Why Businesses Are Choosing Dazzly Website Builder
Dazzly makes it easier and more convenient to create your own website. It's suitable for businesses of all sizes and perfect for NZ business owners or aspiring entrepreneurs who want to develop and launch a website right away.
Here are just a few reasons why New Zealand businesses choose Dazzly.
Dazzly is a Form-Based Website Builder
While most website builders aim to bridge the gap between web designers and end customers, many still lack the user-friendly experience of Dazzly. One of the main reasons that Dazzly is so easy to use is that is a form-based website builder.
A form-based website builder is considered much simpler to use for the average consumer. You don’t need to worry about coding or the difficulty of using a drag-and-drop interface. This helps to streamline the design process.
Dazzly couldn’t be easier to use. You don’t need to worry about meeting with IT specialists and web designers and conversations filled with technical jargon.
Most of us have filled out forms and uploaded images, so you'll quickly understand Dazzly’s straightforward, form-based process. Just provide the requested information and sit back as it builds your website for you. You'll get all the guidance and support you need from one trusted, 100% New Zealand made platform.
There’s no coding to worry about, with an intuitive user-interface that is easy to learn no matter your experience with computers. This gives our customers fewer things to worry about, allowing to focus on designing and developing the best website for their needs.
Dazzly is an easier website builder than the competition in New Zealand.
Time is one of the most valuable resources for any business.
The more time you save developing your website, the more you can put into other aspects of running your business. So, by making things as simple as possible, we help businesses save invaluable time and resources.
Thanks to our form-based design, Dazzly is the easiest option for small business owners to create a website from their home or office.
Users can create sleek websites with minimal effort, requiring much less input from IT and web design professionals. This means less time wasted talking to the various people typically needed to design a website!
There is also much less confusion about what is needed to build a website. Many small business owners attempt to build their own website, with the best of intentions, only to find the software is incredibly complex to use.
This can be very daunting. It may cause many to hold off on their website design plans as they are overwhelmed and confused by the process of building a website. The longer you hold off developing a website, the more customers you are potentially missing out on. It will also take longer to establish a basic level of visibility for your website online.
By giving our customers the tools to build a website from scratch, they can develop their own website at a fraction of the time (and therefore cost). They can also avoid the hassle of calling and working with a web designer.
Dazzly is a faster website builder than the competition in New Zealand
Dazzly has many technical advantages that allow us to deliver faster, more responsive websites for you.
The speed of a website can make or break the consumer journey, so we aim to deliver high speed websites that deliver the best experience for the end user.
We have full control over the code, servers, and network infrastructure. We don't outsource to third-party organizations to save resources. That gives us complete control over our technology and provides flexibility many other providers in New Zealand lack.
By handling everything in-house, we also offer the best customer experience for our clients and their target consumers too.
We deliver websites faster than the competition, no matter the device or location of your users – even in rural locations!
Why local NZ support is essential to being the best website builder in NZ
Dazzly is tailored to the New Zealand market. We're proud to support local businesses, giving them the tools to achieve their organizational goals.
Our customer support is a big reason so many businesses in New Zealand choose Dazzly. We provide local New Zealand support to ensure the best experience for our clients.
With local customer support, you can chat with a New Zealand native who’s an expert at helping people build their first website. They understand any issues you may be having and have keen insight into the small business website market in New Zealand. They’ve likely helped someone in your industry before, so they can also provide suggestions if needed.
They are happy to offer support and guidance on any issues you’re having with the software or any questions you may have about websites generally. Dazzly customer support staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and offer clear communication and suggestions tailored to your specific situation.
Businesses across New Zealand continue to choose Dazzly as their number-one website builder. Our software is one of the easiest on the market, letting customers create custom websites without any technical expertise.
A form-based system makes designing a unique website straight-forward, saving invaluable time and resources. Websites made with Dazzly are technically superior, with a fast and responsive design that offers the best customer experience.
We develop everything in-house, giving us the control and flexibility our competitors simply can't match. Our commitment to customer service is second to none, with local support in New Zealand ensuring the best experience for our clients.
