About us

The person you talk to is the person who builds it.

A website is only as good as the understanding behind it. When you work with us, you work directly with the people who do the research, build the site and answer your messages.

Who we are

Meet Julius.

Julius MaritzFounder, CraftConnect SA

Julius Maritz founded CraftConnect SA, which designs websites and Google listings for South African businesses. He does the research, builds the sites and is the person you deal with, from your first call to launch.

We work from Jeffreys Bay in the Eastern Cape, and with businesses anywhere in South Africa, in English and Afrikaans.

Why CraftConnect SA

You built the business. We help people find it.

CraftConnect SA designs websites and Google listings for South African businesses. You have done the hard work of building your business; our job is to help the people who need you find you.

Every site is designed for its business and researched before it is built: how your customers search, and what your profession allows you to say. The people who do the research also build the site and answer your messages.

  • Researched first

    We look at how your customers search before we design anything.

  • No middlemen

    The people who build your site are the people you deal with.

  • Nationwide

    Based in Jeffreys Bay, working with businesses anywhere in South Africa, in English and Afrikaans.

What we care about

Five things we hold to.

They are why we work the way we do.

  • Human first

    Plain, warm and honest. No jargon.

  • Tailored success

    Every business measures success in its own way, so every site is built around yours.

  • You understand what you have

    You own it outright, and we make sure you know what you own and how to move it.

  • Integrity at every price

    An Essential site is still work someone was proud to make.

  • Built for how South Africa works

    WhatsApp, Yoco payments and load shedding are part of how our clients work, so they are part of how we design.

Where SA creativity meets digital possibility.

That is the idea behind every site we make: real craft, built for how South African businesses actually work.
