We have partnered with NZ Largest data centers to bring you affordable website & hosting packages based right here in Aotearoa. Gain superior performance with our locally hosted solutions. We own our own redundancy and backup servers to ensure we always can control any situation that might arise.

At Hostbusters, we don’t see ourselves as Web Host Sellers or re-sellers. We believe in a providing an all in one service for Hosting + Website + Marketing. We are here to disrupt the status quo and offer services far beyond your typical hosting provider. Larger Scale business and Companies will have whole departments dedicated to Web Development, even some with dedicated teams for Marketing, Web, Social Media, print & Radio advertising! I know I used to manage those teams 🙂

Instead of just reselling the Hosting Space and collect a cheque – I feel there is a opportunity to “Bust” a hole in the “Host” market and provide additional services that I have 20 plus years experience in delivering. Hostbusters will be your Web Host, Your Graphic Designer, Your Web Developer, Your Social Media Manager, Your Marketing Manager on retainer when ever you need them.

We are located in Auckland, New Zealand, just north and up a bit from Middle Earth! Visit our contact page for a google maps link to our location.

We fully comply with and support the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007. This prohibits the sending of spam. We will remove any account found to be in breach of this Act.

With our Website + Hosting options Not only will we take the cost of building a website (visit our rates page for more information) but we include in your plan a more active approach to web hosting. We spreed the cost of building your website over 12/24/ or 36 months, but we also include regular updates to keep your website updated. Keeping your website current really helps how Google and other search engines see your website.

• WordPress Website
• Weekly or Monthly updates (depending on selected package)
• Access to reduced rates and savings off up to 60% through our partners and freelancers.

We got you! We operated on a trust model. Well get the work done within realistic outlined expectations of time frames. Well send you an invoice showing the work and the hours with our reduced rates. You can choose to either pay the invoice in full or have hours worked automatically reduced from upcoming time allocations. NOTE: We do offer Heavily Reduced rates for our customers along with a 10% discount for accounts to be paid within 21 days, and we don’t recommend leaving your website without updates for longer than 4 weeks.

Communication is key in any relationship. We understand the importance of clear and open channels of communication with our clients during all our projects. We don’t work normal hours and we are always available to answer questions or help you solve any issues with your website. We outline our key milestones and what you can expect on our Website + Hosting page just under the comparison table.  However a brief outline: 1: Domain Registration; within 2 days – including landing/coming soon page and initial emails set up. 2: Creative Process; within 1 week – Full Artist Draft approved. 3: Development; within 3 weeks – website ready for testing. 4: Testing & Release; within 4 weeks – website ready for launch!

Hostbuster operates on a trusts model. Once your website is complete we start sending you regular and weekly/monthly (plan dependent) backups of your website. These backups contain your entire website. Posts, pages, images, databases, everything you need in order to simply re-install a copy of your website anywhere you want (although this is not recommended for search engine reasons :P) We also set up up from day one with Administrator access to the account so you are always in full control of your website.

YES! of course we would love to help you entire the eCommerce market with your website and brand. However we do ask if this is something your interested in even at a later date, please let us know in the early development stages. As there are certain ways in which we might set up the website from the start to easily transition to that at a later stage.

Our naked hosting plans do not lock you into into contracts. We hope our quality of service is what convinces you to remain and continue using Hostbusters.

With naked hosting we try and make it simple we just supply hosting space for your domain hosted website. You receive weekly backups included but ultimately the development, control and maintenance of your website is in your hands.
