Are you thinking of designing your own site, but don't know where to start? SiteBuilder is Freeparking's easy to use template-based website design tool. Choose from over 100 professionally designed templates, select the pages you want to have, and then add text and images to your pages. It's that easy! You can have your own website completed today. Looking to start an online store? No problem. Freeparking offers a SiteBuilder plan that includes a secure online e-commerce store. Visit our SiteBuilder information pages to learn more.

Make your site Mobile friendly

If your web service would be of value to customers on the move, think about adapting your site to be compatible with those little screens and hook it up to a .mobi domain. .mobi is a new global top-level domain established in order that mobile internet users can trust that a .mobi domain will lead to a site that works well for them. Learn more at our .mobi information page.

Money for (almost) nothing

We have revamped our long-running Affiliates Programme, allowing you to earn much more commission (up to $480 per sale!) just from having an affiliate banner or search box on your website. The programme now covers the full range of Freeparking products and most products from our Windows-hosting sister company 2day.com. With up to 15% commission your earnings will grow quickly. Learn more at www.affiliatesales.co.nz

Keeping it 100% Kiwi

100% NZ owned - click to verifyFreeparking is a 100% NZ company. Why is this important? A 100% New Zealand owned and operated business is far more likely to keep, and spend their profits right here at home in New Zealand. What does this mean for you as a Freeparking customer? It means that you're supporting a company that cares about the success of other New Zealand companies and that in turn you receive local service and support from people who understand your needs and concerns as a Kiwi business. If you would like to promote your business as 100% New Zealand owned, register at the 100% New Zealand website

We're Going Invisible

In December you will notice a change when you pay for your Freeparking services by Credit Card. Instead of being taken to the WorldPay website, you will enter your payment details on the Freeparking secure site and they will be authenticated by WorldPay in the background. We still will not be storing your card details anywhere, and this will let us make our checkout and post-payment pages much smarter. This "WorldPay Invisible" system is only available to merchants such as Freeparking who can pass a rigorous security survey.







The Art of Buying and Selling

Searching for that right business opportunity has never been easier.

Just over 5 years ago Richard O’Brien left the relative safety of a corporate environment to launch an online advertising and resource centre for the buying and selling of New Zealand businesses. The idea was seeded after weeks of finding only brief and obscure ‘business for sale’ adverts in the paper, knowing that there must be a better way to go about buying and selling businesses.

www.nzbizbuysell.co.nz was set-up to help connect business buyers and sellers. “It's available all-day any day. We set it up to generate greater details from sellers and allow buyers to be better informed and more selective when targeting their searches by price, type, and location-all for free. Sellers get to place ads online anytime and enjoy the exposure of a well-marketed and highly visited medium,” says Richard.

“As with buying a business, the choices we make are important to our success. Our Web Guru recommended that we use Freeparking because of their value, service and support — a good choice! We now run over 1,100 businesses for sale New Zealand wide and attract over 30,000 visitors a month.”
