A new site, a redesign or a focused update

Web design and redesign services in Hamilton

We build new business websites, redesign existing sites and improve individual pages. A rebuild can resolve platform limitations; a smaller update may be enough when the rest of your website still works.

New website

Custom WordPress website design

We design and build custom WordPress websites around your services, content and enquiry needs. The work connects page planning, agreed writing, responsive layouts and forms. Reusable elements keep the site consistent when you add content.

Scope to agree
  • Pages and navigation
  • Content for agreed pages
  • Custom responsive layouts
  • Forms and agreed functionality
In practice

Your quote defines the pages, writing, design, development and launch work. You provide the business facts, source material and final approvals agreed for the project.

Website redesign in Hamilton

We redesign existing websites by reviewing what to keep, improve or move before rebuilding. Useful pages and available search data inform the new structure. If URLs change, we plan their destinations and redirects; a platform change needs a practical reason, such as required features or an older setup that is difficult to maintain.

Scope to agree
  • Content and URL inventory
  • Retention and redirect decisions
  • Mobile and navigation improvements
  • Migration and launch checks
In practice

For BriCargo’s move from Africa United Logistics, Webbies rebuilt the website, mapped old URLs to new destinations, implemented redirects and carried out launch checks. The new structure organized freight services and destinations around the broader business.

Connected functionality

Ecommerce websites, booking and integrations

An online store needs clear products and a working checkout. Booking, membership and CRM connections need the right information to reach the right system. We establish the required workflow, platform, accounts and paid services before setting the scope.

Scope to agree
  • Product and catalogue structure
  • Payments, shipping or booking
  • Forms and CRM connections
  • Integration testing
In practice

A basic enquiry form sends a message. A booking or CRM integration may also need to reserve a slot, take payment or create a customer record. The scope identifies which steps are required, which services connect and who maintains them.

Improve an existing site

Website updates and landing pages

A weak service explanation, difficult mobile layout or unclear quote route may be addressed without rebuilding the website. We review the affected pages and recommend a focused change that fits the useful structure already in place.

Scope to agree
  • Service-page improvements
  • Campaign landing pages
  • Mobile layout fixes
  • Clearer enquiry paths
In practice

The Stairlift Store's service content, buying guidance and contact routes were improved as part of a wider website redesign and SEO project.

For wider budgeting context, read our small-business website cost guide for Ontario.

WordPress editing, accounts and support

WordPress editing, account access and support

Your team’s editing options, account access and recurring costs are agreed before development. We identify what you can update in WordPress, what needs development support and who manages each account or subscription.

01

Routine WordPress updates

Depending on the build, your team may update articles, team details, photographs or service information. We identify those editing options in the proposal. Changing a custom layout or adding an integration can require development support.

02

Access and recurring costs

We document administrative access, the client’s content and files, control of the domain and hosting, renewals and any paid themes, plugins or licences. Hosting is paid to the provider. Analytics, booking, payment and CRM accounts also need clear ownership and access.

03

30 days of post-launch support

Our web-design offer includes 30 days of support after launch, with coverage set out in the proposal. Ongoing maintenance, additional pages, new functionality and continuing SEO are agreed separately. The handoff identifies who handles future changes.

From the current website to launch

Our website design and redesign process

We review the current website, agree the pages and content, design and build, then check the launch. For a redesign, that includes deciding which useful content and URLs to retain and how changed pages should redirect.

Plan your website
  1. 01

    Review the starting point

    We look at the business, important pages, existing content, navigation, enquiries and available search-performance data. The aim is to identify what helps customers and what needs attention.

  2. 02

    Agree the pages and content

    We plan page roles, navigation, writing and approval points. Existing material can be retained or improved. Webbies can write the agreed pages using your business knowledge; you confirm facts, images and final content.

  3. 03

    Design and build the agreed scope

    Responsive layouts, reusable elements, forms and agreed integrations are developed around the content. Search foundations include meaningful headings, useful page addresses, internal links and crawlable information.

    Loading speed also depends on the images, scripts, plugins and hosting behind the design. Any performance work needs a defined scope. After launch, backups, security checks and monitoring are available through separately quoted maintenance for suitable websites.

  4. 04

    Check the launch and transition

    We check relevant browsers, devices, links, forms and key interactions. Where URLs change, the migration plan identifies suitable destinations and redirects. The proposal defines indexing checks, included analytics or Search Console setup, and checks after launch.

Redesign expectationCareful planning reduces avoidable disruption. Search visibility can still change; unchanged rankings cannot be guaranteed.

Website work shaped by real business needs

Website projects: what we changed and why

Our work includes BriCargo’s rebrand and website migration, The Stairlift Store’s website redesign and SEO work, and service and clinic content for MedCare. Each example explains the business need and the work Webbies performed.

International freight and logistics

BriCargo Group

The need
BriCargo had outgrown its Africa United Logistics identity. The rebrand and new domain needed to represent wider international freight services.
The response
Webbies rebuilt the website around freight services and destinations, mapped old URLs to new destinations, implemented redirects and completed launch checks. Service information was connected with quote requests.
In the work
The archived Africa United Logistics homepage presents air, ocean, and land-and-rail services for Canada-to-Africa shipping. The BriCargo air-freight page shown alongside it explains booking, pickup, customs and delivery. These examples show the earlier homepage and a service page from the rebuilt site; they are different page views, not a measured performance comparison.

Website redesign and SEO

The Stairlift Store

The need
Buyers needed help comparing staircase types, rentals, pre-owned equipment, pricing and installation before requesting a quote.
The response
Webbies redesigned The Stairlift Store website for a clearer structure and carried out SEO work. We developed service pages and buying guidance, connected related information and improved mobile contact and quote options.
In the work
The homepage keeps quote, phone and FAQ routes visible. These changes formed part of the website redesign and SEO work.

Service and clinic content

MedCare Clinics

The need
Different clinic locations have different services, providers and hours. One general page cannot answer every patient’s visit question.
The response
Webbies organized clinic, service and regional content with clearer connections, giving new locations and services a consistent place within the site.
In the work
The pictured service page uses a body map to help visitors explore detailed information. It is one example within the wider service-and-clinic content structure.

Before you get started

Website design and redesign questions

Before starting a website project, confirm the schedule, what SEO work is included and how we will work together.

How long will my website project take?

Smaller websites with fewer pages and a few services usually take 1–2 weeks once content and account access are ready. More extensive but straightforward business websites and redesigns typically take 2–4 weeks. Larger or more complex projects need a project-specific schedule. We confirm the timeline against the pages, functionality and approval stages; delayed feedback or changes to the scope can move the launch date.

Does the website include ongoing SEO?

Ongoing SEO is quoted separately from the website project. The website scope can include search foundations such as headings, internal links and crawlable content. Continued keyword research, content expansion, local visibility work and performance reviews require a separate scope. Explore Hamilton SEO services.

Do you work with businesses outside Hamilton?

Yes. Webbies is Hamilton-based and works with businesses across Southern Ontario and Canada. Remote meetings are preferred, with in-person meetings where appropriate. See the regions we serve.
