Thanks Serge for you prompt service in overhauling our website. You are easy to deal with and adaptable in going out of your way to come up with different ideas and making changes as necessary. We are more than happy with our new fresh look and would definitely recommend you to others. Thanks from the team at Balance Osteopathy Welcome Bay.

The minute I arrived at Serge’s office, my perspective on what our website could become was instantly transformed. Our website went from being a dated, ineffective page full of errors to a bright and vibrant hub that explained exactly what our business portrays.
Serge is always on the other end of the phone to answer your questions and was fabulous at giving me training on how to drive the admin side of our new website. It was one of the best decisions we have made for our business and I just wish we had moved to him sooner.

I was referred to Serge from SmartRange Ltd by my brother-in law who also uses this Web-design company for their business. Thanks so much Serge for recovering our previous website and creating a new fresh looking website on time and on budget. Nothing was too much trouble for changes and additions. I highly recommend SmartRange Ltd!

I love my new website design. The layout is simple and very effective with a fresh clean look. Serge has been wonderful to work with and was always on top of any query I had. His tutoring was great and he made it so easy for me to learn the basic operations of the site.
I would most certainly recommend Smartweb Design if you are in need of a new website or upgrading from a current one. I am very happy and impressed with my new site and all of the work that Serge does.

Serge asked us a list a questions and then away he went, building our fresh new website from scratch. When we saw the beginnings of our website, we were blown away. From one phone call, Serge had hit the nail on the head. We couldn’t have asked for more than that. We have busy lifestyles and Serge went above and beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend SmartRange to all our friends.

SmartRange completely re-built our website from scratch and introduced a new fresh look to our branding and we are thrilled with the end result. Serge’s ideas, communication and response time has been outstanding and we are continuing to use SmartRange for ongoing work for our branding and logos. Initially we spoke to a number of suppliers but SmartRange was an easy choice in the end.

Jordan Surfboards
After the first meeting Serge got straight away what I wanted out of my web site for my bussiness and then came back a week later with pretty much 90% on the mark and with a second meeting we ironed out the last 10%. He just nailed it and with really great feed back once the site went live. Serge then gave me lessons on how to up load content myself and gave me tutorial videos which made it really easy to do this.
I would recommend him as I had been.

Aquatek Fishing Charters
SmartRange designed a new website for Aquatek Charters approximately twelve months ago. You effortlessly grasped our objectives and quickly provided various design options that were all exceptional, to the point that choosing the one to run with, was the dilemma.
I now receive frequent compliments about the website from potential and current charter clients. They find our website attractive, informative and easy to navigate. These compliments come from both existing clients, and possibly more importantly, also from people new to fishing. Novices are often unsure as to the process involved in booking a fishing charter for the first time. Having visited our website, they seem well informed and inspired to make a booking.
The economic proof, is the fact that the number of enquiries and booking requests we now receive, frequently exceeds our capacity. As someone with only modest computing skills, the ability for me to subsequently access and change wording, prices, photographs, etc, on the site is easy and convenient. The link to our Facebook site also works smoothly, enabling me to make posts to Facebook that effortlessly drop into the website, automatically keeping it up to date. If anyone wishes to discuss this with me, please don’t hesitate to do so. There is a convenient link on our website!

I have had 8 websites completely built over the past 15 years by various expert web builders, including an NZ multi award winning website builder.
For my most recent venture I contracted SmartRange Ltd to build my website after hearing positive feedback from another business owner. I have been extremely impressed from first contact with Serge at SmartRange to completion of the website.
Business owners know exactly what they want and are not always able to articulate this clearly when dealing with a web builder.
I have found previously that perceptions are formed immediately of what the web builders believe should be portrayed rather than seeking to find the business owners agenda. Serge assumed nothing. Instead he asked many relevant questions which helped formulate and articulate how the website would look and feel and this enabled him to clearly understand and produce a website that certainly fulfilled my expectations and more!
Serge is the first web site builder I have ever dealt with that has really heard me right from the onset. This was significant for me as it meant no time wasting and getting on to the business of producing a fabulous website. He did all this within a 2 week time frame perfectly!