Here are just a few reasons businesses across New Zealand choose Dazzly.
We invite you to sign up today for free and create a website for your business in minutes!
What you need to know about Free Website Builders
Whether you've just launched a business or want to market an existing one, your website is one of the most important ways to generate new leads. Investing time in your website can do wonders for a small business, even those with limited budgets or looking for free website builders. With Dazzly, you can create a professional online presence without paying upfront.
What other sort of investment costs little-to-no money, and primarily requires your time? Not much. But websites are different – they really pay dividends. And while it is worth investing some money in building your website, your funds are better saved for paid advertising or other forms of marketing. A lot of money can get spent on the arduous process of creating a custom website design.
That is why, here at dazzly, we have innovated over the years and have released a free online website builder that makes it easy for anyone to create a website free of cost. The traditional website creation process was not easy – but dazzly has changed that. Now you can, without any cost, build websites that will professionally represent your business and attract new customers.
However, there is still a large amount of education needed. Many business owners don’t know that easy, free website creator packages are available and accessible to everyone. It isn’t just dazzly, although we recommend you try our free website builder first – there are many other online free software tools that can aid with the creation of your website. Such as tools to generate logos or other imagery that you may need to create your free website.
Once the wider business community realizes the amount of free tools available online, they will hopefully choose to invest their own time and up-skill themselves in the art of website creation and design.
For those business owners that are apprehensive about putting on their artistic hat, consider how many people, of varying IT and computer skills, have found it easy to create their free web page using dazzly. It is something that everyone should at least give-a-go, before outlaying thousands of dollars into the traditional process and likely ending up with something of a lower standard. With dazzly’s easy free website creator process, you cannot go wrong, and you don’t risk any money by giving it a go.
You might ask – how is it that you can offer a free online website builder software without requiring a credit-card or payment up-front? The answer is simple – we’re extremely confident in our software and website creation process that we trust in giving you an open opportunity to evaluate and use the software and decide whether it is right for your business. If you can’t create the webpage easily then we haven’t given you the desired experience, but we’re confident that this won’t be the case!
Hence – we’re able to offer you access to our online web building site – so you can create that free easy webpage or comprehensive multi-page website for your growing business. The website design is entirely free to put together and evaluate, and our hosting plans are very competitive.
So if you’re looking for the best place to create a website for free, then consider an alternative way to create your website and use dazzly instead. You’ll enjoy the simplicity and ease of using our list-based website builder interface as opposed to the standard drag-and-drop. Even if you’re not naturally artistic or design orientated – we’ve truly made the website building creation process easier – and free!
How to create a website free of cost?
There are many ways to create a website for free. With online website builders such as dazzly, you simply sign-up and access an easy, free interface to make your website. Lets break-down the typical cost elements of a website and evaluate how they change when you embark on the free online web site creation process.
Cost of finding different providers. Website developers, graphic designers, hosting companies, and IT support to set up the domain (.com/.co.nz etc) and email (if you already have one). That's just the start. That's a lot of people to contact and a lot of time for a new small business owner.
Cost of curating graphics for your website. This is a time-consuming process of vetting multiple designers and comparing your brief with the sample work they produce (if any). These steps will certainly incur a cost (your time) but may also cost for you to see their samples depending on their design process. There is no doubt that using free web building sites is far preferable to this because they have integrations with stock graphics libraries and other custom functions to make this job easier. In the case of dazzly – our team has curated local photos from major cities around the world in order to make the job of selecting relevant photos even easier!
Cost of getting photos for your website. Similar to the above, getting custom photography and imagery for your website can be a real pain. With dazzly, you can use a range of stock image providers or upload your own, saving your day for more productive business activities.
Cost of building a website design. In the past, getting a website design made was never free. Website developers have always been in high demand. Now, with the advent of free web building sites, you can put yourself in the seat of the website creator and simply select the relevant content for your website. Skipping all the coding and technical work. Dazzly considers itself the best no code website builder on the market. We simply want to make things easier and without cost to get a website design created.
