Website design in Hamilton, for businesses all over NZ

A website with a bit of cunning.

Sitefox builds good-looking, quick websites for small businesses, plus the clever parts behind them: online shops, food ordering, bookings and tools made for how you work.

45+ small-business websites built and live, and counting.

What we build

If your business needs it online, we can build it.

Business websites

A proper home for your business. Clear, quick on a phone, easy to find on Google, and written so people know what to do next.

Online shops

Products, cart, checkout, order emails and a back office to run it from. No app store bolted on top.

Food ordering

Your menu, paid online, straight to a screen in the kitchen. No platform taking a cut of each order.

Bookings and enquiries

Let people book, ask or get a quote at 9pm, and have it land in your inbox ready to answer.

Website makeovers

Already got a site that looks tired or never brings in work? We rebuild it and keep what is worth keeping.

Google Ads

Be at the top of Google the day you want more work. We set up and look after your ads, aimed at the people and places you actually serve, so your budget isn't wasted.

From $150 a month, ad spend included

Why Sitefox

Four house rules.

1

Fast beats fancy

Most of your customers are on a phone with one bar of signal. Every site is built to load quickly there first.

2

No cut of your sales

Your orders are your money. We charge for building and looking after the site, not a slice of each sale.

3

Plain English only

You get straight answers from a real person who built your site, not a ticket number and a help centre.

4

Built around you

No squeezing your business into a template. If you work a certain way, the site works that way too.

How it works

From a chat to a live site.

1

Tell us about it

What you do, who you do it for, and what you want the site to get done.

2

We get building

We write the words, sort the design and build the real thing, not a mock-up.

3

You try it out

Click around it on your own phone, tell us what to change, and we change it.

4

We go live

We connect your domain, get you on Google and keep it all running from there.

FAQ

Good questions.

What kinds of business do you work with?

Cafés, trades, trainers and ecommerce sites. If you are not sure you fit, ask.

Where are you based?

Hamilton, in the Waikato. We build websites for businesses all over New Zealand, so it does not matter where you are.

How long does it take?

A standard business website is usually a matter of days once we know what you need. Shops and bigger jobs take longer, and we will give you a straight timeframe with the quote.

Are there limits on pages or forms?

No. Some website builders cap you at a handful of forms unless you pay more. We build whatever pages and forms your business needs, on every plan. The Google side is done for you too: page titles, descriptions, picture descriptions and a sitemap, so you do not need an SEO tool or have to learn it yourself.

Can I change things myself?

On shops and ordering sites, yes: you get a back office for products, prices and photos. On a business website, just send us the change and we will do it.

I already have a website. Can you take it over?

Yes. We rebuild it, keep what is working and move your domain across, so your email and your Google listing carry on as they should.

Do I need to write the words or take the photos?

No. We write the first draft of the words from what you tell us. Your own photos are always best, but we can work with what you have.

What are we building?

Tell us a bit about your business and what you are after. You will hear back from a real person.
