About Bronte

Bronte is a WordPress agency headquartered at 150 Victoria Street in Hamilton, with location pages for Auckland and Wellington. It has built WordPress sites since 2010 and is New Zealand owned. It has built more than 800 websites for over 215 clients in New Zealand and Australia. It has 10 to 49 staff, including Vidur, Sam, Jamie and Nik. Clients deal directly with a designer or developer rather than through layers of account managers. They are a Member Partner of the managed WordPress host WP Engine.

Web development is half their service mix, followed by UX/UI design and web design at 20% each and SEO at 10%. Their SEO work centres on local search, content and on-page optimisation, plus migrations that protect existing rankings. One recent nonprofit project moved a Webflow site to WordPress and set up SEO and schema markup.

Their healthcare web design page targets four groups: GP and medical centres, specialist and cosmetic clinics, allied health and professional bodies, and aged care providers. The design approach groups services around patient problems and puts booking, referral and enquiry links next to each service. It also uses structured fields so a change to location details updates everywhere. They focus on accessibility through readable type, contrast, keyboard support and labelled forms. Each build includes a logical heading structure, meta titles and descriptions, structured data, a sitemap, and Google Search Console and Analytics set up before launch. They do not guarantee rankings, and ongoing SEO is quoted separately. Clinical wording must be approved by the client's own advisers. The client owns the site, domain, hosting account and all form enquiries. Patient management systems and mobile apps are outside their scope.

The closest dental-sector work is for NZAO, the New Zealand Association of Orthodontists. They built a specialist finder, age-based information and a separate path for members. Other health clients include Morrinsville Medical Centre, Dilworth Hearing, The Cosmetic Clinic (a WooCommerce store combining treatment bookings with skincare sales), Tonic Health, Your Health New Zealand and Radius Care.

They are rated 4.8 on Clutch from 13 reviews. Tego, a medical malpractice insurer, praised their time management and value. Destination Cambridge saw traffic growth, and an agricultural equipment firm mentioned better SEO after merging several brands into one site. The most common review themes are fast replies, plain explanations and stable sites.

Prices on the healthcare page start at $3,000 plus GST for a single practice (four to eight weeks) and $8,000 for several services or locations (eight to twelve weeks). Projects with integrations start at $15,000 and take twelve weeks or more. Hosting starts at $50 a month, and managed hosting costs about $100 a month. Hourly rates are $150 to $199, with a $5,000 minimum.
