Where weirdworks.
One-of-a-kind websites for Kiwi small businesses. Every site is designed from scratch for you, then I host it, look after it and make your changes, all for one monthly price.
No templates. No setup fee. Your domain stays in your name.
Built for
TradiesCafésClinicsFarmsSalonsShopsLaundromatsThe delightfully oddYour business isn't a template. Your website shouldn't be either.
Most small business sites look the same. Yours will look like you, while still doing the boring important stuff really well.
Never off the shelf
Every site gets its own look, colours and personality, designed around your business and the people who use it.
Weird, but works
Fun on the outside, sensible underneath: quick to load, easy on phones, and a call button front and centre.
A real person
When you ring or email, you get me. No call centre, no ticket numbers, no jargon.
From nothing to something great in about two weeks
You don't need to know anything about websites. That's my job.
I mock up your homepage
Free, using your name, photos and reviews, so you see exactly what you'd get before spending a cent.
We have a quick chat
Fifteen minutes on the phone about your business, your customers and which plan fits.
I build it
You send a few details, and I come and photograph your place if you'd like. I build your site and send a preview link to check on your phone.
I look after it
Hosting, security, backups and your changes, every month. Just email me what you need.
The sensible bits every site gets
Works on every phone
Most customers will find you on their phone, so that's where it's designed first.
A big call button
One tap and they're ringing you, plus an enquiry form that lands straight in your inbox.
Found on Google
I set up or tidy your Google Business Profile so locals searching for you actually find you.
Fast and secure
Hosting, security certificates and backups are all included. Nothing for you to manage.
Changes made for you
New phone number, new photos, a price change. Email me and it's done, usually within a day or two.

Recent work
First weird and wonderful sites are underway
My first 25 clients get founding rates, locked in for good. Want yours to be one of the first here?
Hi, I'm Jethro
Wiggy Web Workshop is a small, local operation. When you ring or email, you get me.
I started it because so many great local businesses are invisible online, and the ones that do have a website often look exactly like everyone else. I make sites that are simple to use, quick to load and impossible to mistake for anyone else's.
No jargon, no surprise invoices, and you'll always know what you're paying for.
Questions people ask
Is "weird" going to put my customers off?
No. Weird means memorable, not confusing. Your site will have its own personality, but it'll always be easy to read, quick on a phone and obvious how to contact you. We decide together how bold to go.
What do I need to give you?
Your business name, what you do, the areas you cover, your contact details, and a few photos if you have them. A short online form takes about 20 minutes. No good photos? I'll come and take some with a proper camera.
How long does it take?
Usually about two weeks from our chat to a live website. Most of that time is waiting on details and your feedback on the preview.
Do I own my website?
Your domain name is always registered in your name. On the monthly plans you're using the site while you're subscribed, and you can buy it outright if you ever want to leave. If you pay upfront, the site is yours once the build is paid.
What if I already have a website?
No problem. I'll redesign it, move your content across and point your existing web address at the new site. Your email isn't touched, and the old site stays up until the new one is ready.
What happens after 6 months?
Your plan carries on month to month. You can stop any time with 30 days' notice, and your founding rate stays put for as long as you stay.
