Most websites don't have a traffic problem — they have a conversion problem
A lot of business websites look fine, but they're not set up to turn visitors into enquiries. I focus on clear messaging, strong structure, and guiding people to take action.
Fast Turnaround
Need it done properly, fast?
I offer a “Website in a Week” — a full upgrade designed to turn your current site into something that actually brings in enquiries.
No drawn-out timelines. No overcomplication. Just a clear, high-performing website, live within a week.
Selected Work_
Real results for New Zealand businesses. Every project built for performance.
Services_
Three clear options — from fast builds to fully custom projects.
No Agency
Overhead_
When you work with Straight Up, you work directly with me — someone who cares about your results as much as you do.

What Clients
Say_
Real feedback from businesses I've worked with.
Mark was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He understood what I wanted to achieve straight away, and the back-and-forth during feedback rounds was easy and seamless. We were able to build our new site in just a couple of weeks, and when we did run into a technical issue with our lead form, Mark was responsive, reassuring, and resolved it quickly. I felt like we were in safe hands throughout the process and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mark for anyone needing a new website.
Mark was great to deal with. We chatted about my idea for needing a website and he provided a proposal outlining the scope and cost clearly. Mark has great communication skills and I was able to collaborate with him on the style and content to get my site live quickly. I was after a quick turnaround and he made it happen. The site is live and I'm very happy with it. If you need a decent website made, ask for Straight Up.
Thank you Mark for improving our website. You are a great team leader and highly professional. We will definitely recommend Straight Up Websites to any business in need.
Mark was absolutely amazing. He took the time to really understand the website we wanted and executed it perfectly. He understood us straight away and knew exactly what we were looking for. We're so happy with the final result. Highly recommend.
Mark is a wizard. We had two conversations and the site was up and humming in no time. We've also been receiving excellent analytics since day one. Excellent service and very well priced. Highly recommend.
Straight Up Studio crafted an amazing website for me. Fast, on point, great communication. Exactly what I was looking for.
Mark rebuilt and updated our website so that our online presence better reflects the experience of visiting our centre in person. The site now ranks higher for SEO and is faster on both mobile and laptop, providing a better user experience.
Mark did an outstanding job developing my website. He handled everything from start to finish efficiently and professionally, delivering a clean and functional site on time. Highly recommend.
