Welcome to MyWebsiteNZ

 Hello! My name is Dixie and I own MyWebsiteNZ.com. I live in Lower Hutt in New Zealand. MyWebsiteNZ.com is not a business, it is a FREE* service for people with limited funds who would like an online presence to showcase their products and/or services. All templates are non-e-commerce (no shopping cart).

 I am a self-taught ❝strictly a hobby❞ web designer, not a professional. I am also an avid fan of digital scrapbooking. I aim to provide FREE* website templates for people with limited funds who would like an online presence (non-e-commerce) for their products and/or services. The only requirement is you contribute a small fee to ❛hosting❜ of your site. All MyWebsiteNZ.com's hosting is done by RADAR Network Services. To understand what hosting means, check out my ❛About Hosting❜ page here. Frequently asked questions about how my offer works is on my ❛FAQ❜ page here. SSL Security (https:// security) is explained on my ❛https:// Security❜ page here. Additional information is included in my ❛Terms & Conditions❜ here. My templates are designed for people who do arts, crafts, creative hobbies, have small hobby businesses run from home, eg lawn mowing, pottery making, porcelain painting, baby sitting, knitting, coffee clubs, etc.

 Besides providing a FREE* template, I will input your text and any photos into your chosen template. On average a website designer charges around $2000 to $4000 for just a few pages – the price goes up exponentially – the final cost determined by how many pages plus any additional requirements such as a gallery, contact form, seo, and other services, etc. Costs vary considerably from designer to designer. Some designers may charge by the hour (often upwards of $90+ per hour) for changing or adding content. There are also online website creation services you can subscribe to (also usually monthly) and build your own website, include a shopping cart with the ability to accept online payments and more. At this stage I do not offer e-commerce options.

 All the graphics and art work in all the templates collections styles are provided FREE* for your website. There is a heading image and a footer image in Styles 1-5 templates. My other templates have a graphic background with a matching theme colour. Much of the art work is ❛generic❜ so it can easily be used for a variety of purposes. All the art work in my template collections, unless otherwise stated, has been purchased for use by MyWebsiteNZ.com. A small collection of other graphics were found in the public domain with no clear artist attribution and without a royalty fee attached.

 I have combined my love of digital scrapbooking and hobby web design to create simple, practical website templates. Some of my templates are multiple pages and some are a single page, multi-section template. All come with a gallery to showcase your products and a working contact form. Contact forms are coded with your email address so a visitor submitting a contact form enquiry will not pass through MyWebsiteNZ.com, but will be sent directly to ❛your nominated email address❜ — your privacy is guaranteed! Also, your email address will be encrypted giving you protection from nuisance email bots trawling the Internet for an email address to spam.

 If you are looking for a quick product only template have a look at my ❛Budget Budgie❜ template here.

 All templates are written in HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, PHP, and jQuery. See my ❛Service❜ page here for the service I offer and the process of preparing your template. Also, pop over to my ❛Terms & Conditions❜ page here as my FREE* templates offer comes with a few simple conditions.
