Ellie Manahi

I’m a versatile graphic and website designer working across a range of industries, from health and wellness through to professional services and trades.

I help small businesses build brands and websites that look professional, feel aligned, and convert. A lot of my clients come to me either starting from scratch or ready to move on from a DIY website that no longer reflects the quality of their work.

I design and build on Squarespace, Webflow, and Shopify depending on the client’s needs, with a focus on clean, considered layouts, strong user experience, and making sure the site is easy to manage ongoing. SEO foundations are also built in from the start to support local visibility.

I’m based in Christchurch, but most of my clients are across the North Island, so I’m very comfortable working remotely and keeping things streamlined and collaborative from start to finish. My rates are affordable without compromising on quality.

Most projects include custom website design, copywriting, SEO setup, and handover support, so clients not only end up with a polished website, but also clear messaging and the confidence to manage it themselves.

For businesses needing more than just a website, I also offer branding and ongoing design support, including brand identity, social templates, and marketing assets.

My approach is collaborative and strategic. I take care of the structure, messaging, and technical side so you can focus on growing your business.
