Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a website cost in New Zealand?
At Pulsebay, professionally built websites start from NZ$3,000 for a business site. Online stores and custom platforms cost more depending on scope. The biggest drivers are design level, page or product count, who supplies the content, and integrations like payments, bookings or logins.
How much does a basic business website cost?
A multi-page business or brochure website typically starts from NZ$3,000. A single landing page can be less; a larger site with custom design and content creation will be more. The calculator above gives you a range for your exact requirements.
How much does an e-commerce website cost in NZ?
Online stores start higher than brochure sites because of product setup, payments and platform configuration on Shopify, WooCommerce or BigCommerce. Catalogue size and selling model (simple products, variants, subscriptions or multi-vendor) are the main cost drivers.
How much does a Shopify website cost?
A Shopify store's cost depends on whether you use a customised theme or a fully custom front-end, how many products you have, and which apps and integrations you need. Answer the store questions above for a tailored Shopify range.
What is a headless or JAMstack website and does it cost more?
A headless build separates the content system from a fast custom front-end (often Next.js). It usually costs more than a templated site but delivers better performance, security and flexibility - worth it for content-heavy or high-traffic sites.
What makes a website cost more?
The main cost drivers are custom design versus template, the amount of content and imagery we create for you, total page or product count, and integrations such as member areas, bookings, payments, CRMs or custom APIs.
How long does it take to build a website?
Simple sites typically take 2–4 weeks; larger or e-commerce builds run 4–8 weeks or more. Your emailed estimate includes a likely timeline for your specific scope.
