My 2025 Website Round Up: A Year of Builds, Refreshes and Amazing Clients Across New Zealand
As the year wraps up, I have been looking back at all the incredible people and businesses I have had the pleasure of working with. From Squarespace website rebuilds and modern refreshes to content help, SEO improvements, creative collaborations and finishing websites clients started themselves, it has been a year full of variety. I work with clients all over New Zealand, Wellington included, and every project had its own goals, challenges and personality.
Some clients came to me needing their very first website. Others needed a complete redesign of an old one. Some needed their current site reshaped or updated for better ranking. Some needed new pages added onto an existing build. Some needed help finishing a half built site they started months ago. Others wanted a quiet tidy up behind the scenes. This mix is exactly what I love. No two sites or clients are ever the same.
Here is a celebration of everyone I had the pleasure of working with this year.
The amazing websites and businesses I partnered with in 2025
This year included an incredible range of industries. Engineering firms, trade businesses, charities, not for profits, creatives, health professionals, community organisations, authors and more. Every project was different, and the work ranged from full rebuilds and design overhauls to simple fixes, SEO improvements, content writing and everything in between.
Frame Group – engineering consultancy
Ruruku Engineering – project management
Craig Dalton Osteopath – healthcare
Hurricanes Alumni – sport
Rugby Players Trust – charity
Ground Up Homes – building and construction
Russell Properties – building and development
Signature Spaces – interior design
Friends of Te Papa – membership and not for profit
Mumtaz Parker – author and digital resources
David Beach – author and book store
The Great NZ Handwriting Challenge – charity and education

The Curlews – holiday cottage
The TreeChurch and Gardens – wedding venue and gardens
NB Transport Consultants – consultancy
Clamp Paving – construction and landscaping
Churton Park – community website
Total Site Works – construction and earthworks
NZ Laser Training Institute – service based training business with ecommerce
Plus many more behind the scenes including website coaching, content creation and small fixes for businesses like:
A flower grower
A hormone specialist
Other NZ small businesses wanting help with DIY Squarespace builds
Each one of these projects involved something different. Some were full overhauls of existing websites. Some were first time websites for brand new businesses. Some were modernising older sites to help with ranking. Some were tightening structure and content. Some were adding ecommerce. Some were about giving a business the confidence to manage their own website again.
So many clients found me through word of mouth
One of the things I am most thankful for this year is how many clients found me through recommendations. Friends, colleagues and past clients passing my name on. People saying “you should talk to Jodi” when someone mentioned they needed a website or a refresh.
It genuinely means so much. Every referral, every message and every introduction has helped me work with the most incredible people across New Zealand. I am so grateful for every single one.
What this year reminded me of
Every person and every business has different needs. Some want a designer to completely take the reins. Some want a collaborative approach. Some want a fast tidy up. Others want a complete rebuild. Some want help with writing and images. Others want to keep full control and just need support finishing what they started.
I work in whatever way suits you.
Rebuilds, refreshes, content writing, SEO improvements, image selection, adding new pages, finishing half built sites or simply tidying up what is already there.
If you need a new Squarespace site or want to give your current one some love, I would be thrilled to work with you in 2026. Get in touch and let’s chat.
