Whangārei is Northland’s only city, and the one place everyone up here searches
Whangārei is the service centre for the whole of Northland. People drive in from Dargaville, Kaikohe and the Bay of Islands for the hospital, the shops and the tradespeople, and the Town Basin and the Hundertwasser Art Centre bring visitors who did not come for a plumber but might need one.
The city works in boatbuilding and marine services around the harbour, in Northport and the industry at Marsden Point, in forestry and farming, and in the everyday trades and shops along Cameron Street, in Kamo and Tikipunga, and out at Onerahi and Ruakākā. A lot of those businesses are found by word of mouth. The site is what the word of mouth lands on.
What goes on a Whangārei business website
The suburbs and the towns up the road
Naming Kamo, Tikipunga, Onerahi, Maunu, Raumanga, Kensington, Ruakākā, Waipū, Hikurangi and Whangārei Heads helps a local see you cover them and helps Google with searches like “builder Ruakākā” or “café Kamo”.
One tap to call, quote or find you
Someone with a flooded laundry in Tikipunga or a boat problem at the marina is on their phone, often with patchy signal. Call, quote and map buttons stay in reach, and the site loads fast on one bar.
Hours and the summer rush
Bream Bay, Tutukaka and the Heads fill up over summer. Hours and a holiday note sit in one place you can change yourself.
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.
Photos of your Northland jobs
A deck in Kamo, your boat shed at the harbour, your café at the Town Basin. Real photos, never stock.

Questions we get asked
Anything else? Email us and you’ll hear back within 24 hours.
How much does a website cost in Whangārei?
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 suits a one-person trade, a charter or a single café. For a wider look at prices, see our NZ website cost guide.
Do you have an office in Whangārei?
No. We serve Whangārei businesses by email and we do not have an office there. We work the same way for businesses across Northland and Auckland. 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 Whangārei, by email, so there is no waiting for a meeting slot.
Should the site spell it Whangārei or Whangarei?
We use the macron, Whangārei, which is the official spelling. Google treats both the same, so people typing it without the macron still find you.
I cover the whole of Northland. Can the site say that?
Yes. The page names the towns you actually travel to, from Dargaville to Kerikeri, and your Google Business Profile shows the same service area. Naming the towns beats “all of Northland” because people search by town.
Mobile signal is bad where I work. Does the site still load?
That is one of the reasons we keep it small. The pages are built to load on one bar, with no heavy video or sliders, so a customer at the Heads or in the Hokianga can still ring you.
