// who we are
BUSINESS FIRST. WEBSITE SECOND.
Neighbourhood Digital is run by Oliver Nathan, from Johannesburg. Before building websites, Oliver spent 15 years as a consultant in HR and learning, and he holds an MBA from the Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS). The work was always the same at its core: sit down with a business, understand the problem underneath the one on the table, and build something practical that fixes it.
Every website here starts the same way. Anyone can make a website now, with AI or a drag-and-drop builder, and we use AI too where it saves time. What those tools can't do is ask the right questions about your business. We do that first, then build the site around the answers. No miracles promised. Just real problems, properly understood and properly solved.
Most of our clients are South African small businesses, and some are further afield. No account managers, no offshore handoffs. You deal with Oliver.
// the process
HOW IT WORKS.
WE TALK.
Before any design, we get to know your business: what's working, what isn't, and what the site needs to fix. No brief, no jargon, no decks.
WE BUILD.
Clean, fast, on-brand. We handle every technical detail.
WE LAUNCH.
Live in 1–2 weeks. Domain, hosting, go-live, all sorted.
WE HAND IT OVER.
Update your own content in a Google Sheet. No new system to learn.
// pricing
KNOW THE COST UPFRONT.
// You know the price before we start. No surprises.

// What is hosting? Your website is a set of files. Hosting is the always-on computer (a server) that stores them and shows them to anyone who types in your address, at any hour. Without it, your site has nowhere to live. It's a monthly cost for the same reason electricity is: the server has to stay on and be looked after the whole time. Hosting on its own is R150 a month. For R350 you get Hosting & Care, which adds someone watching the site, same-day fixes and monthly speed checks. Just starting out with a new site and few visitors? Start on R150 and move up whenever you want the extra support.
// the one-off website

YOUR DOMAIN, SORTED
We'll register it for you at cost, with no markup, or connect one you already own. It's yours. Not ours.

Already using Fresha, Dine Plan, Calendly or similar? We'll embed your booking system directly into your site.
// Need more than that? Other services are available. If you need a new domain, we buy it for you and charge exactly what it costs, with no markup. Email hosting is available on request. And if your business needs something bigger or more complex, we build fully custom websites for that too, still from scratch and never from a template. Tell us what you need and we'll quote it upfront.
// frequently asked questions
// QUESTIONS, ANSWERED.
We build every site fresh on our own modern platform, rather than editing an existing site. This means faster load times, better security, and no dependence on outdated plugins or themes. If you already have content (text, images, pricing), we'll move all of it across for you. You lose nothing except the slow, clunky parts.
Yes. We build all our sites on one modern platform so we can offer fast turnaround, flat pricing, and reliable support. Think of it like moving to a nicer building rather than renovating an old one. Your content, branding and domain all move across with you.
Your website is a set of files. Hosting is the always-on computer (called a server) that stores those files and shows them to anyone who types in your address, at any hour. Without it, your site has nowhere to live. It's a monthly cost for the same reason electricity is: the server has to stay on and be looked after the whole time. You choose between two plans. Hosting alone is R150 a month: your site stays live, with SSL and security updates. Hosting & Care is R350 a month and adds someone watching your site, same-day fixes if something breaks, and monthly speed checks. A brand-new site with few visitors can start on R150 and move up whenever you want the extra support.
We host it for you as part of your monthly plan. This is included in Hosting (R150/month), Hosting & Care (R350/month) or Retainer (from R750/month). It means your site stays fast, secure, and online with zero effort from you.
Not while we're looking after it. Hosting with us is part of every site we build, because it's how we keep your site fast and secure, and how we fix it quickly if something breaks on Hosting & Care. Our sites also need a more modern type of hosting than most traditional hosting companies offer. The site files are still yours, though. If you ever decide to move on, we send you the files and you can host the site yourself. You're always welcome to keep your domain name registered wherever you like; domain and hosting are two separate things, and we'll help you connect them.
Security is one of the biggest reasons we build and host the way we do. Our platform runs on modern infrastructure with automatic security patches, encrypted connections (SSL), and built-in protection against common attacks, all included as standard, with no extra setup or plugins needed. This is very different from older platforms like WordPress, where outdated themes and plugins are one of the most common ways small business sites get hacked. We keep everything updated behind the scenes so you don't have to think about it. If anything ever does go wrong, it's covered under Hosting & Care. We'll sort it, fast.
You can update content that's designed to change often (prices, products, services, team members, and similar repeatable information) through a simple Google Sheet that updates your site automatically. Design changes, new pages, or new features fall under our retainer or project work, since that's where our ongoing support and craft come in.
Ongoing changes, content updates beyond what your Google Sheet covers, small design tweaks, troubleshooting, and priority support, so your site keeps working hard for you long after launch.
Yes. The site files, your content, your brand and your domain are all yours. Hosting stays with us for as long as we look after your site, and if you ever decide to leave, we send you the files so you can host it yourself. No lock-in, and no fee to get your own site back.

// in their words
5.0 on GoogleSharlee R, ChangeX Academy of BusinessI got my website designed by them and it honestly was such a seamless process. My website came out just how I wanted it to look and feel and Oliver's service and attention to detail was just amazing. I would definitely recommend them.
Shandre T, MTKP DesignsWe had been stuck in digital limbo for over 3 years with our website under construction, unable to find anyone willing or capable of redoing it. Working with Oliver Nathan at Neighbourhood Digital was a complete game-changer.
Oliver had a live mock-up ready for us within hours, and the entire website was fully built and ready in just one week. His communication throughout the process was incredible, he was completely hands-on and executed every change seamlessly. On top of that, he handled our hosting and sorted out our email configuration in a matter of days.
If you need a fast, reliable, and exceptional web developer, look no further than Oliver and Neighbourhood Digital. Highly recommended!
“DO I EVEN NEED A WEBSITE IF I'M ON INSTAGRAM?”
Yes and no. Instagram gets you seen; a website gets you hired. Posts disappear in hours. A website shows up in searches, stays live around the clock, and gives people a place to find you and get in touch. We build them at a flat rate, with no contracts and no surprises.
