Lethbridge & southern Alberta
Your work is better than your website.
The 7-Day Lead-Ready Website for Lethbridge trades and small businesses. I write the words, set up your Google profile, and hand you every file. Live in 7 days, or your first 3 months of care are free.
The whole idea
A website has exactly one job.
Somebody found you. They have thirty seconds and a thumb. Every single thing on that page should be pushing them toward one action — calling you, or filling in the form.
Everything else is decoration. Most small business websites fail because they were built to look busy instead of built to close.
What you're actually buying
Not a website. The phone call that comes after it.
Nobody wakes up wanting a website. You want more of the right customers finding you, believing you, and getting in touch before they scroll to the next result.
The offer
The 7-Day Lead-Ready Website.
Everything a local business needs to turn a Google search into a quote request, for one posted price, live within a week. Starting from scratch or rescuing a site from 2011, it's the same deal.
- 01
A hand-written, offer-first website Included
Hand-written HTML and CSS. No WordPress, no page builder, no theme quietly fighting you. Your best service is the headline, your reviews sit next to it, and calling you is one tap on a phone.
- 02
Copy that sounds like you Included
A 30-minute interview, then I write it. Plain sentences, your actual voice, no "leveraging synergies." Most small business sites fail on the words long before anyone notices the design.
- 03
Quote forms that arrive Included
Forms that land in your inbox and on your phone, asking for the details you need to price the job before you call back. Your own form, not a rented service that caps how many you can receive.
- 04
Google profile & local SEO groundwork Included
Your Google Business Profile set up or tidied, plus proper titles, structured data and a sitemap. This is the groundwork that has to exist before you can compete locally — not a promise about where you'll land.
- 05
Hosting & clean handover Included
On your domain, in your name. You get the files, the logins, and a plain-English page on changing your own text. Stuck on a platform billing you $90 a month? I move you off it, and you keep the domain.
- 06
An offer session for your business Bonus
Thirty minutes on what you sell, what you charge and what you guarantee. The best idea goes on your homepage, because a better offer beats a nicer font.
- 07
A review kit Bonus
Your Google review link, a QR card to print, and a short text to send after each job. Simple enough that you'll actually use it.
- 08
A month of Care + IT, free Bonus
Edits to your site, plus help with the stuff that eats your evenings: email, phones, the printer, the quoting software. After the first month it's optional, and the site stays yours either way.
How it's built
Fewer moving parts. Less to go wrong.
There's no framework, no build step, and no thirty-plugin stack standing between a visitor and your phone number. Less machinery means less to update, less to expire, and less that can break while you're up on a roof.
Hand-writtenHTML and CSS I wrote for your business, not a theme bought off a marketplace.
No pluginsNothing to update, nothing to expire, no dashboard to log into.
No platform feeNot now, not ever. A care plan is there if you want me on call, and you can cancel it any time.
YoursFull source handed over at launch. Fire me and the site still works.
Selected work
Real sites, for real businesses.
Every one is client work. Three are for two Lethbridge operators, and the second came to me on a referral from the first. The newest, for a massage therapist in Edmonton, launches soon.
Every one is real, hand-written HTML, not a mockup. Hover a preview and it scrolls the whole page, not just the top.
The turnaround time. The attention to detail. It took a load off my mind.
How it goes
Three steps. Seven days.
You will not be in a four-month discovery phase. You will not be shown a mood board.
01
A 30-minute interview
What you do, who calls you, what a good customer is actually worth to you. I write everything from that. Send me a few photos of your work and the clock starts.
02
The real site, on a real link
Not a picture of a website — the website, on your phone. Change any of it you like before a single customer sees it.
03
Live in 7 days. Yours.
It goes live on your domain. You get the source files, every login, and a short page in plain English on changing your own text. Then it's yours.
The guarantee
The 7-Day Launch Promise
You're live within 7 days of our interview and getting me your photos, or your first three months of Care + IT are free.
The Proud-to-Show-It Guarantee
You see the real site before you pay the second half. I revise until you're proud to show it to customers. If you still aren't, you don't pay the second half.
Why I can promise this: I build every site by hand, myself, and you see it working before it costs you the full price.
Who you're hiring
You get me. That's the whole firm.
I'm Oliver. I build websites in Lethbridge, on my own. There's no account manager, and no junior your project quietly gets handed down to. You email me, I answer. Something breaks, I'm the one who fixes it.
I'd rather build a small number of sites properly than a lot of them quickly. Every project gets my full attention until it's right.
Who this is for
People who do the work themselves.
- Trades, contractors, and owner-operators
- Shops, clinics, studios, and local service businesses
- Anyone paying a monthly fee for a site they can't edit
- Anyone whose best advertising is still word of mouth
Bigger outfits with a marketing team and a brand guide? I'll build to your standards without blinking. But the work I'm proudest of is for people who still answer their own phone.
What it costs
A number, before you commit.
Posted prices, not "call for a quote". Half to start, half when you're happy and it's live. No hourly rate that quietly grows.

Straight answers
Before you ask.
Do I actually own it?
Yes. Every file, the domain and the logins are in your name from launch day. If you never speak to me again, the site keeps working.
What does it cost every month?
Nothing is required from me. You pay your domain (about $20 a year) and hosting. The care plans are optional and you can cancel them any time.
What if I don't like it?
You see the real site before you pay the second half. I revise until you're proud to show it. If you still aren't, you don't pay the second half.
Can you get me to the top of Google?
Nobody honest can promise that. I build the groundwork that has to be there before you can compete locally: a proper site, a Google profile, and a way to collect reviews. Where you land after that depends on your reviews, your competitors and time.
Can you fix my email and printer too?
Yes. That's what Care + IT is for. Up to an hour a month of help with the tech that eats your evenings.
I'm not in Lethbridge. Can you still help?
Yes. I work across southern Alberta: Coaldale, Taber, Raymond, Fort Macleod, Picture Butte and beyond. Most of it happens over the phone, with a visit if it's helpful.
Not ready yet?
A free 5-minute teardown.
Send me your website or Facebook page. I'll record a 5-minute video of it on a phone, plus your Google listing, with three things I'd fix. No pitch in it. Do the fixes yourself if you like.
