Your website, up and running today.
Selling cakes or running a company, we make getting online simple. Pick a name, choose a plan, and we will help with everything else.
Tell us the name you would like. We will check it and help you register or connect it.
Getting started
Up and running quickly
We have deliberately kept this short. Fewer steps, and a person to help if anything is unclear.
Pick a plan
Start, Grow or Scale. If you are not sure, tell us what you are building and we will suggest where to begin. You can change plans later.
Talk to a real person
We are finishing our self-serve sign-up, so for now you get a human. Tell us your domain and plan, and we will get your account set up.
We set it up with you
WordPress or your own files, your domain connected, and your padlock (SSL) switched on. Then a short checklist takes you to a live website.
What you get
We take care of the hard parts
You focus on your business or your ideas. The technical work is handled, and explained in plain English when you want to know.
Fast NVMe storage
Every plan runs on NVMe storage, so your pages are served quickly without you tuning anything.
Free SSL on every plan
Your visitors see a secure site. We issue the padlock and renew it automatically.
Support from real people
Chat, email or WhatsApp during New Zealand and Pakistan business hours. Not a ticket black hole.
Daily automated backups
Your site is backed up every day, and you can restore it in a click. Retention depends on your plan.
CDN included
Your site is served through Cloudflare's network, so it stays quick for visitors far from the server.
We help you move
Already have a website somewhere else? We will help move it across, and you choose when to switch.
Your dashboard
A simple place to run everything
No confusing menus. A short checklist takes you from signing up to a live website, and everything after that is a click or two away.
Diagnostic site checks
If your site breaks, we look at what changed and explain it in everyday words, with a suggested fix you can undo.
Plain-language detail
Technical explanations are always one click away, never in the way. You decide how much we do on your behalf.
A short checklist
A simple list takes you from signing up to a live website, with everything after that a click or two away.
