Getting your Richmond business found on Google
Tasman's fast-growing centre beside Nelson. Richmond is one of the main centres in Tasman, which means customers are searching here every day — and so are the competitors who worked out long ago where those customers begin.
We build websites made from the outset to be found for the searches that bring work — your trade alongside Richmond — and improved every month afterwards. One fixed price from $299 a month in USD, everything included, no setup fee.
Getting found in Richmond: the honest version
In a main centre the competition is not only the business down the road. It is national brands and agency-managed sites with years of accumulated work behind them.
Getting past that takes depth rather than spending: a real page for each service you offer and each part of Richmond you actually cover, loading quickly on a phone, with reviews arriving steadily instead of in one implausible burst. Ten focused pages beat one clever homepage nearly every time. That is how we structure the build, and why the work continues monthly rather than ending at launch.
We looked this up rather than assuming it. Searching for a web designer in Richmond in August 2026 returned no business actually based there in the top three ordinary results. Most were firms based somewhere else, running one page per town. It is the same hour of work we do on your own market before writing a word of your site.
Honest about how we work
The studio runs on Indonesian hours, and a New Zealand afternoon lands on our working morning — so a question sent from Richmond after lunch generally gets an answer the same day. Beyond that there is nothing unusual about it: published prices, a site live in 10 business days, and a monthly report carrying the before-and-after HTML for everything that changed.
- Free 20-minute call — you tell us what your business does and for whom; we tell you honestly whether we fit. No proposal theater.
- Every price is published — $299, $599 or $1,199 a month in USD, no setup fee, cancel any month.
- Live in 10 business days from kick-off, or your first month is free — that promise is in writing.
- Improved every month — new pages and ongoing SEO, with every fix verified by an independent re-crawl.
The cost of a website in Richmond, without waiting on a quote
Website pricing around Richmond is quoted rather than published, which is what makes two proposals for the same brief so hard to compare — they can sit a long way apart and both be honest, because they describe different amounts of work. We publish. $299 a month in USD covers the build, the domain, the hosting, the copy we write for you and the SEO that continues every month. No setup fee, cancel any month.
Pay yearly and get two months free. Cancel any time and we refund the unused months pro rata — the annual plan is a discount, not a lock-in.

Frequently asked questions
Who owns the website and the data?
You do. The domain is in your name from day one, and the content, the Search Console property and the Analytics account are yours rather than ours. Nothing about leaving requires our cooperation.
How long until I see results in Richmond?
The site is live in 10 business days and your first monthly report shows every fix that shipped, so the work is visible immediately. Rankings are slower — they compound over months and depend on your competitors and how long your domain has existed. In a main centre they are slower again. Anyone quoting a date is guessing.
Do you have an office in Richmond?
No. We work remotely for businesses across New Zealand, including Richmond. The first conversation is a free 20-minute call, and you see published prices before committing to anything.
Does the time difference make this awkward?
Less than you would expect. The studio works Indonesian hours, and a New Zealand afternoon falls on our working morning — so anything sent after lunch is usually answered the same day rather than overnight.
Can you get my business to number one on Google in Richmond?
Nobody can guarantee a Google ranking, and Google says as much in its own guidance — it warns that anyone promising one is a red flag. What we guarantee instead is the price, the scope, the delivery date, what you own and the exit, and every fix is proven with a re-crawl you can read yourself.
