Pricing
Here’s how we are different…
We’ll tell you exactly what your site will cost. You will know exactly what you are paying for and you won’t pay for any inclusions you don’t need!
We can’t be more transparent than that.
Refreshing, isn’t it? We think so too.
What does a website cost?
Our website pricing structure for affordable websites in Auckland begins with a standard cost to create seven pages. This package includes everything detailed in the standard inclusions for all Woodswork Web hosted websites.
In addition to these features, you can opt for extras like an e-commerce store or additional functionalities such as a project gallery to enhance your site.
The website pricing options also entail us preparing content for your website, which includes writing engaging copy, implementing on-page SEO, and creating a linking strategy to ensure your site is Google-friendly. If you prefer to handle content creation on your own, we can offer pricing tailored to that choice.
Additionally, we have options for a single web page if that better suits your needs. Get in touch with us to discover more about our affordable websites in Auckland!

FAQs about our plans
What is a WordPress Care Plan?
A WordPress Care Plan includes a range of services to mitigate the risk of your website being compromised and ensure the website is operating properly.
Can I do the WordPress Updates myself?
Yes, you can certainly manage the WordPress updates yourself, however, the updates are not always problem free and can cause errors on your site. As we are dealing with many client websites, we become familiar with likely issues and fixes.
WordPress updates are also only one element of a WordPress Care plan. Other areas include setting up multi-layer security and monitoring for vulnerabilities, security issues etc.
E-commerce websites require a minimum of our Essentials Care Plan and websites that we did not build require an Inherited Care Plan.
Can you guarantee my site won’t be hacked?
Can you guarantee my site won’t be hacked? No, we can’t. While we implement many elements to mitigate the risk of being hacked, there are things that are outside of our control that can impact your website. A WordPress Care Plan is also about ensuring that should the site get compromised, it can quickly be reinstated.
Can I become a Care Plan client if my website was not built by Woodswork Web?
Yes. Even if your website wasn’t built by Woodswork Web, in most cases we’ve got you covered. Our Care Plan Website audit enables our team to thoroughly assess your current website To be added.
