Building Websites That Help Local Businesses Grow
At Wanaka Web Works, I create professional, affordable WordPress websites for businesses in Wanaka and throughout New Zealand. Every website is designed to look great, perform well on all devices, and help attract more customers through thoughtful design and built-in SEO.
Hi, I'm Wayne
I'm based in beautiful Wanaka and enjoy helping businesses create websites that look professional and work hard behind the scenes.
I work directly with every client from start to finish, taking the time to understand your business and explain everything in plain English—without the technical jargon.
Whether you're launching a new business or updating an existing website, my goal is simple: create a website you'll be proud of and one that helps your business grow.

When your website is live, I'm still here if you need me. From updates and maintenance to advice and ongoing support, my goal is to build lasting relationships, not just websites.

Proudly Local
Based in Wanaka, I'm proud to support local businesses throughout Central Otago and across New Zealand. Whether you're just starting out or have been in business for years, I'd love to help you succeed online.
"Let's Build Something Great Together"
Wanaka Web Works began with a simple idea—to help businesses and community organisations create professional websites without the high price tag or complicated process.
Over the years, I've built more than 30 websites for small businesses, tourism operators, tradespeople, community groups and charities throughout New Zealand. Every project has taught me something new, but one thing has always remained the same: I genuinely enjoy helping people succeed online.
I believe creating a website should be a collaborative experience. That's why I work directly with every client, taking the time to understand their business, answer questions in plain English, and build a website that reflects who they are and what they do.
One project that is especially meaningful to me was creating the Alzheimer's Otago website. It was a privilege to support such an important organisation by providing a modern, accessible website that helps connect people with valuable information and services. Projects like this remind me that a website can do much more than promote a business—it can make a real difference to a community.
Whether I'm building a brand-new website, redesigning an existing one, or helping improve a site's visibility on Google, my goal is always the same: to create a website that looks professional, performs well, and helps my clients achieve lasting success.
