Websites for small NZ organisations and businesses
Develop your site free. Keep it, and own it outright.
One email opens your Build Room. Tell your story there and a working website can be back the same day, live at a private link. Shape it with us for a free week, then keep it for a flat $800. Your website, freehold.
No forms, no calls, no account. One email opens your own room, and no is always fine.

How it works Going FreeholdAlready paying monthly for one
Email us the address. We rebuild it free and show you first, before you decide a thing.
Going FreeholdA website built in your own Build Room
You never log into anything or learn a tool. The only decision that costs you anything is the last one.
You tell your story in your Build Room
One email opens it. A quiet chat with the studio, one question at a time, and a shelf for your photos and documents.
We build it, fast
A real multi-page website, live at a private link. It can be back the same day your room is ready, and never more than a few days.
You shape it free for a week, then keep it or walk away
Ask for any change you like. Keep it for a flat $800 and it goes live in your name. Or walk away and it comes down the same day, no charge.
Every site we build is one of one
There’s no house template. These three are fictional businesses we made up to show how differently a Freehold site can turn out: a bakery, a rural sparky and a celebrant. Yours starts from your world, your words and your photos.
Three more we made earlier: Two Rivers Community Shed, Harbour Light Heritage Society and Southern Rivers Canoe Club.
Free to build. $800 to keep. Nothing monthly, ever.
You only pay if you keep the finished site, and the price follows one published rule, the same for everyone.
From published prices, July 2026: an agency build runs from $3,500 and then $40 to $400 a month; a small studio $900 to $4,000 and then $40 to $150 a month. Here it is $800 once and $0 after. The whole map: what a website really costs in New Zealand.
In the price, at either rate, only if you want it
Each one is set up on your own account, in your own name. Nothing metered, nothing monthly.
-
The site assistant
Ask and Guide, trained on your own words. There is one in the corner of this page right now.
-
The management room
A private room from a magic link. You say what to change, the studio makes and checks it. Never a dashboard.
-
Run from your inbox
Freehold is the opposite of a website builder. Email a change and it gets made. Nothing to log into, nothing to maintain.
-
Booking, payments, newsletter
Cal.com or Calendly, Givealittle or Stripe, and an email newsletter, each on your own account.
-
Set up to be found
Google, the directories that matter for your work, and the AI assistants people now ask instead of searching.
Ask for your Build Room
One email opens it. Tell us who you are in a line or two, and your private room link comes back by reply.
No is always fine.
