What changes
What web design Wellington businesses should expect
Wellington is full of tidy websites that bring in nothing. So judge the job on what changes after launch — here are the three changes that matter.
- Get found
You show up where Wellington looks
We build every page around a search people here type. So the site brings in its own visitors, instead of waiting for referrals to pass your name along.
- Get chosen
Quiet checkers get in touch
Wellington buyers compare before they ever ring anyone. Clear words, honest proof and one obvious next step mean more of those quiet comparisons end with your form filled in.
- Keep control
You own every part of it
The site, the domain and every word on it belong to you from day one. And if we ever part ways, everything stays put and keeps working.

Wellington runs on government, professional services, tech and hospitality — and a lot of the city sells to other businesses. So before anyone rings you, they've already checked your website. Even a warm referral gets a quiet once-over first, usually on a phone between meetings.
And here's the truth: whatever you sell, the searches your own customers type are crowded. Because this city packs so many firms into a few streets, page one is a fight — which makes a web design Wellington job a longer one, and we'd rather say so now.
Longer doesn't mean vague, though. We build each page around one search, and write it so a busy reader gets the point in seconds. And if your current site only needs fixing, the plan says that instead of selling you a rebuild. Rankings and traffic are the means. Enquiries are the measure.

Next steps
How a Wellington site runs, start to finish
A website job shouldn't be a mystery. So here's the whole thing, week by week, before you commit to any of it.
Week 1
Your free web design Wellington plan
Send us your site — or just your business name if you're starting fresh. We read it, write the plan and send it back within one working day. After that, it's an hour on the phone if you want it, and nothing if you don't.
Weeks 2-3
Your Wellington web design, agreed first
You see the design and the real words before we build anything, then change whatever you don't like. So you're approving the real thing, not empty boxes.
Weeks 4-6
Build, check, launch
We build the site, check it on real phones, and put it live. Then old links land on the right new pages, and Google gets told where everything moved.
After launch
The same people, the whole way
You deal with the same people the whole way through, not an account manager. Anything that breaks in the first month, we fix. And because Wellington is a longer race, the plan will already say what's worth doing next to keep climbing.

A new website is one route. Depending on where you're starting from, one of these might be the better first move — and the plan will say so.
Common questions
Web design Wellington questions we get asked
Straight answers to the things people ask before handing anyone their website.
Three things set the price of every web design Wellington job: what you're selling, where you're selling it, and how hard the competition is. A five-page site for a tradie is a different job from a booking-heavy hospitality site. Either way, you'll get a real figure on the first call, before you commit to anything.
No, and we won't pretend otherwise — there's no Digital Movement office on The Terrace. Your address doesn't rank your website; the pages do. And the work is the same whether the person doing it is up the road or not. Either way, you'll see all of it in the tracking.
The build itself is a one-off job with a start and a finish. If you keep us on afterwards to climb Wellington's searches, that's three months to start, then month by month. After that you can stop whenever you like, and the site stays yours and keeps working.
You'll know early, because visits and enquiries are visible from day one. If a number isn't moving, we work out why — usually the wrong searches or unclear pages — and change it. We can't promise a result. But we can promise you'll always see where things stand.
Longer than in a quiet town, and anyone who gives you a date is guessing. Most searches here already have established names on page one, so a new site has to earn its place over months, not weeks. What a web design Wellington job buys is steady ground, gained and held — and you'll watch it happen in plain English.
You do, from day one. The site, the domain name, the text and the photos all sit in your name, not ours. So if we ever part ways, nothing stops working and nothing gets held hostage.
The people you talk to. Digital Movement is a small team, so the person who plans your website helps build it. You'll deal with that same person from the first call onwards — no account managers, and no being handed around a studio.
Less than you'd expect. A rough idea of what you sell and who buys it, photos if you have them, and a couple of hours for questions. We write the words for you, because website jobs usually stall waiting on text — so we simply don't wait for it.
