What you gain
Found in Napierand Hastings both.
You shouldn't have to choose between ranking in one centre or the other.
- 01Visibility
One business, both centres
We build for Napier searches and Hastings searches separately, because someone in Havelock North doesn't search the way someone in Ahuriri does.
- 02Coverage
Two centres
Napier and Hastings covered
Pages for both city centres and the towns between them. Not one generic Hawke's Bay page doing the work of six.
- 03Reach
Whole region
Past the city limits
Havelock North, the Heretaunga Plains, the coast. We get you found by the rural and lifestyle customers searching across the wider catchment.
Why Hawke's Bay is different
Two centres,one business.
Napier and Hastings sit twenty minutes apart, and most trades here quote in both without thinking about it. But Google doesn't know that. A page built around one town name is invisible to everyone searching from the other.
The two centres also want different things. Napier's visitor trade drives hospitality fit-outs and property maintenance. Hastings runs on packhouses, cool stores and the orchards out across the Heretaunga Plains — so a commercial sparkie or refrigeration job there often follows the harvest calendar, not the year.
So we name Napier, Hastings, Havelock North and the rural surrounds separately. That's how people here actually search, and it's the difference between showing up in one centre and showing up in both.

Common questions
The questions weget asked most.
What Napier and Hastings owners ask before booking a free plan.
One fixed price a month, not per hour and not per link. Three things decide what it comes to: your industry, whether you're chasing Napier, Hastings or the whole Bay, and what you want the work to do. Ask for the free plan and you'll get a real number on the first call, not a range that hides the cost.
Yes. That means local pages, your Google Business Profile sorted, and content built around Napier's suburbs and its visitor trade — alongside the wider Bay work.
Yes. Hastings work is built around the packhouses, the horticulture and the residential suburbs, so you show up for the searches that actually apply to you.
That's how we build it. One plan covering Napier, Hastings and Havelock North together, because most businesses here already work across both centres.
Trades and home services are our focus — builders, plumbers, electricians, roofers, landscapers. We know how those businesses get found: urgent local searches, seasonal work, and customers spread across a wide patch.
Some movement usually starts in the first few weeks, because the technical fixes land first. Enquiries follow once the new pages have been up a month or two. We won't promise a position — nobody controls Google's results. But the searches we're chasing are agreed in writing, and you see where you sit on each one every month.
Three months to start, then month by month. If we're not delivering, you can go. We'd rather earn the next month than trap you in one.
Not yet, and we'll say so. Our published reviews were earned by the wider Digital Movement business, not in Hawke's Bay. What you can rely on is the same process, the searches written down before you start, and a 5.0 Google rating across 100+ reviews.
