Websites ยท Markham and the GTA
Websites for small businesses in the GTA
Fast, phone-first websites for small businesses, set up to be found on Google and to answer enquiries on their own. Three packages from $899, delivered in two to six weeks.
A small business website has two jobs: to be found by people searching for what you do, and to turn those visitors into enquiries. We build sites that do both, from a studio in Markham, for businesses across the Greater Toronto Area. Every site is built for phones first and loads fast, because that is how most of your customers will see it.
We are an AI and software studio first, and it shows in the websites: the larger packages come with automations built in, so an enquiry that arrives at 11 pm gets a helpful reply within a minute instead of waiting for the morning.
Three packages
All prices are in Canadian dollars, plus 13% HST. Our pricing page has the same packages side by side, with every line compared.

In every package
- Domain, SSL certificate and business email set up
- Built for phones first, and fast
- Spam protection and backups
- A privacy policy page
- Google Search Console, a sitemap and Google Analytics, so you can see who finds you and how
Getting found on Google
Growth and Premium are where a site starts working for local search:
- Growth sets up your Google Business Profile and targets one city.
- Premium adds keyword research, schema markup (the structured data search engines and AI assistants read), up to three service or location pages, and AI visibility: the site set up so ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity can recommend you by name.
Automations included
Our own work, built into the site rather than bolted on later:
- Instant reply (Growth and Premium): every enquiry gets a helpful reply within a minute, written from your own pages.
- Lead tracker and review requests (Premium): every enquiry logged with a reminder if nobody follows up in two days, and a friendly ask for a Google review after each job.
- Booking and reminders (Premium): online booking synced to your calendar, with text and email reminders that cut no-shows.
- Quote drafts (Premium): quote-form answers become a drafted quote in QuickBooks or Xero, ready to check and send.
- Auto-posting (Premium): new blog posts and projects go out to Instagram and Facebook with a caption.
Any package can add these, or the site assistant, from our AI automation page.
Extras
| Extra | Price |
|---|---|
| Extra page | $200 |
| Blog setup | $350 |
| AI visibility setup | $350 |
| Online store | from $1,800 |
| Rush delivery | +25% |

After launch
Every site runs on one of our two care plans.
- Care, $249 a month: hosting, security updates, SSL renewals, monthly backups and uptime monitoring. The site stays up and nobody has to think about it.
- Care+, $599 a month: everything in Care with weekly backups instead of monthly, plus up to an hour of edits each month, a monthly report on visits and leads, and upkeep of your automations.
How payment works
Half to book the slot, and work starts when it lands. A quarter when you approve the design. The last quarter before launch, when the site goes live and every login is handed over to you.
Where we work
We are based in Markham and build sites for businesses across the Greater Toronto Area. Most of the work happens remotely; we meet in person when it helps, such as the copy interview for Premium. Two of the sites we have built are on our work page.
Questions
- How much does a small business website cost?
- Our packages are $899, $1,299 and $3,999, depending on how many pages you need, whether we design your brand, and how much we do to get you found on Google. Prices are in Canadian dollars, plus 13% HST.
- How long does it take to build a website?
- Starter takes 2 weeks, Growth 4 and Premium 6, counted from the day the deposit lands. Rush delivery is available at a surcharge of +25%.
- What happens after the site launches?
- Every package includes a period of support after launch. After that, Care keeps the site hosted, updated, backed up and monitored for $249 a month, and Care+ adds weekly backups, an hour of edits each month, a monthly report and upkeep of any automations for $599.
