Web design for Halifax businesses

Planned on calls, built in WordPress, priced up front

Halifax mixes a working harbour, several universities, a naval base and a busy visitor season. A useful site for a business here has to speak to locals, students and travellers without confusing any of them.

Overview

Halifax web design for harbour trades, campuses and visitors

Web design in Halifax: what you get

01Web design in Halifax: what you get

Every Halifax site we build is custom WordPress, laid out on a phone screen first because so many local visitors, from cruise passengers to students, find you that way. You get a page for each service, a contact path that suits your business, clean code that loads quickly, and a sitemap that helps Google understand the structure from day one.

Once it is live, the domain and everything written for it belong to your company. Staff can update hours, menus or project photos in a simple editor. Two Trees has delivered more than 2,700 websites since 2011, and that experience shows in the small things: tidy forms, clear navigation and no half-finished pages left behind.

On your site
  • Custom WordPress site
  • Quick to load on mobile
  • Content owned by you

Local SEO and Google Maps in Halifax

02Local SEO and Google Maps in Halifax

The regional municipality is spread out, and Google treats a search in Clayton Park differently from one in Dartmouth or Sackville. We set up or tidy your Google Business Profile, choose categories carefully and keep the service area honest. The site then echoes the same details, so both sources agree on what you do and where you do it.

A business with customers on both sides of the harbour can have separate location pages with real content, such as directions, parking or the jobs done there. A free SEO audit comes before every new build, so we know which pages Google already values and which problems are worth fixing first.

On your site
  • Profile matched to your site
  • Halifax, Dartmouth or Bedford
  • Audit before the rebuild

How much a website costs in Halifax

03How much a website costs in Halifax

Halifax businesses pay the same published prices as clients in our home city. The smallest package, Startup, is $399 for one or two pages. Silver gives four or five pages for $1,249, and Silver eCommerce puts a cart on top for $1,490. Silver+ runs to eight or ten pages at $1,849. Corporate, at $3,490, covers up to 25 pages and an online shop.

A harbour-front tour company usually needs fewer pages than a marine supplier with a long list of services, and the package follows from that. French pages, booking systems or other extras are quoted in writing before work starts. New sites include one month of free support, and care plans from $69 a month cover the seasonal edits after that.

On your site
  • Startup at $399
  • Silver $1,249, eCommerce $1,490
  • Silver+ $1,849, Corporate $3,490

How long it takes and how we work

04How long it takes and how we work

Halifax projects run by phone and video, and we book calls during the part of the Atlantic time day that overlaps with ours. A first conversation covers your customers and goals. You then receive a written outline of pages, features, timing and the fixed price, so every person involved knows the plan before design starts.

Drafts come as private links that open on any phone or laptop, and comments gather in one thread. Notes you leave in the evening are usually waiting with an answer the next day. For tourism businesses, we aim to launch well before the cruise ships and summer visitors arrive, rather than in the middle of the busy months.

On your site
  • Phone or video calls
  • Price fixed in writing
  • Shared draft links

Websites for Halifax industries

05Websites for Halifax industries

Halifax has a working port, a naval base and a group of ocean technology firms, many of them in Dartmouth. Companies supplying ships, the navy or marine research sell to engineers and buyers who look for capabilities, certifications and past project types, so their sites need clear service pages and documents ready to download.

Visitors are the other big audience. The waterfront and the Citadel draw summer and cruise crowds who choose restaurants and tours on their phones. Dalhousie and Saint Mary's keep the South End and Quinpool Road busy with students who expect honest prices and fast booking. Each of those businesses gets a site shaped around its own customer.

On your site
  • Marine and ocean technology
  • Tourism and hospitality
  • Student-facing services

How it works

How a Halifax web design project runs

  1. Step 1

    Talk it through

    A video or phone call booked at a time that suits Halifax — 2 hours ahead of Calgary, so we plan around it.

  2. Step 2

    Scope and price in writing

    You get the page list, features, timeline and a fixed price before anything starts.

  3. Step 3

    Design and build

    Drafts are shared through private links, so your team can review from anywhere and comment on each page.

  4. Step 4

    Launch and care

    We take the site live, connect analytics and Search Console, and stay on hand for updates and growth.

FAQ

Web design in Halifax: common questions

Questions Halifax business owners ask us before a project. Tap one to see our answer.

Have a different question?Write to us and the answer comes from the people who would build your site.

Can a Calgary studio really build a website for a Halifax business?

Two Trees Studio

Yes. The work happens on screens either way. Calls happen on the phone or over video, drafts are shared through private links and keep every decision in writing. You get the same steps, the same review rounds and the same published prices as a client in Calgary. What you skip is the travel and the long meetings, since most feedback can be left directly on the drafts.

How do you handle the time difference with Halifax?

Two Trees Studio

Halifax sits three hours ahead of Calgary throughout the year, because both provinces change clocks on the same dates. We usually schedule calls between late morning and late afternoon Atlantic Time. Email and comments on drafts work around the clock, so a note you send at the end of your day is often answered before you start the next one.

Will the site work for a seasonal Halifax tourism business?

Two Trees Studio

Yes. Tours, restaurants, accommodations and shops that depend on summer and cruise traffic need sites that load fast on phones, show current hours and prices, and make booking simple. We can set up pages that are easy to change from high season to off season, and a care plan can take on the updates when your schedule or menu changes.

What does a Halifax website cost?

Two Trees Studio

Expect $399 for a Startup site and $1,249 for Silver. If you need a cart, Silver eCommerce is $1,490; a larger brochure site on Silver+ is $1,849; and the Corporate package is $3,490. The packages differ mainly in page count and whether a store is included. Custom features are priced on request, in writing, before work starts.

Do you build bilingual or French websites for Nova Scotia?

Two Trees Studio

Our own writing and building are done in English. If you need French pages, for example for Acadian communities or government work, the site can be set up to support a second language, and we add French content that you or a translator provide. We will tell you honestly at the start what that adds to the scope and price.
