"Starter Basic" Website
CAD $650
Launch your online presence with a clean, simple, well-organized, mobile-friendly "online brochure" website. We keep your costs down by starting with a beautiful design that's already fully responsive, and then customizing it for you with your unique visual elements, contents, and menu.
To build your “Starter Basic” website for you, we will:
- Offer you a shortlist of beautiful templates to help you pick your desired design.
- Customize your selected design to include your logo and your company colour(s) and font(s).
- Help you decide on the best menu structure for your site.

- Add any photos and/or videos that you supply.
- Create a simple Contact Form for receiving inquiries from your website.

Who this package is best for
The Starter Basic is perfect for owners of new businesses who "just need a simple, professional online presence without a lot of extra bells and whistles". You don't have the time or interest to learn how to use a DIY website creation tool yourself, but you don't have the budget or need to pay for a full-featured, custom-built website.
Advantages
- Fully responsive (mobile-friendly)
- Clean, professional design
- Low maintenance: built on a platform that doesn't need to be updated very often
What you supply
To keep the Starter Basic cost so affordable, we will rely on you to supply us with the following pieces of your new website:
- All of the written content for your website
- All of the visuals (photos) for your website
- Your company logo, colour(s), and font(s)
- Your domain name
- Your hosting package's login information
- A list of the top SEO keywords and keywords phrases that you'd like to be found with