Cost of purchasing a domain name. While some cheap domain TLDs exist, they're often not recommended because they may not be relevant to your service area. Some aren't suitable for businesses. With dazzly, once you're happy with the free website design you've created, you can join our Pay Yearly plan, which includes the free registration of your .com/.co.nz/.com.au domain!
The above is only the beginning of dazzly’s commitment to being one of the top best free website builders around. We’re extremely serious when it comes to saving businesses money by enabling them to create a website free of cost. Dazzly is the best place to do that.
Why do you have to pay for website hosting and not entirely free web sites?
While dazzly is proud of the fact that we don’t charge up-front and that you can build your entire website design for free on our site, we still have to charge for the on-going service fee (including website hosting). You only have to pay this once you’re ready to launch your website. Before then, we prefer that you take the time to create the website that best represents your business without incurring any cost or feeling any pressure to subscribe to our service.
We feel that if you like our easy process to create websites, then you will naturally want to continue to build free web sites this way, and therefore, you’ll choose to stay with us – like so many of our existing satisfied customers with successful small business websites.
We are championing the small business website creation process and doing everything we can to reduce costs and make it even easier for those on a budget. Join us in our mission by inviting other small businesses in your area to give dazzly’s easy free website creator a go today!

Do you want to create a product selling website? Try the Product Store template!
Regardless of which template you select, you get the same, consistent, easy web site creation process. Don’t be intimidated about changing to the website template you wish to use.
So that bring us to the question of why website hosting or on-going service fees must be charged – here is why.
The first reason, is we have staff that need to be paid, and therefore we have to pass that cost on to the customer.
The second reason is that we rely on a large and custom built website hosting infrastructure. This provides your website with excellent performance , especially on mobile-devices. We have to pay for that hosting, and unfortunately it is another cost we must pass on.
The third reason is because we’re not standing still. We’re continuously innovating and developing dazzly to be the best of the free website builders. This innovation, research and development costs time and money, but you benefit directly from the outcome, even if it isn’t immediately visible on your website design.
In conclusion, while we would love to be a 100% free website builder, we have to charge a monthly fee for the aforementioned reasons. We know that our websites deliver a ton of value regardless of which industry you’re in or which service you carry out with your business.
Why would I want to use a free website builder tool?
With Dazzly you get a free evaluation period, giving you the time to build your website at your own pace. Once you decide to put the website live on a Domain, you can join our monthly or annual plan (for a discount!).

Small business owners love our instant site builder!
At Dazzly, we've been working behind the scenes to offer new users a package we've put together — the 'instant site builder nz' package, designed to get you off to a great start in your online journey.
Often is the case that people start a business together with a partner that can handle different duties and responsibilities. Usually the website is considered more of an 'administrative task' rather than a marketing opportunity. However, customers from the North to the South have told us that the final text and images are a combination of both partners efforts.
We typically see the more 'administrative' focused partner sign-up to dazzly. They then publish their first draft website with some text and images within several minutes. Dazzly has a small learning curve - it is the easiest instant site builder to use. Following this they will make several refinements and then publish a few more times to get things looking spot-on.
After the website content is finished and everyone's happy, they subscribe and join Dazzly's growing list of satisfied customers. Shortly after, they'll have their new website on their .co.nz domain. In about an hour and for a small monthly fee, they can take control of their online presence. With Dazzly, you also get a clear snapshot of your website visitor statistics. No more waiting days or weeks for a report from your web developer — see data anytime, on demand.
Finding the time where both partners can give their input is not easy, but it is worth the investment. The longer a website is online, the more reputation it will gain on major search engines such as Google. Additionally, with more time online, you have an increased opportunity to add content. Posting write-ups of recent jobs, customer experiences or other stories will help improve your search rank over time. Unlike using a web developer, there is no additional cost. You can take care of updating and publishing the website yourself with ease. By using dazzly, you don't need to go through the long and cumbersome process of getting them to do it.
