Dunedin is a university city with Scottish roots, a working port at Port Chalmers and a coastline that brings visitors out along the Otago Peninsula. The University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic shape the year here: the city fills up in February and quietens over summer, and plenty of local businesses plan around that rhythm.
We work with Dunedin businesses remotely, over the phone and on video. We don't have an office in Dunedin and we won't claim one. What you get is a fixed price you can read before you call, a site built around how your customers actually find you, and someone who keeps it current after it goes live.
What we'd do for your business
- A brand and website that hold their own next to the bigger-city competition
- Pages for Mosgiel, South Dunedin, St Clair or the Peninsula if you serve them, because locals search by suburb
- For student-facing businesses: opening hours, prices and offers that change with the semester, kept up to date for you
- For tourism on the Peninsula and around the harbour: booking links and seasonal hours that work on a phone
Getting found in Dunedin
Someone in Mosgiel looking for an electrician types "electrician Dunedin" or "electrician Mosgiel", not "Otago". A page for Dunedin, plus one for each suburb or town you really cover, is how a local business turns up in those searches. Your Google Business Profile matters as much as the site itself: we make sure the two say the same thing.

Questions
Do I need to be in Dunedin to work with you?
No. Most of the work happens over the phone, video calls and email, so it doesn't matter where your office or workshop is. What matters is that we understand your customers, and we take the time to.
How much does a website cost?
Most projects land between $5k and $10k + GST, and every one includes branding, design and an SEO plan. The care plan, which covers hosting, email, changes, the CMS and security, is $2k a month + GST.
Do you build sites for businesses that rely on students?
Yes. Cafés, bars, flatting and property managers, gyms and shops near campus need prices, hours and offers that are easy to change when the semester starts and ends. The care plan covers making those changes for you.
Will you also cover Mosgiel and the rest of Otago?
Yes. If you serve Mosgiel, Port Chalmers or towns further out, we give each its own page rather than one page that tries to rank for everywhere, and link them together.
