Website redesigns, NZ
Old, slow, embarrassing site? Let's quietly rebuild it.
Most redesign projects stall because the existing site is technically fine. It just looks dated, loads slowly, or doesn't convert. I rebuild NZ small business sites from scratch on modern infrastructure, keep your SEO ranking, and you see the new version live before paying.
What you actually get.
- SEO preserved. Proper redirects so your existing rankings move across.
- Faster page loads. Most rebuilds go from 5+ seconds to under 1.5.
- Mobile-first redesign. Most of your traffic is on a phone.
- Migrate or keep your existing content, your call.
- Live before you pay. Compare the new site to the old, side by side.
The reason most redesigns drag on for six months is that agencies treat them like a fresh start. They're not. A redesign needs to respect what's already working: your existing Google rankings, the URLs people have bookmarked, the inbound links pointing at your old pages.
I do this properly. Before launch, I map every URL on your existing site, plan redirects for the ones that change, and preserve the on-page SEO signals you've already built up. Done right, you see a noticeable lift in rankings within weeks of relaunch, not a drop.
Send me your current URL and I'll do a free 10-minute teardown. Speed, SEO, mobile experience, conversion. I'll tell you straight whether a redesign is the right call, or whether your existing site just needs a few targeted fixes.
Typical redesign timelines are 1 to 3 weeks depending on scope. Pricing usually lands between $2k and $6k. Fixed price, no surprises, working version live before any money changes hands.
