Your business online — built and run.

We set up and maintain your online presence — so you can focus on the work.

01 · What we do

One service.
Everything handled.

Five pillars, one flat monthly fee. We don't just build your website — we run the whole thing for you, long after launch.

P·01

Websites

Custom-designed, mobile-first and fast. Built around your business and your customers — no templates, no page builders.

Designed · Built · Hosted
P·02

Email

A professional hello@yourbusiness address on your own domain, routed straight to the inbox you already use.

Your domain · Your name
P·03

Bookings

Booking and enquiry systems that capture every lead — sent to your inbox and a private dashboard, never lost in a notebook.

Leads · Captured 24/7
P·04

Google

Indexed on Search, listed on Google Business Profile, visible on Maps — so locals actually find you when they look.

Search · Maps · Profile
P·05

Support

Updates, fixes, changes and advice — message one person who knows your site inside out, and it's handled.

Ongoing · Included

02 · How it works

From signup
to live.

A clear five-step path. You'll always know exactly where your build is at — most sites go live within 14 days of the first invoice.

Start at step one

STEP — 01

Discovery

We learn your business, your goals and your customers — then map the right plan and features for you.

Free · No commitment

STEP — 02

Agreement & first payment

You pick a plan, we agree the scope in writing, and the first invoice locks in your build slot. Paid invoice = build starts.

6-month minimum from launch

STEP — 03

Design preview

You see a real working preview of your site early — not a mockup — and we shape it together until it feels right.

Your feedback drives it

STEP — 04

Build

The full site comes together: every page, booking and enquiry systems, business email, domain and hosting wired up properly.

Days, not months

STEP — 05

Launch & handover

We go live, submit you to Google, set up your Business Profile, and hand over everything you need. Then we keep running it.

Supported long-term

03 · Why TheWayUp

Most web designers build it
and disappear.

We're the opposite — a managed service. The build is just day one.

We build it AND run it

Hosting, domain, email, Google, updates, fixes — all handled for one flat monthly fee. Your website is never "your problem" again.

Managed end-to-end

NZ-local, NZ-focused

Based on the Hibiscus Coast, working Auckland-wide and NZ-wide. We know what NZ small businesses actually need to get found.

Hibiscus Coast · Auckland · NZ

One person, done properly

No agency funnel, no account managers, no hand-offs. The person you talk to is the person who designs, builds and runs your site.

Direct line, always

No lock-in. Ever.

Your domain and email stay yours. If you ever want to leave, we transfer everything out within 14 days — no exit fees, no hostage-taking.

14-day transfer-out promise

Fees are non-refundable once work has started.

Monthly plans have a 6-month minimum term from launch, then continue month-to-month. Final pricing may vary depending on your business needs.

06 · Common questions

Things people
usually ask first.

Most websites are completed within around 14 days, depending on your requirements. I'll keep you updated throughout the process so you always know where things are at.

You can choose a one-off build you own outright, paid once with no monthly, or a simple monthly plan with no upfront cost — whichever suits you. Once the first invoice is paid, the build starts.

No long-term contracts. Monthly plans have a minimum 6-month term from launch, then continue month-to-month. If a plan is cancelled within the minimum term, the remaining balance for that period is required.

Fees are non-refundable once work has started, as they cover the time and work involved in building your website.

I'll review your brief and get back to you within 24 hours with a clear plan and next steps for your website.

Not at all. On a monthly plan everything is handled for you — from setup to ongoing support, and if you need anything updated or changed, just message me and I'll take care of it. One-off builds are handed over for you to run yourself, so ongoing changes aren't included there.

No problem — you're never locked in. On a monthly plan, the website is part of the ongoing service and stays live while you're on the plan; if you leave, we transfer your domain, email and Google profile to you within 14 days, with no fees. If you chose the one-off, you already own everything from day one — the site, domain and accounts are set up in your name, so there's nothing to transfer and no exit to worry about.

Your domain and email are set up for your business and remain yours. Access and ownership can be transferred at any time if needed.

No — I work with businesses anywhere in NZ. Most of the process happens over email, calls, and screen-share, so location doesn't matter.
