Nelson lives on visitors, makers and small firms
Nelson is the gateway to Abel Tasman, with a summer crowd that fills Trafalgar Street, the Saturday market and Tāhunanui, and a year-round economy built on fishing out of Port Nelson, apples on the Waimea Plains and hops around Motueka, and a lot of small makers, brewers and craftspeople.
Richmond has grown into the retail centre for the region, and Stoke, Māpua, Motueka and Brightwater all have their own businesses that locals search by town. Most of them are small, well known and busy. A one-page site makes sure the name still turns into a booking when someone searches it on holiday or after moving here.
What goes on a Nelson business website
Nelson, Richmond and the Tasman towns, named
Someone searching “plumber Richmond”, “café Māpua” or “physio Stoke” wants a local. Naming Tāhunanui, Stoke, Richmond, Atawhai, the Wood, Māpua, Motueka, Wakefield and Brightwater tells them and tells Google.
Bookings and seasons made plain
Kayak hire, tours, cabins and cafés run on summer. A booking link or enquiry form, and a spot for seasonal hours you can change yourself.
One tap to call, book or find you
A visitor with a flat tyre on the way to Marahau, or a new resident looking for a dentist, is on their phone. Call, booking and map buttons stay in reach on every screen.
Your Google Business Profile, matched to the site
We check your Maps listing hours, categories and service area agree with the site and link your reviews, since the listing is what visitors see first.
Photos of your work and your place
Your workshop, your orchard, your café on Hardy Street, a deck you built in Richmond. Real photos, never stock.

Anything else? Email us and you’ll hear back within 24 hours.
How much does a website cost in Nelson?
Our prices are the same across New Zealand: NZ$1,490 for a one-page Essentials site, NZ$2,490 for Business (up to 6 pages, copywriting, booking or enquiry set-up) and NZ$3,490 for Growth (up to 12 pages). All one-off. The optional care plan is NZ$49 a month. Essentials is enough for a single café, stall or one-person trade. For a wider look at prices, see our NZ website cost guide.
Do you have an office in Nelson?
No. We serve Nelson businesses by email and we do not have an office there. We work the same way for businesses across the top of the South Island. You get a link to your homepage design, reply with changes when you have a minute, and approve the wording before anything goes live.
How long does it take?
Your homepage design arrives within 24 hours of your go-ahead, and the finished site goes live within 72 hours if you reply quickly to the two rounds of changes. Timings run on your clock in Nelson, by email, so there is no waiting for a meeting slot.
Can the site take bookings for the summer season?
Yes. The Business package includes a booking or enquiry set-up, and the page has a spot for seasonal hours and availability notes that you can change yourself.
My business is in Richmond or Motueka, not Nelson. Does that matter?
No. The page can lead with your own town and say you cover Nelson and Tasman, or the other way round, whichever matches where your customers come from.
I sell at the Nelson Market. Do I need a website too?
If people ask “where can I find you during the week”, yes. One page with what you make, where to buy it, your market days and an order or enquiry form, linked from your Instagram and your market listing.
