About Groundwork Digital
We build professional websites for tradies, cafes, salons, mechanics, and small local businesses across New Zealand. A small NZ team. Flat-fee, one-off payment, no monthly fees — sites built to load fast, look good, and get you found.
Why Groundwork Digital
The Problem
Too many small NZ businesses get ripped off — paying $3,000 to $5,000 for a basic website, then hit with monthly fees on top. Or using a free builder and wondering why nobody can find them on Google.
The Middle Ground
A professional website that looks good, loads fast, and gets you found — without costing a fortune. One-off payment, two packages, no surprises. That's what we build.
Who We Build For
Plumbers, builders, electricians, cafes, beauty salons, mechanics — anyone running a small local business who needs a proper site. Based in West Auckland, working with businesses right across New Zealand.
Clean, Optimised Code
No bloated CMS, no WordPress to maintain, no unnecessary plugins. Every site is hand-built with clean code — which means it loads fast, ranks well, and doesn't need constant patching.
Why "Groundwork"?
A website is the groundwork for everything else. Google reviews, social media, word of mouth — it all points back to your site. Get the groundwork right and the rest follows.
The Business
Groundwork Digital trades under Waitakere Ventures Ltd. NZBN 9429053497727. Based in Titirangi, West Auckland, serving small businesses nationwide.
Meet Connor
Connor London — founder, Groundwork Digital. Based in Titirangi, West Auckland.
I started Groundwork Digital after watching too many small businesses get locked into expensive WordPress sites they couldn't update themselves, or tied into monthly fees for a site they didn't even own. There's a better way — and that's what we build.
I run the business day to day, with a small team behind me. If you get in touch, chances are I'll be the one who replies first.
What Working With Us Looks Like
A Small NZ Team, End to End
You deal with us direct the whole way. No account managers, no handoffs, no passing you around — we run the build from first chat to finished site.
Clear Pricing
Two packages: $749 and $1,449. All inc GST. Need something bigger? Get in touch — we build custom sites too. No hidden fees, no monthly charges. You know exactly what you're paying before we start.
Fast Turnaround
Most websites are live within two weeks. We don't drag things out. You've got a business to run — let's get your site up and working.
No Lock-in
Your website is yours. We build it, hand it over, done. No monthly retainers, no contracts, no "you can't leave" nonsense.
Available
We're based in Titirangi. If you're in West Auckland, we can meet for a coffee. If you're anywhere else in NZ, we're an email or phone call away.
Built for Google
Every website we build is optimised for local search. Schema markup, meta tags, fast load times — the stuff that matters for getting found.
