Website Redesign Services in Calgary

A redesign should get you more calls, not cost you the Google traffic you already have. The most common way small-business redesigns go wrong isn't the look. It's the launch. Pages get renamed, old links break, and the site that used to bring in work goes quiet for months.

New look. Same traffic.

Wardorx redesigns sites for local businesses in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere and Rocky View County, and we treat protecting your search traffic as part of the job, not an add-on.

First question: do you need a redesign at all?

Sometimes the honest answer is no.

You might just need a migration

If people like your site and it brings in work, but it's slow, keeps breaking or costs too much to host, the problem is the platform, not the design. Our Migrate service moves your existing site to a fast Next.js build for $599. Same URLs, same look, with 301 redirects where needed and Search Console handled.

You might just need fixes

Thin service pages, a confusing menu or a buried phone number can often be fixed without starting over. Our article on rebuild vs optimize helps you tell the difference.

You probably need a redesign if...

  • the site doesn't work properly on a phone
  • you've added services, areas or a new name and the site doesn't reflect them
  • you can't update it without paying someone
  • it looks so dated it's costing you trust

How we redesign without losing your rankings

1. Inventory every URL

Before we touch anything, we list every page on your current site and check which ones get traffic or links in Search Console.

2. Keep what works

Pages that bring in visitors keep their URL wherever possible. If a URL has to change, it gets a one-to-one 301 redirect to its new home, not a blanket redirect to the homepage.

3. Rebuild the content properly

Every service gets its own clear page. Every area you serve gets real local content, not a copy with the town name swapped. Headings say what you do and where.

4. Launch carefully

We submit the new sitemap, check the redirects work, confirm Search Console and watch for crawl errors in the weeks after launch.

What it costs

Founding Launch

The first 10 clients get a free 14-page fullstack Next.js redesign and supply their own domain. After that, Founding Launch is $1,250. That's room for a homepage, your main services, a couple of area pages, about and contact. If your current site has more pages than that, we'll talk on the call about what to merge and what to redirect.

Migrate: $599

Your current design moved to our faster stack, same URLs, if the look isn't the problem.

The website redesign cost page explains what pushes the price up or down. All prices are on pricing.

What you get at the end

  • A fast, mobile-friendly site on a fullstack Next.js build
  • Code in a Git repository you can access, so the site is yours
  • Titles, meta descriptions, schema and a sitemap on every page
  • Search Console set up and verified
  • A redirect map of every old URL and where it went

Who we've worked with

Current clients include Spectrum Veterinary Imaging and The SOS Group. Chinook Auto Sales is a past project. See more on our results page.

Signs a redesign went wrong, and how we avoid them

If you've been through a bad redesign before, you'll recognize these:

  • calls drop off a few weeks after launch
  • old pages people bookmarked now show "page not found"
  • Search Console fills up with errors nobody's checking
  • the new site looks great on a laptop but is awkward on a phone

Every one of these is preventable with a URL inventory, one-to-one redirects, a mobile-first build and someone actually watching Search Console after launch. That's our standard process.

What we won't promise

We won't promise better rankings after a redesign. Nobody can. What we can promise is a careful process that protects what you've already earned, and a cleaner foundation to grow from.

Start with an audit

Run your current site through our free audit to see where it stands on speed and structure. Then book a call or phone +1 (250) 344-1619.

Straight answers.

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

  • It can if URLs change without redirects or content gets cut. We keep existing URLs where possible, 301 the rest one-to-one, and handle Search Console so Google sees a clean switch.

  • The first 10 clients get a free 14-page redesign and supply their own domain. After that, Founding Launch is $1,250. Moving your existing design to a faster stack with Migrate is $599. Details are on the [redesign cost page](/cost/website-redesign-calgary).

  • A Launch build is 14 days once we've agreed on the page list and have your content.

  • Yes. That's what [Migrate](/migrate) is for.

  • Yes. The code lives in a Git repository you have access to.
