Website design for Auckland businesses.

ABDS designs business websites and online stores for Auckland, New Zealand and international projects. We plan new builds and redesigns around what customers need to do: understand your services, enquire, book or buy. Scope and pricing are agreed for your project.

Scope, costs & preparation

Know what your website quote covers.

Discuss your requirements

Your project scope. We quote to your requirements, with the page types, design and development, content responsibilities and launch checks listed. A service website, online store and redesign require different work; the quote identifies what belongs in your project.

Additional work and ongoing costs. Copywriting, product entry, migration and custom integrations are included only where agreed. Domain registration, hosting, booking or payment providers and other subscriptions are identified separately from the build. Ongoing website maintenance has its own scope.

What to prepare. Share your services or products, target customers, existing website if you have one, and whether visitors should enquire, book or buy. Include any logo, approved images and draft content you have, plus your intended launch date. Tell us what still needs creating; account access can be arranged securely when needed.

Responsibilities and timing. Your team confirms business facts, approved assets and one route for consolidated feedback. We agree who prepares missing content, supplies account access and approves publication. Content readiness, integrations and feedback affect milestones; a change to scope is discussed before adding cost or work.

Review and handover. Before publication, review the agreed pages on phone and desktop and confirm the relevant enquiry, booking or purchase journey. We agree testing permissions, any redirects and the launch approval. Handover identifies editing access and support responsibilities. See our project delivery stages.

We deliver projects online for businesses across New Zealand and internationally.

Tell us what your website needs to do

Before we start

Your questions, answered.

What should I prepare before we build the website?

Bring your main services or products, the customers you want to reach and the action you want visitors to take. A logo, brand colours, approved photos and an outline of the pages are useful. Tell us what is ready and what needs creating so content work can be included in the scope. For an existing site, share its public address; account access can be arranged securely when needed.

How long does it take to create a website?

Timing depends on the page types, content readiness, design feedback, integrations and any migration from an existing website. We agree the milestones and what each side needs to provide before work starts. If you have a launch date, mention it in your enquiry so we can assess dependencies and propose a workable scope.

Do you build websites for small businesses in Auckland?

Yes. We can scope a first website, a service business website, an online store or a focused redesign. One main page may suit a single offer; separate service pages can explain different services and enquiry routes. We plan around what customers need to know and do. Local SEO and ongoing support can be discussed as your needs develop.

What should I prepare for an online store?

Share your approximate product count, variants, delivery areas and existing stock or order systems, plus who will update products and process orders. We scope the catalogue, payments and connections, identifying platform and third-party costs separately.

A purchase-flow review can cover product selection, options, delivery costs and checkout. We agree the test environment and any payment or live-order checks before testing.

Can you redesign our existing website?

A focused update may suit a site whose structure and key functions still work, but where content, navigation or one customer journey needs attention. A rebuild may be worth considering when your services, page structure or required functions have changed substantially. We review the existing site and the parts worth keeping before recommending the scope.

How much does a business website cost in Auckland?

We quote by project requirements. The quote sets out the pages, design and development, content responsibilities, integrations and launch checks. Page types, content readiness and migration affect cost and timing. Domain registration, hosting, third-party subscriptions and ongoing support are identified separately, so you can distinguish initial and continuing costs before work begins.

Can you connect the website to booking, payment or business systems?

We can scope connections where the provider offers suitable, authorised access. Share the systems you use and what the website needs to read or update. We check available integrations, account permissions, provider fees and failure handling before agreeing the work. Booking tools, payment services and custom integrations may have separate setup and ongoing costs.

Can I update the website myself?

If your team needs to edit pages, products or other content, we discuss a suitable content management approach in the brief. We agree the editing access, handover and any guidance you need before launch. You can also ask us to handle agreed updates through our website maintenance service.

What happens to our existing domain and website content?

For a redesign, we review the current pages and URLs, decide which content to keep and plan redirects for replaced pages. Domain and hosting access, content migration and responsibility for any third-party accounts are agreed before launch. This gives the rebuild a clear transition plan. Search visibility can fluctuate as search engines process changed URLs.

Will the website include SEO and ongoing support?

We can include search foundations such as page structure, metadata and launch checks in the website scope. Ongoing content, SEO services, hosting and maintenance requirements are agreed separately so you know what is covered. Explore our website maintenance and management service for help after launch.
