A Bit About Us
Currently based in Southland, NZ, Jodie and Shea are raising their young family alongside Jodie’s first baby WebDesignIT.
WebDesignIT has been growing since 2007, first growing business in Australia, on the Gold Coast, and then Perth, and surrounding areas. At the same time the business was growing clients throughout New Zealand.
The online world and modern technology makes it extremely easy for us to work with clients worldwide. With video messaging software like Google Meet and Zoom for meetings we very rarely need to meet in person unless we can and then it’s always nice to have a cuppa and connect.
Jodie now has a couple of guys who help with the behind the scenes work allowing her to juggle all other areas of life, but Jodie still remains the face, and heart of the business.
Meet Jodie
JODIE ROSS
Bachelor of Digital Media (BDM)
I believe in doing it right the first time! Growing up on a large farm in NZ taught me great work ethic, it’s always kept me grounded and I love having my bare feet planted deep in mother nature, usually on the Beach or in the Ocean. After 3 years study I was qualified with my Degree in Digital Media and spent the next 10+ years living in Australia, working in the web design industry and learning all the tricks of the trade from many avenues. I love learning, continually researching and if there is something I don’t know, I seek to find the answers – I’ve always been the inquisitive type.
I feel extremely lucky to have worked in the past for 2 large web design companies in Australia who had big emphasis on growth, through training of staff and developing their business model to continually improve services to their clients, and I was then able to provide similar services to my clients. They’ve allowed me to work on hundreds of web projects for companies all over the world which has provided experience, skills and opportunity. When it comes to web design I feel blessed to have a strong intuition which does help when listening, understanding and interpreting a clients ideas and purpose to make that vision come to life.
“I absolutely love watching a clients vision come to fruition and grow into existence.”
Working with Jodie was an absolute pleasure creating our vision for our website. We greatly appreciated the in-person service which allowed us to thoroughly discuss and plan the upgraded website. Jodie’s professionalism, attention to detail and commitment to understanding our needs were evident throughout the process.
Questions were answered promptly, and nothing was an issue for Jodie, making the whole process stress free. Jodie had valuable insights that enhanced the functionality and aesthetic appeal of our website.
We thank you Jodie for your outstanding support and dedication to our project that we couldn’t be happier with. We look forward to working with you in the future and have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking for website development or upgrade.
Jodie designed us a quality website that continues to bring us new customers and work.
The process was a breeze, and with support only an email away, any issues or edits are sorted easily.
We would highly recommended Jodie of WebDesignIT as she is friendly, easy to work with and offered great idea’s & suggestions to better our online presence.
Absolutely loving the new website thanks to Jodie Ross @ WDIT.NZ
I’ve worked with Jodie in the past and wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again! It’s been so valuable to my business.
Thanks for all your hard work and I look forward to continuing to work with you in the future .
I own and run a small homestay accommodation facility in Southland, New Zealand. It has been very successful thanks to the website created by WebDesignIT. When people are looking to stay and rather than book through an agency, they come directly to me through the website. Recently, there was a huge demand for a local event due to the publicity on the website. I have had an IT colleague look at the website and he told me that it is perfect. I will not be changing my provider as the service is prompt, professional and friendly.
I have been working with Jodie for nearly two years now and she has made our IT journey so smooth.
She explains information to me in a way I can understand, she actually helps me write what I need to say on my website and gives me great ideas.Nothing is ever an issue to her, although a very busy lady she always gets the job done in great time, their are no delays.
I really enjoy my relationship I have working along side Jodie and I look forward to working with her in the future also
We were referred to Jodie through a work friend and her website design is second to none! We had our new website built by Jodie at Web Design IT and she knew what people in our industry would be looking for with ease of use within a website that has a large catalogue of items.
The process of communication with Jodie was made easy as she is understanding and conveys her message clearly, so it made the whole process of putting ideas in place and building the website, an easy and stress free process.
Jodie gets people and what they want and need for their business. In addition to this, she has a knack with words, which helps with website SEO, digital marketing ideas and social media strategies, which will lead traffic to your website.
We highly recommend Jodie for any website design and digital marketing strategies you need for your business, small or large.
We’ve found our website to be the main source of finding work. Jodie was able to get our website up and running very quickly and drove traffic to our site so we could immediately start receiving business enquiries, Jodie managed our website to make sure we ranked high in Google for our desired keyword phrases.
We were very happy with artwork and layouts and Jodie was always contactable and returned calls. Jodie also did us professional business cards and our main shop front signage. Marine stainless highly recommends that if your starting up business or updating one to get Jodie to do a package straight up, to get a major head start we believe a great website is crucial for a business to succeed.

I have a Business Directory Fast Online Direct, I had a few people thinking they could build my Business Directory in the past and have it usable and up and running for us.
I was hitting my head against a brick wall until I had Jodie start putting it together and now I have a great Business Directory, completely usable and growing everyday. Jodie’s work on my directory was endless and she continues to support me and keeps my directory up-to-date at all times.
For an excellent website builder and the best customer support service you can not get a better designer than Jodie, she is honest, reliable and so affordable. Thank you for your excellent services Jodie.
We approached Web Design IT to create a logo for our new up-and-coming exciting business, Cromwell Music. We approached Jodie with our very basic ideas to give her an insight of what we were looking for, Jodie took that idea and ran with it!! We were extremely impressed with the ideas that Jodie came back to us with and the time efficiency that she did so, her fun & creative approach took our logo, and our business, to the next level of professionalism.
Jodie made the process of creating a logo stress free, as she really knew what our customer base would want and has a way of explaining things that is easy to understand.
We have had some really positive feedback since Jodie created our logo, which has created more popularity for our Facebook page, and given other marketing material a more professional touch.
We would definitely recommend Jodie and Web Design IT to anyone who is looking for any Web & Graphic Design needs.
People are finding me in Google and I think yay Jodie must be doing something!
