Hastings sits in the middle of the Heretaunga Plains, and a lot of its business follows the land: orchards and packhouses, wineries, farm suppliers, contractors and the trades that keep all of it running. Havelock North brings boutique shops, cafés and professional practices, and Flaxmere and the surrounding towns bring a big local customer base of their own.
We work with Hastings businesses remotely, over the phone and on video. There's no local office and we won't pretend there is one. What you get is a fixed, published price, a site planned around where your customers really are, and someone who keeps it looked after once it's live.
What we'd do for your business
- A brand and website that make a family business or a growing producer look as established as it is
- Separate pages for Havelock North, Flaxmere and the other places you serve
- For growers and wineries: cellar door hours, online orders, and pages for staff or seasonal workers if you're hiring
- Ongoing care: hosting, changes, security and updates when the season or your services change

Questions
Do I need to be in Hastings 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 work with orchards, wineries and food producers?
Yes. Cellar door and shop hours, online orders, what's in season, and a brand that matches the product, on a site that's easy to keep current through the year.
Can one site cover Hastings and Napier?
Yes. One site, with its own page for each city and each town you serve, works better than a single page aimed at all of Hawke's Bay.
