Fast by default, not as an afterthought

Most websites are slow because they're assembled from heavy page builders and a stack of plugins that all load before a visitor sees a thing. We build the front end by hand, ship the smallest amount of code that does the job, and tune for Core Web Vitals from the first commit. The result loads instantly on a phone in a cafe, stays smooth when it's shared into a group chat, and keeps both your visitors and Google happy.

An AI-assisted build, with a human in charge

We build with an AI-assisted workflow, so brand exploration, layout, copy, motion and production hardening all move faster than a traditional agency timeline. That means a polished site in days rather than weeks, without cutting corners on accessibility or quality. AI does the heavy lifting; we own the design judgement, the accuracy and the final quality bar, so what ships is genuinely good, not just quick.

The right architecture for the job

For a focused brochure, campaign or event site, a hand-built static site is faster, more secure and cheaper to host than a CMS or website builder, with no plugins to update and no server to patch. When you need to publish content yourself every week, or the site grows into a full web app, we wire in a content management system or build the app instead. We pick the architecture that fits the site, rather than forcing every project through the same tool.

Frequently asked

A focused single-page or small marketing site can be designed, built and deployed in days rather than weeks. Our AI-assisted workflow compresses brand exploration, build and production hardening without cutting corners on quality or accessibility. Larger sites with more pages or custom features take longer, and we'll give you a clear timeline up front.

Very little. A static-first site deployed to a platform like Vercel runs comfortably on low-cost tiers, because there's no server or database to maintain, just files served from a global CDN.

For a focused brochure, campaign or event site, a hand-built static site is faster, more secure, cheaper to host and far less likely to break than a CMS or builder. When you need to edit content yourself frequently, a CMS can be the better fit, and we'll tell you when that's the case rather than overbuilding.

Yes. Every site ships with clean semantic structure, metadata, Open Graph tags and structured data so it's ready for search and AI answer engines, and it's fully responsive and respects reduced-motion settings so it works for everyone on any device.
