Discovery
A real conversation about your business, your goals, and your audience. We ask the questions you haven't thought of yet.
Proposal
We scope every deliverable and put it in writing - timeline, pricing, and exactly what's included. No surprises once work starts.
Build
We build on a private staging site and keep you in the loop. You review, give feedback, and sign off before anything goes live.
Launch
We set up Google Analytics, Search Console, and your Business Profile - then go live together. We train you on the CMS and stay available long after.
Perfect for small businesses that need a solid online presence without the big upfront cost.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a website cost in New Zealand?
Flatout's packages start from $2,500 + GST for a Starter site, $4,500 + GST for a custom-designed Business site and $9,500 + GST for eCommerce, each with hosting from $50 + GST a month. Every project gets a written brief with a fixed scope before work starts.
How long does a website take to build?
A standard business website typically takes 4 to 8 weeks from design sign-off. eCommerce and custom builds take longer; you get a realistic timeline in the proposal.
Will I be able to update the website myself?
Yes. Every package includes CMS access where needed, and we train you before launch. You can add pages, change copy and upload images without touching code.
Do you work with businesses outside Invercargill and Dunedin?
Yes. We are based in Dunedin and work with clients across Southland, Otago and the rest of New Zealand, plus a few in Australia. Most of the work happens by phone, email and screen share.
