📄 Editorial Review

WebsiteBuilder.nz, operating internationally under the Website World brand, is a New Zealand website-building, eCommerce, hosting, domain, and business-management platform owned by Web Widgets Ltd. Reuben Jackson began developing the company’s proprietary content management system in Auckland in 2000, while Web Widgets Ltd was formally established in 2002. The business remains relatively small, with a team supported by a broader network of independent designers and resellers throughout New Zealand.

The platform has been used to create thousands of websites and is particularly well suited to small and medium businesses that want website management, online sales, email marketing, customer records, and operational tools in one system. Customers can build their own websites, obtain assistance directly from the company, or work with an independent Website World designer while retaining the same hosting and account-management environment.

The main product is a proprietary New Zealand-developed website builder and CMS. It goes considerably beyond a basic drag-and-drop site creator by combining website design, hosting, domains, DNS, business email, customer management, bulk email campaigns, eCommerce, bookings, memberships, inventory, and point-of-sale functions.

Online stores can support both retail and wholesale operations. The system handles multiple trade-pricing levels, physical and digital products, subscriptions, deposits, discount rules, gift vouchers, loyalty points, event tickets, member-only pricing, stock control, and synchronization between online sales and physical-store transactions. It is especially practical for businesses that want one database for customers, orders, products, vouchers, inventory, and marketing activity.

Shipping tools include rural-delivery detection, weight-based and destination-based charges, free-shipping conditions, courier integrations, and address-dependent delivery calculations. The platform also connects with payment providers, accounting systems, courier services, inventory applications, and marketing tools. API access and CSV import or export functions are available for more advanced workflows.

Website World does not charge an additional percentage on eCommerce transactions. Customers remain responsible for the normal charges imposed by their chosen payment gateway or merchant provider.

Businesses that prefer an open-source application can use PHP, MySQL, WordPress, Joomla, or Silverstripe hosting. These accounts include SSL, FTP access, phpMyAdmin, email services, database backups, DNS management, domain administration, and website statistics. More specialized PHP configurations, cron jobs, PostgreSQL databases, extra database resources, and dedicated processing capacity are available for projects with more demanding technical requirements.

Domain registration, transfers, renewals, parking, DNS hosting, professional email, website migration, custom web design, SEO assistance, training, reseller services, affiliate arrangements, and white-label solutions are also available. Qualifying charities and community organizations can receive discounted hosting.

A 30-day fully functional free trial is available for the proprietary Website World platform. Customers can build and test a website without entering credit-card details before deciding whether to activate paid hosting. PHP and WordPress hosting do not include the same trial because server, database, and FTP access are activated as paid services.

The Website World CMS is tied to the company’s hosting environment and cannot be exported as a complete working platform to another provider. Customers retain their content and domain rights, but moving away normally requires rebuilding or transferring the website into another content management system. This is the main vendor-lock-in issue prospective customers should consider.

The service is available internationally, with interfaces supporting English, German, Arabic, Japanese, Māori, French, Spanish, and Chinese. Product billing is available in NZD, AUD, EUR, GBP, and USD, making the platform practical for customers outside New Zealand as well as local businesses.

Hosted websites use responsive templates designed for desktop, tablet, and mobile displays. Customers can work with design wizards or customize layouts directly through HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. A newer administration interface was introduced during 2025, although some account and help information still contains older pricing or legacy technical references. The final price and included limits should therefore be confirmed during checkout, particularly for email-only services, domains, and customized hosting.