New Dazzly customers can expect a call from a friendly team member to ask about your experience and see how we can improve things for you. We also offer a free phone or Zoom consultation to help you get the most from your website, with straightforward plain English tips. Additionally, we may offer you a custom email address. If you have subscribed to our newsletter, you will also receive tips and other helpful information to improve your website's SEO over time.
The instant site builder package lets new customers have a custom email address to complement their website. This means that you can use Dazzly as a one-stop shop for domains, email hosting and websites. Take care of it all quickly so your business looks professional from the start. Call us at 0800 112 942 or support@dazzly.co to take advantage of this excellent offer!

Can a website page builder actually make a quality website?
The short answer is YES, it is possible to make a quality website without a website designer. In fact, the potential for these do-it-yourself website (DIY) platforms is limitless, even when it comes to website design and functional requirements.
Currently there is a misconception that using a page builder may produce a substandard website or something inferior to the standard of a website built by a website designer. This is simply not true.
Dazzly is breaking new ground and is quickly changing this perception. By producing beautiful, mobile-ready, website designs built by the customers' themselves.
You can either spend 10 minutes looking up a local website design company and wondering whether they can meet your needs or budget, or you can spend 10 minutes using Dazzly and know that you will love the final website design because it will be all ready to go!

How do I get a wholesale business website in New Zealand?
Laura runs a wholesale food business in Auckland. When the pandemic hit, she knew she had to get creative and pivot. She needed to open new sales and marketing channels that could operate during lockdowns.
Laura doesn’t have a long history of customers ordering online. In her business, orders have almost always come via phone, sometimes by email and even some by fax. Laura’s customers, who are local retail stores, generally order based on their own end-customer’s demand. Features such as automatic re-order notifications weren’t applicable and other “bells and whistles” didn’t seem to be a good “fit”.
It makes sense, though. There will always be more retail and consumer-facing businesses than wholesale. Laura looked at several New Zealand website builders, and while some were appealing, none offered a tailored solution for wholesalers.
Laura’s needs were quite different than a typical ecommerce store website:
Simplicity and ease-of-use were more important than design. Laura’s customers had never bought wholesale food supplies online before – it needed to be simple and easy to use.
Flexibility to use “Product Codes” rather than Product Name. Laura’s customers order large volumes of product based off of codes, ideally this wouldn’t change.
Ability to hide the price. Customer-specific pricing would be desirable in the future, but currently was a bit excessive for Laura’s needs. Having a “price on inquiry” would be sufficient for this business case instead of showing the price to all website visitors. In wholesale, pricing is based on the customer’s order quantity, previous orders and other factors. It would not be suitable to show the price to public website visitors.
Did not want to accept payments online. Laura wanted to manually handle customer transactions and facilitate payment via bank transfer and other previously used means.
Having tried the international and local options, Laura came across Dazzly and signed up with the ecommerce store template.
After having used the ecommerce template for some time, she realized that again it wasn’t the best option for her and she reached out to our support team.
If you need help with any website question, we're available 24/7 — and a friendly team member can assist you at 0800 112 942 or support@dazzly.co
After a short chat with Dazzly support it was determined that she - like many other wholesale businesses looking to create a website, would be best suited with the Product Enquiry template.
Within a few hours of switching the template Laura had set up her own website. Having run it by her business partner Jane, they were both happy to give it a thorough test and then sign-up to Dazzly on the day.
By registering a .co.nz domain with Dazzly, they had a professional-looking website up in no time.
Within a few days of the website going live, Laura and Jane had shared their website with close friends and customers. Shortly after they were placing product inquiries through the website.
They also took up the offer to support custom email addresses. Now they can receive their wholesale product inquiries straight to their shared email inbox.
Talk about a digital pivot in a short amount of time.
Having now used the platform for over a month, both Laura and Jane are happy with the transition. Their customers have found it a breeze to put their wholesale orders through the website. By switching to Dazzly, not only have they saved time, but have made product ordering processes more efficient for everyone.
If you're a wholesale business considering a website, we recommend our New Zealand website builder option – Dazzly – which includes the Product Enquiry template. Backed by a reliable New Zealand-based support team, your wholesale business will be ready to get online and start selling!
