No more faceless agencies. No more lengthy contracts. No more quick-fix solutions.
Just the digital marketing results you need, from people you want to work with.
A small but perfectly formed SEO turned full-service digital marketing agency. Made up of a close-knit group of expats, we take our can-do attitude and turn it into results for our clients. But with none of the nonsense that other agencies do – no account managers, no misleading reports, and no lengthy contracts.
In an industry of Goliaths, we’re David.
We’re the only agency offering a full suite of digital marketing services with all the results you would expect, but none of the nasty contracts. By giving people freedom, we keep them coming back. And we rebuild industry trust in the process.
Established in 2010, we’ve seen a thing or two at Digital Hothouse. We started as an SEO agency, however, over the past 13 years, we’ve continued to upskill our team and now offer a full suite of digital marketing services including AdWords, social media, content marketing and of course, SEO.
Whilst we have welcomed new members of the team over the past 13 years, the core of the team remains the same, helping us to build long-lasting relationships with clients, some of whom have been with us pretty much from the start.
Business goals change. We get that. Our agility means we can adapt to your objectives as they evolve, seamlessly shifting to focus on what’s most relevant for you right now.
Know exactly what’s being worked on and why. Get direct access to the people working on your project, honest answers to your questions and transparent reporting for peace of mind.
Our years of industry experience mean we can always find a solution. We make it our mission to be proactive – going above and beyond to solve your problems, not just present them back to you.
I formed Digital Hothouse in 2010 after six years of working for both agencies and client-side, focusing on SEO strategy development. I have a broad knowledge of digital marketing; however my specialities lie in Search Engine Optimisation, PPC, and Web Analytics.
Experience
Digital Hothouse was formed out of a need to do things differently – I was sick of working for agencies that are focused on their bottom line and seeing clients turnover once their contract ended. We have clients that have been on our books ever since we started; our clients aren’t tied into long arduous contracts; they stay with us because we get them results. If a client isn’t happy then we haven’t done our jobs and if we haven’t done our jobs, then why should a client be forced to stay. Speak to us and see how we can help.
I moved to New Zealand in November 2014 after nine years of working as a marketing specialist within the education sector in both the UK and NZ. Since 2010, I have specialised in Digital Marketing with a particular focus on SEO and content strategy.

I am passionate about SEO and content marketing and have written a wide range of news, blog and content marketing pieces that have achieved high engagement and delivered results.
I began my journey in the SEO industry in 2019 and have since had the opportunity to work with numerous agencies and was grateful for my opportunity for Digital Hothouse.

I aim to be more than just a service provider — I become an extension of my client’s team, working collaboratively to achieve success.
I have worked with Digital Hothouse since 2012, firstly as a developer but over the past few years, managing all website design and development for our clients.

I first met Paul in 2006, employing him in an agency in the UK. We worked on a number of SEO and Google Ads clients during this time and when the option came up to work together again, I jumped at the chance, albeit the other way around this time! I enjoy working across a number of mediums, SEO, Google Ads and Social Media ads – on Facebook and LinkedIn.

Mycommitment to growth and positive culture has inspired colleagues and delivered lasting results across multiple sectors.
In early 2020, we started working with Paralympics New Zealand, donating our time and expertise to help to grow their audience and raise awareness of the fantastic work they are doing here in New Zealand. It’s a relationship we are proud of and it’s just a little something we like to give back each year.
We also donate to charities throughout New Zealand that are close to our hearts.
