WordPress Website Rebuilds Auckland
Your website deserves more than a quick touch-up — it deserves a fresh start that reflects how your business has grown. Kiwi Web Design helps Auckland businesses rebuild their WordPress sites into fast, modern, AI-ready websites that actually convert visitors into customers.
When Should You Rebuild vs Refresh Your Site?
It’s one of the most common questions we get from small business owners: Do I need a full rebuild or just a small update?
If your site feels outdated, loads slowly, or doesn’t perform well on mobile — it’s often time for a rebuild, not just a refresh.
A refresh is ideal when:
You’re happy with the structure and layout, but just need new photos, text, or colours.
You’ve recently updated your brand and want to reflect it visually.
The site still loads fast and functions well technically.
A rebuild makes more sense when:
Your site is over 4–5 years old and feels clunky or slow.
You’re stuck with an old theme that’s hard to edit or not compatible with new plugins.
Your SEO rankings have dropped and your conversions are low.
The design or content no longer fits your business goals.
At Kiwi Web Design, we’ll audit your current WordPress setup and tell you honestly whether a refresh or rebuild is the smarter move. No jargon — just straight answers from local experts.
Why Choose a WordPress Rebuild
A rebuild lets you start with a clean foundation using today’s best practices and tools:
Modern design: Clean layouts built with Elementor Pro.
Mobile-first performance: Optimised for all devices and Google’s Core Web Vitals.
AI-ready architecture: Structured for AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation).
Better user experience: Easier navigation, faster forms, and clear calls to action.
For you, this means fewer tech headaches and more customer enquiries.

Frequently Asked Questions – WordPress Rebuilds
How do I know if my website needs a rebuild?
If your website is over 4 years old, loads slowly, or isn’t mobile-friendly, it’s usually time for a rebuild. We’ll audit your site first and recommend whether a refresh or rebuild makes more sense.
What’s the difference between a refresh and a rebuild?
A refresh updates your design and content while keeping your existing structure. A rebuild creates a new, optimised foundation — perfect for outdated or hard-to-edit sites.
Will a rebuild affect my Google rankings?
If done right, a rebuild improves SEO — not hurts it. We preserve your URLs and metadata while improving technical SEO, so your rankings often go up post-launch.
Can you migrate my old content?
Yes! We migrate your pages, images, and blog posts safely to your new site without losing data or SEO value.
How long does a rebuild take?
Most rebuilds take 3–5 weeks depending on size and complexity. We’ll give you a clear timeline before starting.
Do you offer hosting and maintenance?
Absolutely. All rebuilds include free hosting for the first year, plus optional ongoing maintenance and support packages for peace of mind.
