Website Design in Chatham-Kent

A professional small business website costs $300 and goes live in two to four weeks. Fixed scope, one revision round, every price on this page, and the finished site is yours.

Build your project plan See the three packages

Most small businesses in Chatham-Kent do not need a bigger website. They need one that loads on a phone in under two seconds, says what the business does in the first line, and makes the next step obvious. That is a fortnight of focused work, not a six-month project, and it should not cost four figures to find out what it costs.

So the prices are published, the scope of each package is written down including what is not in it, and the quote you get back is the price you pay. If a project genuinely does not fit one of the three packages below, you will be told that before any money moves rather than in week three.

01 / Packages

Three packages. Each one states what it excludes.

Every launch site moves onto Managed Hosting & Care once it is live. Nothing else is bundled in by default — extras are added when they earn their place, not at the point of sale.

Ask about Business Pro
First 10 clients only

Why it is half price, and what that means for you.

The first ten builds are priced below cost on purpose. A new business cannot show finished work it has not done yet, and portfolio and local reputation cannot be bought any other way. You get a professional build at a rate that will not exist in six months; in exchange the work goes into a portfolio, and a review is asked for on the day it launches.

When the tenth slot goes, the prices return to $300 and $500. A promotion that never ends is just a price, and everybody can tell. 10 of 10 still available.

02 / How it runs

Four steps, with the timings attached.

What sets the calendar is content. The build is days; waiting for photographs is weeks. That is why step one asks for a specific list rather than telling you to send content.

Questions about a website build

How much does a small business website cost in Chatham-Kent?
A one-page launch site is $300 and a five-page site is $500, both one-time, with Managed Hosting & Care at $50 a month after launch. Business Pro, which adds a managed CMS and analytics, is $1,000. Those are the real prices, published, not a starting-from figure that moves once you enquire.
How long does it take to build?
Two to four weeks for a one-page or five-page launch, once your content is in hand. The build itself is a matter of days — what sets the calendar is how quickly text and photographs arrive, which is why you get a specific list of what is needed rather than a request to 'send content'.
What is not included?
Copywriting, photography and logo design are not included in the launch packages, and neither is ecommerce or a CMS unless you add one. Each package lists its own exclusions on this page. Naming them up front is deliberate: a scope you can read before paying is worth more than a discount.
Do I own the website when it is finished?
Yes. Your domain is registered in your name from day one, the content is yours, the enquiry data is yours, and a copy of the built site is provided on request if you ever move elsewhere. The production system that builds sites like yours stays with us — that is why a professional build costs $300 rather than $3,000.
What happens if I want changes after launch?
Each package includes one consolidated revision round during the build. After launch, Managed Hosting & Care includes a small amount of minor assistance each month, and anything beyond that is quoted or billed at $75 an hour. If you expect to change content often, the CMS add-on is the cheaper answer.
Do you work with businesses outside Chatham-Kent?
Yes — Chatham, Wallaceburg, Tilbury, Blenheim, Ridgetown, Dresden and the wider Ontario southwest, including Windsor, Sarnia and London. The work is done remotely and in writing, which is what keeps the price where it is. Being local matters most for the search side, where knowing how people in your town actually search is a genuine advantage.
