Website Design and SEO in Calgary, One Team

A lot of small businesses end up with a web designer who builds something nice, then an SEO company that says half of it needs redoing. You pay twice, and nobody owns the result. We do both, so the site is built to be found from the first page we design.

One team. One plan.

Wardorx designs websites and does SEO for service businesses in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere and Rocky View County.

Why having one team for both matters

No redo after launch

When the people building your site also do your SEO, things like page structure, headings, URLs and schema are right from the start. There's no "phase two cleanup."

One person to call

If your phone number changes or you add a new service, you tell one team and it gets updated on the site, your Google profile and your listings.

Nobody can blame the other guy

If something isn't working, it's on us. That keeps everyone honest.

How it works: build first, grow after

Step 1: The website, free for the first 10 clients, then $1,250

The first 10 clients get a free 14-page fullstack Next.js site and supply their own domain; Founding Launch is $1,250 after that. Every page gets:

  • one clear topic and a heading that says what you do and where
  • a proper title and meta description
  • schema markup so Google understands your business
  • fast loading on a fullstack Next.js build
  • sitemap and Search Console set up at launch

Details on web design services and pricing.

Already have a site that works? Migrate moves it to our stack for $599. Same URLs, 301s and Search Console handled.

Step 2: Ongoing SEO, from $1,000/mo (optional)

Once the foundation is in, monthly SEO adds service and area pages, keeps your Google Business Profile active, builds citations and reports what's changing. Details on SEO services and local SEO.

You don't have to sign up for both. Plenty of owners start with the build, see how it goes, and decide on SEO later.

What the handoff looks like in practice

Here's a typical first few months, in plain terms.

Weeks 1 to 2: build

We agree on your fourteen pages, design and build them, and launch. Search Console is verified and your sitemap is submitted on launch day, so Google starts reading the new site right away.

First month after launch: settle in

We check for crawl errors, confirm that old URLs redirect where they should, and clean up your Google Business Profile so it matches the new site: same name, phone, services and areas.

After that: grow, if you want to

If you go ahead with SEO, we add pages for the services and towns that matter most to you, keep the profile active and send a short monthly note on what we did. If you don't, you still have a fast, well-built site you own, and you can come back any time.

What's not included

We focus on websites, SEO, Google Business Profile and the automation that helps you answer leads, like missed-call text-back. We don't run paid ads or social media accounts. If you need those, we'll be upfront about it.

Who it suits

  • New businesses that need a site and want it found
  • Owners whose current site is old, slow or invisible in search
  • Anyone tired of juggling a designer and a separate SEO company

Current clients include Spectrum Veterinary Imaging and The SOS Group. See more on results.

Questions to ask before you hire anyone for both

  • Will the website be built with SEO in mind from the start, or "optimized" afterwards?
  • Who owns the website and the code if I leave?
  • Is the website price fixed, and is SEO optional?
  • What will you actually do each month for SEO, in plain words?

If the answers are vague, keep looking. Ours are on this page and on pricing.

What we won't promise

No guaranteed rankings or lead numbers. We build properly, work steadily and show you what we did.

Straight answers.

The questions owners actually ask us, answered the way we answer them on the phone.

  • No. The website build (free for the first 10 clients, then Founding Launch at $1,250) stands on its own. SEO plans from $1,000 a month are optional.

  • The basics are: titles, headings, schema, speed, sitemap and Search Console. Ongoing SEO is the monthly work that builds on that.

  • No. We focus on websites, SEO and Google Business Profile.

  • Yes. We'll audit it first and tell you honestly whether to keep it, migrate it ($599) or rebuild it.
