About Near2Me

NZ driving instructors spend hundreds on Trade Me ads, franchise fees, and directory listings — but still get few calls. Meanwhile, parents and learners searching on Google and AI assistants (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude) can't find the good local instructors.

Near2Me exists to fix that.

What we do

We build affordable, hyper-local websites for driving instructors — optimised for both traditional search engines (Google, Bing) and AI assistants (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Google AI Overviews). One dedicated landing page per suburb you teach in. The goal is enquiries, not just a pretty site.

Why this approach works

Specialists, not generalists

We build exclusively for driving instructors. Every template, strategy, and optimisation technique is purpose-built for how students and parents search for lessons.

Google AND AI optimisation

Most agencies optimise for one channel. We build for both search engines and AI assistants — so you're found wherever people look.

Honest pricing

No franchise fees, no revenue share, no lock-in contracts. One setup fee, one monthly subscription, and total transparency on what you get.

90-day enquiry guarantee

If you don't get at least one organic enquiry in your first 90 days, we give you a free month of Growth-tier work. We keep you because we deliver.
