WordPress Experts
 
					Bespoke WordPress websites that are easy to manage, built to last, and designed for your audience.
We’ve been working with WordPress since 2004. Over that time, we’ve refined our skills, contributed plugins, and supported hundreds of organisations across New Zealand. Whether you need a professional business website, a content-rich research platform, or a trusted digital presence for your community, we make complex systems simple and give you the confidence to manage your own site.
Our clients - from professional service firms and science organisations to funeral homes and agritech businesses - come to us because they want more than just a good-looking website. They want a site that works: discoverable in Google, fast on every device, and simple for their team to update. That’s what being a WordPress specialist is all about.
Why use WordPress?
We’ve worked with just about every CMS out there — SilverStripe, MODx, CraftCMS, ExpressionEngine, Joomla - and after two decades of building, both our clients and our team have consistently preferred WordPress.
Here’s why it’s the platform we’ve chosen to specialise in:
- Open source & owned by you - With WordPress, you own your site, content, and data. There are no expensive licences or restrictions - you’re not locked into a proprietary system.
- Trusted worldwide - WordPress powers nearly half the internet, including sites for NASA, The White House, CNN, and Time Magazine. It’s trusted by some of the most secure and high-profile organisations in the world.
- Cost-effective - The CMS itself is free, unlike many platforms that charge ongoing annual fees. Your investment goes into design, development, and features that matter.
- Flexible & secure - WordPress is endlessly adaptable. From simple service websites to complex data-heavy platforms, it scales with you. Security enhancements and updates keep it robust.
- Loved by editors - Clients consistently tell us that WordPress is the easiest system for non-technical staff to update. If your team can use Word or email, they can use WordPress.
And because we don't just use WordPress - we extend it - we've also written a number of custom plugins to meet unique client needs.

We provide end-to-end services for organisations that need more than a standard site.

Training & Support
We don't just hand over a website and walk away. Every project includes tailored training sessions so your team feels confident managing content, adding services, or sharing updates. We also record custom training videos inside your dashboard - so even months later, you can refresh your memory without waiting on support.
And when you do need us, we're here. From small content changes to technical fixes, you'll have direct access to the same experts who built your site.
Long-Term Partnership
Most of our clients stay with us for years - some for over a decade. In that time, we've redeveloped their sites two or three times as their needs and audiences have evolved. That's because we see every project as the start of a relationship, not the end of one.
We take care of updates, optimisations, and security, so your site continues performing at its best. And when your organisation grows - new services, new projects, new audiences - we're right there to adapt your site.
That's the difference between a one-off build and a WordPress partner you can rely on.
WordPress experts in Christchurch & across New Zealand
We're based in Canterbury, but our work spans the country. In Christchurch, we support professional services firms, consultancies, and agritech businesses. Nationally, we partner with science programmes, purpose-driven organisations, and funeral providers who need websites that balance complex information with human clarity.
Wherever you are in New Zealand, our role is the same: making sure you have a website that reflects your expertise, works smoothly, and is easy to maintain.
Examples of our work
- Science & research - For Our Land & Water, we built a taxonomy-driven platform linking hundreds of projects, datasets, and researchers into a clear, searchable site.
- Funeral sector - For Pellow & Hill, we created a dignified, easy-to-manage site with transparent pricing, livestream functionality, and a calm, reassuring design.
- Professional services - For consultancies, we've delivered structured websites that showcase expertise, highlight case studies, and make enquiries seamless.