Construct Builders
SmartRange did a fantastic job. This is our first website and we didn’t know what to expect. Serge walked us through the process and helped us each step of the way.
The website they designed and launched for us is exactly what we wanted and their service made every step of the process simple. I would recommend SmartRange to any company wishing to create or update their website.

Euroblock
Euroblock have been overwhelmed by the prompt service and back up that SmartRange have given us. "What ever it takes"... is their motto . We can leave Serge with a brief and he always comes back with a solution that we don't have to re hash further down the track. Very cost effective ... highly recommended.

Professional, great communication and simple to use content management. Serge from SmartRange is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of design and understanding of the web. Once your website is live, Serge provides simple training of SmartRange's clever content management system. I have no hesitation in recommending SmartRange as a designer of excellent functional websites matched with great value hosting and easy to use self content management systems.

Willie's Dread Wax
I really needed something quite unique and edgy for my website. The end result exceeded my expectation - excellent value for money, a fantastic design to suite our niche demographic with all the features of a professional, upmarket and easy to follow site and online shop. I found Serge to be professional, approachable, knowledgeable and his expertise has been crucial in making this a success. I am also most impressed with his training and ongoing advice/support which is equally as important as getting a website live. Highly recommended!

The Staffroom Limited
We found SmartRange through Google and after phoning several Website Hosting companies settled on SmartRange Limited. Unfortunately we had received an undesirable experience with a previous web hosting company and were lucky enough to receive the guidance and support from Serge @ SmartRange that assisted us in moving forward in a positive manner.
He communicated in a professional manner and made the transition process easy for us to understand. Serge has an easy going persona who was always approachable and he kept us informed every step of the way giving us a variety of options.
The knowledge and information Serge offered, displayed his well developed skills and knowledge within the IT industry, we were confident of his abilities right from the beginning. As a result of Serge’s dedication and patience we were able to achieve our goals reaching the right outcomes well within the deadline.
We would definitely recommend Serge from SmartRange Ltd to anyone wanting an informative and educative service within the Website and Web Hosting industry at a competitive price.

Rise Dance Co
We had an old, frustrating, unattractive, time consuming website that wasn't working well for our business needs. It was limiting and didn't reflect our fun loving company very well.
We had met with several other web designers that were mainly interested in telling us what their service would cost. From the very first enquiry SmartRange felt different, it was all about "how can we help you, how can we make your website more functional".
Serge from SmartRange was so thorough in finding out exactly what we do and how we function and also what we needed from a website that we didn't currently have & what wasn't working. Serge was very determined to get it right first time so went to great lengths to check our processes with us first before starting with the build. He was so practical and systematic in his thought and approach and thankfully explained everything in layman's terms (we're dancers!). The after care has been amazing, SmartRange are so helpful and quick to respond, it seems there is nothing they can't do or fix and I feel they have gone well above and beyond our initial expectations.
We are incredibly happy with the service we've received from SmartRange and we are very proud of our new website, feel free to take a look! www.risedance.nz

Hi Serge,
This is just a quick note to advise that I've tried your services for a couple of days and I am extremely happy. I cannot believe I have found a website hosting company that is not only local but everything is so hassle free!
I can upgrade/downgrade my account, everything is at my fingertips in the Client Area and everything is done the minute I click the button. Invoices are produced immediately, I can make payment straight away and my account is upgraded/downgraded with such ease. Important emails are stored in the Client Area in case I lose them and instant information is available so I can check myself that I am on the correct hosting account through the compare plans page on your website. The CPanel for taking care of my website is easy to navigate and I can choose the plan I want to be on be billed monthly or yearly.
On top of all that....I receive great service from you with instant responses to my emails. I cannot say thank you enough. Well done to all the hard effort you have put in to making web hosting such a hassle free experience!

We were recommended SmartRange services through a business associate. Initially this was for photography work for our website. We were so impressed with Serge's expertise, we then commissioned him to rebrand our website. He completed this work with excellent communication, professionalism, and an easy going manner. We are more than pleased with the result. We would recommend Serge's services to any potential customer.
