Auckland based · Working with clients throughout New Zealand
Some clients need a completely new website. Others need to replace an outdated or inaccessible site, while some only need practical improvements to what they already have. EMbarks can help determine the most sensible way forward.
A professional website designed and built from the ground up around your business, organisation or personal project.
For websites that are outdated, inaccessible, tied to a previous provider or no longer suitable for the organisation that relies on them.
Practical help for an existing Wix or WordPress website that needs clearer content, responsive fixes, better foundations or ongoing management.
You don’t need to arrive with the website already figured out. Many clients know they need something better without yet knowing what it should look like or how it should be organised. EMbarks can help work through the examples, priorities, platform and practical direction with you.
From local service businesses and construction companies to tourism and organisational websites, EMbarks designs around what each client needs to communicate, manage and achieve.

Te Tii (Waitangi) B3 Trust needed to replace a website it could no longer properly access or safely rely on. EMbarks helped restore control of the organisation’s online presence, rebuild the website and reorganise important information for beneficiaries and other visitors.
The result was a secure, responsive and more manageable website designed around the Trust’s history, activities, notices, registrations and governance resources.
A website the organisation could securely control, understand and continue developing as its needs changed.
You don’t need to arrive with a finished design or technical brief. We can work through what your website needs to achieve, what information it should contain and the most practical way to build it.
The exact process changes with each project, but these are the main stages you can expect.
We work out what the website needs to achieve, who it needs to serve, what already exists and what a sensible project scope looks like.
We organise the pages, navigation and information so visitors can quickly understand what you do, find what they need and know what to do next.
The website is designed and built in Wix Studio or WordPress, with the layout, imagery and visual direction developed around your business rather than forced into a generic template.
Pages are reviewed across desktop, tablet and mobile, with practical foundations for page titles, search visibility, accessibility and good site structure.
We complete final checks, connect or configure the domain where required, confirm SSL and essential settings, and make sure you understand the website you now have.
If you need further changes, troubleshooting, content updates or guidance later, EMbarks can continue supporting the website as your needs evolve.
Whether you need a new website, need to replace one that’s no longer working for you, or simply want to improve what you already have, tell me a little about the situation and we can work out a practical next step.
No obligation — just a practical conversation about what you need.
