Everything your website needs, under one roof.

You get one team for design, build, launch and the maintenance afterwards. No handoffs, no agency telephone game.

Business websites

Five to fifteen page sites for contractors, clinics, law firms and local services — built to get the phone ringing, not just to look good.

Start a project

Shopify stores & themes

Custom Shopify builds and theme work for DTC brands — product pages, upsells and a checkout flow that stops leaking carts.

Start a project

Custom WordPress themes

Hand-coded themes with a clean editor your team can actually use. No page-builder bloat, no 40-plugin stack to babysit.

Start a project

Landing pages that convert

Single-purpose pages for ad campaigns, tested against a real hypothesis. One offer, one action, measurable results.

Start a project

SEO & local search

Technical SEO, schema, Google Business Profile and pages built around what people in your city actually search for.

Speed & Core Web Vitals

We fix the slow site you already have: images, fonts, scripts and render-blocking mess. Most builds ship at 95+ on Lighthouse.

Website redesigns

Outdated site, or one built by someone who vanished? We rebuild it — and migrate your content and rankings without the drop.

Start a project

UI/UX & responsive design

Mobile-first layouts designed in Figma and tested on real devices. Over 70% of your visitors are on a phone — they get designed for first.

Care plans & maintenance

Hosting, backups, updates, uptime monitoring and monthly content edits. Your site stays fast, secure and current after launch.

Drag the handle. This is the difference.

Most local businesses aren't losing customers because of their prices. They're losing them in the four seconds it takes to judge a website. Here's a typical starting point next to what we ship.

Safah Landscaping

A custom WordPress theme replacing a one-page Wix site that ranked nowhere. We built service pages around what Kitchener homeowners search for, added a two-step estimate form, and put real project photography above the fold.

The difference isn't the design. It's the decisions.

Plenty of studios can make something look nice. Here's what actually changes when you work with us.

The typical agency

Common
  • A template with your logo dropped in
  • Twelve weeks, and you chase them for updates
  • Page builder bloat that loads in five seconds
  • SEO sold as a separate retainer, later
  • You need a ticket to change a phone number
  • Launch day, then silence

.comdesign

Our way
  • Designed from your offer, your photos, your market
  • Two to four weeks, with a shared build link from day one
  • Hand-coded and lean — 95+ Lighthouse at launch
  • Technical SEO and schema included, not upsold
  • An editor built for you, plus a walkthrough video
  • 30 days of post-launch tuning on every project
.comdesign / process

Eight steps. No mystery.

You always know what's happening, what's next, and what we need from you. Most projects run two to four weeks end to end.

STEP 01

Discovery call

30 minutes on your customers, your competition and what a lead is worth to you.

STEP 02

Research

We audit your current site, your top three competitors and the keywords worth ranking for.

STEP 03

Wireframes

Structure before decoration. We agree on what each page has to prove before we style anything.

STEP 04

UI design

Full homepage design in Figma, plus a type and colour system for every inner page.

STEP 05

Build

Hand-coded and responsive, on a staging link you can watch fill in day by day.

STEP 06

Testing

Real devices, forms, tracking, accessibility and Lighthouse. Nothing ships on a "should work."

STEP 07

Launch

DNS, redirects, SSL, sitemap and Search Console — so rankings carry over cleanly.

STEP 08

Optimise

30 days of watching real behaviour and tuning the pages that aren't pulling their weight.

Every day your site looks dated, someone chooses a competitor.

Send us your current site. We'll design a new homepage concept for it — free, no obligation, yours to keep even if you never hire us.

.comdesign / clients

What owners say after launch.

We went from maybe two quote requests a week to six or seven. Same ads, same crew — the website is the only thing that changed.
SK
Sam K.Owner, Safah Landscaping
They found three things in our checkout nobody had flagged in two years. Revenue per visitor more than doubled in the first month.
MR
Sanjeev L.Founder, AquaOn
Two salons, one site, and I can edit both myself. My old developer took a week to change a price list. This takes me a minute.
AH
Aisha H.Director, PBX1 & Amor
Clear pricing, clear timeline, and it launched when they said it would. That alone put them ahead of the last two agencies we used.

.comdesign / faq

Questions worth asking first.

A landing page takes 7–10 days. A full business site runs two to four weeks. The variable is almost never us — it's how quickly we get your content, photos and feedback. We'll tell you exactly what we need on day one so nothing stalls.

Most business websites land between $499 and $4,999 CAD depending on page count, e-commerce and integrations. You get a fixed quote in writing before any work starts, and we invoice 50% up front and 50% at launch.

Yes — this is the most common project we take. We map every existing URL, set up 301 redirects, keep your indexed content intact and submit a fresh sitemap at launch. In most redesigns rankings hold steady and then improve as speed and structure get better.

Yes. We move your content, domain and email to a platform you actually own — usually WordPress or Shopify. You keep your domain and your inbox; we handle DNS, SSL and the cutover, typically with no downtime.

That's the point. Every build ships with an editor set up around your actual content — services, staff, prices, gallery — so you're changing text in plain fields, not fighting a page builder. You also get a walkthrough video recorded on your specific site.

Regularly. We're based in Kitchener, Ontario and work with clients across Canada, the US, the UK and the UAE. Everything runs over email, shared build links and scheduled calls in your timezone.

Every project includes 30 days of tuning — we watch real traffic and fix what underperforms. After that you can self-manage or move to a care plan from $79/month covering hosting, backups, updates, monitoring and monthly edits.
