How Montys Design can help your Business.
If you are a small business you have possibly tried Facebook Ads and Google Ads.
The common story we hear from businesses like yours is, “I run Facebook Ads, but the leads are no good,” or “I run Google Ads, but it costs a fortune for little return.” The reason this is happening is really simple:
They were never looking for your services in the first place.
Your advertising needs to start with intent.
Most people don’t click on the ads – or the people clicking on your ads are your opposition, robots, and some old friends from Nigeria!
We dont sell ads.
Montys Design will make sure your business is found on Google by local people – people searching for your type of Business.

Search Engine Optimization plays a vital role in the success of small businesses in New Zealand. Firstly, SEO increases online visibility and organic traffic. When a small business optimizes its website for search engines, it becomes more likely to appear in the top search engine results pages (SERPs) when users search for relevant keywords.
Google reigns supreme, with the majority of online business searches in New Zealand being conducted through Google. As a result, securing a spot on page one of Google can have a significant impact on website traffic and ultimately, success.
In fact, the first page of Google captures about 85% of all clicks – very few people look past page one.
Achieving a top ranking on Google’s search results is not a simple task. It requires a comprehensive understanding of search engine algorithms and the implementation of effective optimization strategies.
Websites with highly relevant content are more likely to rank higher in search results. Keyword research and optimization play a crucial role in ensuring relevance. By identifying and incorporating relevant keywords into website content, businesses can increase their chances of appearing on the first page of Google. Authority is another important ranking factor.
Search engines consider the credibility and trustworthiness of a website when determining its ranking. Websites with a strong online presence, high-quality backlinks are seen as more authoritative and are therefore more likely to rank higher.
User experience is also a significant factor in search engine rankings. Websites that are user-friendly, have fast loading times, and provide valuable and engaging content are more likely to rank higher. Optimizing website performance, improving navigation, and enhancing the overall user experience are essential for achieving a top ranking on Google.
Our SEO Services take time as we drip-feed content every week and build local backlinks.
But what exactly makes a good website? User experience and design play a crucial role in determining the success of a website.
Firstly, a good website should have an intuitive navigation system that allows users to easily find the information they are looking for. This can be achieved through clear and logical menus, search bars, and well-organized content – good web design.
A fast-loading website is very important as a lot of New Zealand people live in rural areas. If your website is slow to load it will not appear in the search results.
Keep in mind a lot of older folk have learned to use the internet by using Trademe – they love to click on links.
In short your Website needs to be fast to load and easy to use – and rank well.
A key mistake we see web designers make is the hosting they use. In New Zealand, you can afford to have a slow-loading website. With many Kiwis living in rural locations – Good Website hosting is paramount.
Montys Design use Google’s very own cloud server platform to ensure your website loads super fast. Site load speed is a key driver in the SEO world.
If your website loads slowly in a rural environment this will cause the person’s phone to ” Lock Up” This is bad for your Google ranking – and that person is not likely to visit your website again.
Slow servers or shared servers can result in a Google penalty.
