How long does it take to build a website?
Most small business websites take 2–6 weeks from initial assessment to launch. Larger custom web design projects and online stores can take 6–10 weeks depending on features and content. You’ll receive a clear timeline upfront, and because our web designers and developers work in-house in Edmonton, there are no outsourcing delays.
Do you provide web design services outside of Edmonton?
Yes. While we’re based in Edmonton, we provide web design and development services throughout the surrounding area including Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Leduc, Beaumont, and Fort Saskatchewan as well as to clients in every province and territory across Canada. Remote projects run just as smoothly as local ones.
Why should I hire a local Edmonton web designer instead of an overseas agency?
A local web designer understands your market, your customers, and your competition and answers the phone in your time zone. With CanWebster, you support a Canadian business, keep your dollars in the local economy, and get direct access to the people actually building your website, not a middleman.
Will my website work on mobile phones?
Absolutely. Every website we build uses responsive web design, meaning it automatically adapts to phones, tablets, and desktops. With most local searches in Canada now happening on mobile devices, mobile-friendly design isn’t optional it’s built into every CanWebster project by default, along with fast loading speeds.
Do I own my website once it’s built?
Yes, completely. Unlike some web design companies that lock clients into proprietary platforms or rental agreements, you own your custom website, your domain, and your content outright. If you ever choose to move on, everything goes with you. We earn your business with our work, not with lock-in contracts.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes. Website redesign is one of our most requested services in Edmonton and across Canada. If your current site is slow, outdated, hard to update, or not generating leads, we’ll assess what’s working, keep what is, and rebuild what isn’t often while preserving your existing Google rankings.
What is the difference between web design and web development?
Web design covers how your website looks and feels i-e layout, colours, branding, and user experience. Web development is the coding and functionality that makes it work i-e forms, eCommerce, speed, and security. CanWebster handles both under one roof, so your Edmonton business gets a website that’s beautiful and built properly.
Do you build eCommerce websites and online stores?
Yes. We design and develop eCommerce websites for businesses across Edmonton and Canada with secure payment processing, shipping and tax setup for Canadian sellers like Canada Post, inventory management, and training so you can run your store confidently. Whether you sell ten products or ten thousand, we build stores that scale.
What do I need to provide before my website project starts?
Just your time for a short business assessment, we’ll guide everything else. Helpful items include your logo, photos, and any existing content, but if you’re starting from scratch, we offer logo design, branding, copywriting, and 4K photography too. Many clients hand us nothing but a business name.
Will I be able to update my website myself?
Yes, if you want to. We build on user-friendly platforms and provide training so you can edit text, images, and posts without touching code. Prefer to stay hands-off? Our website maintenance and support plans handle updates, backups, security, and changes for you, affordable and cancel-anytime.
Can you help my business show up on Google Maps?
Yes. Appearing in Google’s local map results is essential for Edmonton-area businesses, and it starts with a properly built website and an optimized Google Business Profile. Our local SEO services strengthen both, helping customers in Edmonton, Sherwood Park, St. Albert, and beyond find you when they search “near me.”
Do you offer website hosting and domain registration?
Yes. We can register your domain, set up fast and secure Canadian hosting, and configure professional email or work with the hosting you already have. Everything is set up in your name, so you stay in control, with our team handling the technical details from setup to launch.
