Why WordPress?

Why Wordpress with Weave?

We use WordPress to help our clients create websites that evolve as they grow — so they can stay focused on their purpose without being held back by tech.

WordPress powers over 40% of the web, and for good reason. It’s open source, open to collaboration, and endlessly flexible — which makes it the perfect platform for organisations working to make a positive difference.

From custom design to smart functionality, we build websites that reflect who you are, support what you do, and scale with your ambition.

At Weave, we don’t do off-the-shelf. Every WordPress site is crafted to fit your unique needs — no bloated templates, no shortcuts. We're agile, hands-on, and committed to supporting you long-term.

When you choose us, you get a local Christchurch web development team that shares your drive to leave the world better than we found it — and a website that helps you do just that.

Weave produced an amazing website for us, they followed our brief, it looks great and while I know there was so much work to do a their end, I felt they made my job much easier through their processes.

It was the first website build I'd project managed, so it was a real learning curve! I don't think I did know quite what to expect, but Liz & Gareth were helpful in explaining things to me when I didn't understand something.
