Are you a business owner based in Christchurch in need of a new website?

If so, you may feel like you should only look for a web design company located in Christchurch, assuming it will offer better service as they are local. However, is this really necessary? And is that necessarily true?

Well, let’s explore why you don’t actually need to use a Christchurch web design company, based in Christchurch. And why some companies around New Zealand are just as capable and skilled.

Websites are not just about pretty designs these days either. You want to find a company, that can create a great-looking, functional website, without a doubt. However, once launched, it doesn’t matter how awesome it looks or works if no one can find it right?

Times have changed. Website design has changed. In fact, traditional website design is broken! And furthermore, digital services have changed. There is no longer a need to rely on face-to-face contact all of the time.

Christchurch Web Design can be done from anywhere

At Back9 Creative, we have been designing and building websites for many years with an experienced in-house team, and we want to help business owners and marketing professionals make the right decisions for their businesses. And that means choosing the right web design company for them. And that doesn’t always mean they’ll be in the same town or city.

Just like companies who sell online all around New Zealand, an office or store in each town is a thing fo the past. Just ask our mates at Safety 1st NZ!

When it comes to web design, location isn’t essential either. Companies around New Zealand, including those outside of Christchurch, often have the same set of skills, resources, and tools to deliver high-quality websites. At Back9 Creative, we have clients from all over New Zealand, and technology has made it possible to communicate effectively without the need for frequent face-to-face meetings.

Our team is always available to have a phone call or video chat, and we’ve never previously had issues with this communication style.

Some other considerations include the following:

Competitive Pricing for Web Design in Christchurch

When it comes to web design in Christchurch, businesses often contemplate the benefits of choosing a local agency versus one based outside the city. While local agencies may have a deeper understanding of the regional market, it’s essential to recognize that agencies based outside Christchurch, New Zealand, can still offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality.

Additionally, agencies outside Christchurch often bring a fresh perspective and a diverse skill set, ensuring innovative and up-to-date design solutions. Choosing a web design agency based outside Christchurch can be a strategic decision, offering a blend of affordability, expertise, and a global perspective.

Remote work is now the norm

The COVID-19 pandemic seems like ancient history some days. But the reality is it has changed the way we work, and for many web designers, working remotely is now the norm. This means that you can work with a company based anywhere in the country, and still receive the same level of service and quality that you would expect from a local company. By broadening your search to include companies outside of Christchurch, you may be able to find a web design company that’s a better fit for your needs.

In-person meetings are still possible

While remote work is now the norm, that doesn’t mean that in-person meetings are a thing of the past. Many web design companies are still happy to meet with clients in person, and Christchurch is only a short flight away from many other cities in New Zealand. We recently completed a website for the NZ Flying Doctors, who are based in Christchurch. We flew up to meet them initially, and this set us off on the right foot. If you’re based in Christchurch but are considering a company from outside the city, you can still arrange face-to-face meetings if needed.

Web Design Christchurch, Wellington, or Wherever…

At Back9 Creative we approach web design in Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, or even on our own doorstep in Invercargill the same way. We look at what you are trying to achieve from a website and we make that happen. By adopting an Inbound Growth-Driven Philosophy, a website can deliver massive results and generate exponential revenue. Even when you’re not selling online. You just need to understand a website is a neverending work in progress. It is a sales tool. And a website is like a staff member.

We’re about delivering long-term tangible results, and not a set-and-forget move-on to the next project kind of philosophy, so if you think that may be for you, then get in touch. We’d love to have a chat.

Don’t let location be a barrier to getting a great website

In conclusion, location isn’t a factor when choosing a web design company. The availability of technology and communication methods has made it possible to work effectively with companies located anywhere in New Zealand. With Back9 Creative, you will be working with an experienced team with specialized skills, resources, and tools to deliver high-quality websites. Plus, we’re always just a phone call or video chat away and provide cost-effective services. So, if you’re in need of a new website but don’t want to limit yourself to Christchurch-based companies, Back9 Creative is here to help.
