Make your business the obvious choice
Locals look you up before they call. We build the website that makes the decision for them: clear, fast, and live in 5 working days.
Don’t let a dead link do the talking
You do good work. But when someone searches for you, they find an expired domain, a “coming soon” page, or a Facebook page with last year’s hours. Every one of those is a customer who rings someone else.
We turn what you already do well into a site that answers the four questions people actually ask: what you do, where you are, when you’re open, and how to book.

Work by our team
Design studies: how we approach different kinds of local business. These businesses are fictional, made to show our thinking.
A rural dental practice that answers “are you taking new patients?” before anyone has to ring.
A builder whose finished jobs do the selling, with a quote request one tap away.
A small-town café with the menu, hours and directions travellers need in ten seconds.
A physio clinic where booking is the obvious next step on every page.
Built to win the search, the scroll and the call
Websites
Your website is the first thing every customer checks. We make it work as hard as you do.
Bookings
If they can’t book in two taps, they book somewhere else. We connect the system you already use.
Found locally
People search “electrician near me”, not your name. We set you up to be the answer.
Care
Hours change. Holidays happen. Send us an email and it’s done, for one flat monthly fee.
No meetings. Just good work, by email.
You’re running a business, so everything happens in your own time. Timings run from your go-ahead and assume quick replies.

A small studio, built for small businesses
Rising Labs is an independent web studio. New Zealand is our first market, and because everything happens by email we also take on small businesses in Canada, Australia, the US, the UK and the Netherlands.
The idea is simple: a good website should help more locals find you, trust you and pick up the phone. Fixed prices, no lock-in, and a homepage design before you commit to anything.
Straight answers
Anything else? Email us and you’ll hear back within 24 hours.
Can I see what my site would look like first?
Yes, that’s how every project starts. Send us your business name and town and we’ll design your homepage within 24 hours and send you a private link. No cost, no obligation.
Do we need to get on a call?
No. Everything happens by email: a link to your design, a short recorded walkthrough, and you reply with changes in your own time.
How much time will this take from me?
Very little. Your homepage design arrives within 24 hours, and the full site is built in 5 working days. You just look at the design, reply with any changes and approve the wording. We write the copy and organise the structure.
Do you work outside New Zealand?
Yes. New Zealand is our first market, and because everything happens by email we also work with small businesses in Canada, Australia, the US, the UK and the Netherlands.
Can customers book online?
Yes. We link or embed the booking system you already use, such as Timely, Fresha or Mindbody, or add a simple enquiry button that lands in your inbox.
My domain has expired or shows “coming soon”. Can you fix it?
Usually, yes. If the domain is still registered to you we point it at your new site. If it has lapsed we help you re-register it or pick a new one.
Who owns the website and domain?
You do. The domain is registered in your name and you can take the site elsewhere at any time. There’s no lock-in contract.
What happens after launch?
Look after it yourself, or choose the optional US$49/month care plan for hosting, security updates, backups and small changes like new hours or holiday closures.
