About Us

We started Websites.ca Web Design in 1999 with the idea of building a simple software so small businesses could build and update their website themselves. We soon found out that small businesses were busy enough running their business and just needed an inexpensive solution and a company to take care of the design and all of the confusing technical stuff.

What We Offer

Our full-service website package includes everything a small business like yours needs. We can design a new website for you from scratch or update your existing website that needs a redesign. We take care of design, hosting, domain names, email accounts, on-page SEO, Google Business Profile, and support and updates year-round.

Why Choose Us

We’ve been building, hosting, and managing websites for small businesses in Winnipeg and across Canada since 1999. That’s over 5,000 websites in every province and territory, in every imaginable industry, and in over 800 cities and towns. Half of our customers have been with us for more than 10 years, and we still host and manage the website for our very first customer ever – that’s over 25 years!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much should web design and hosting cost in Edmonton?

A website doesn’t have to cost thousands of dollars with a big setup fee and months of back and forth. Our Edmonton web design package includes everything you need for $75/month. Try us before committing to a big setup fee.

I received a quote for thousands of dollars. How can you build a website with no setup fee?

We’ve been building websites for over 25 years and know how to get your new website up and running fast. It usually only takes us a week or two and we make sure your website looks great on any device or screen size. Try our service for free before paying thousands of dollars for a new website. If you aren’t happy and we can’t make it work, no problem, you don’t pay anything.

Are you really Canadian, or is your support department overseas?

All of our team is Canadian and our work is all done in Canada. Don’t worry about getting stuck on hold for 30 minutes and then being connected to somebody on the other side of the world who barely speaks English. Our customers get to know our team and we get to know you.

Will I show up at the top of Google?

We take care of what is called on-page SEO. That means all of the wording and phrases that the search engines use to figure out what your website is about are set up in the background of your website code in the titles, website description, and also the headlines of the pages. When your potential customers in your service area search for those words and phrases you will show up in the search results. If you aren’t in a very competitive industry where your competitors are spending hundreds or thousands of dollars per month on website promotion, like almost all of our customers, your website will show up at or near the top of the first page with our on-page SEO service.

Can I keep my domain name and email addresses?

If you already have a domain name or email addresses, yes you can keep them. We can even move them over to our system and manage them for you. One domain name and 5 matching email addresses are included in our $75/month service so we pay the year bill for you.

Do you take care of hosting and website traffic statistics?

Yes, we take care of hosting your website, that includes nightly backups, software updates, security, and optimizing your website to load lightning-fast. We can also set your website up with Google Analytics with the Google Site Kit plugin for WordPress so you can see all of the important website traffic and search engine performance statistics easily and conveniently.

Where are you located in Edmonton?

Our head office is 300-245 McDermot Ave in the exchange district. Let us know if you want to book a meeting to meet in person otherwise we can do everything over the phone to save you time.

Have you built websites in my area or in my industry?

Almost certainly. We have built over 5,000 websites in more than 800 cities and towns across Canada in every province and territory and every industry imaginable. Get in touch with us and we can show you some examples and we can give you some suggestions on getting the best results for your industry.

Can I update my website myself?

Yes, we use WordPress to build our website. WordPress is designed for people with no computer programming knowledge to be able to easily update their website. We can even walk you through how it works. Even better, almost all of our customers just call or email with updates and changes and we take care of everything – fast, and it’s included with our $75/month service.

What if I need more help with e-commerce, more design time, or more email accounts?

12 hours of updates and support are included without service. If you need more help above that, no problem. You buy extra blocks of 5 or 10 hours of support and updates and those hours never expire. An extra domain name is $30/year and extra email accounts are $15/month for 5 extra 25GB accounts.
