Vlad Pereira / Pricing

Web design pricing,published.

Three numbers cover the core of what I sell: $1,997 for a custom website build, $197 a month for the care plan, $497 one-time for a tune-up, all in CAD. Two optional growth plans, $497 and $997 a month, sit on top of the care plan for owners who want the site to bring in more. Almost nobody in this market publishes a price, and you should not need a sales call to learn one.

Black Friday: 50% off every service when you sign your agreement by November 30, 2026. Monthly plans stay half price for your first 12 months, then return to the regular price shown.

Builds and tune-ups are paid in two halves: half to start, and the other half when the work is done, together with the first month of your care plan if you choose one. The care plan is month-to-month, cancel anytime. Prices in CAD.

02 — Flat

Why flat pricing.

Most web design pricing starts with a discovery call and ends with a PDF a week later. That week is a sales process, and it costs you time before you learn a single number, so I publish the number up front. The free audit is for fit and scope, never for finding out the price.

One person designs, writes, and codes every site here, which makes the cost of a build predictable to me. I pass that predictability on as a flat price instead of padding a quote for safety.

Flat also means comparable: you can put these numbers beside any quote you receive and judge both with the full picture, because mine were public before we ever spoke.

03 — Market

What the Vancouver Island market charges.

Of the eight Vancouver Island studios I checked in October 2026, one publishes prices: Front Page SEO in Victoria lists project ranges of $1,500 to $3,500. The other seven ask you to request a quote before they will name a number.

The low end of the market works differently: monthly-fee builders charge a small number every month, forever. Even at $60 a month that crosses $1,997 inside three years, and the meter keeps running after that.

My $1,997 sits inside the one published regional band, paid once. What the number buys is a custom-coded site delivered in about 7 days, with the domain and the code in your name when it launches.

04 — Ownership

Pay once, then decide.

The build is a one-time purchase. The domain is registered in your name, the code is yours, and there is no lock-in, so nothing forces a subscription after launch.

The $197 care plan is optional and month-to-month. It is how most builds are meant to continue: hosting, updates, backups, and small changes handled without you thinking about them, and leaving takes one message. I wrote a fuller picture of what upkeep involves in website maintenance on Vancouver Island.

Everything on this page is built from Courtenay, where I also do web design for the Comox Valley and the rest of the island. The seven live sites in my work are built and run the same way I will build yours, which is how I know the process holds up.

05 — Growth

Growth plans, on top of care.

Two optional add-ons to the $197 a month care plan: Growth at $497 a month, Growth+ at $997 a month, for owners who want the site found more often and bringing in more work.

A website does half its job if nobody finds it. When someone on the Island needs a cleaner, a plumber, or a clinic, they search Google, Maps, and increasingly AI assistants, and the businesses that keep showing up get the call. Showing up takes steady work: fresh local content, a managed Google Business Profile, reviews that keep arriving. Most owners have no time for any of that, which is the whole point of these plans. You run the business; this runs the visibility.

The tune-up is $497 one-time: a repair project done once. Growth is $497 a month: ongoing marketing work, delivered every month. With the care plan underneath, the all-in total is $694 a month for Growth, $1,194 for Growth+.

The monthly report keeps the plan accountable: rankings, traffic, calls, and direction requests, in plain numbers you can read in two minutes. And the math is yours to run. If one new recurring customer is worth a few hundred dollars a month to you, a handful of wins a year covers the plan. Both plans are month-to-month, cancel anytime, and you own everything: domain, site, accounts.

06 — FAQ

Pricing questions, answered.

How much does a website cost in BC?

$1,997 CAD flat is what I charge for a complete custom build, and it is one of the few published numbers in this region’s small-business market. Of the eight regional studios I checked in October 2026, only one publishes a range, $1,500 to $3,500. Most ask you to request a quote first. My price includes design, code, copy polish, and launch.

How much does a decent website cost?

For a small business, a decent custom site costs $1,997 CAD with me, built in about 7 days. Template builders cost less up front and bill monthly forever; agencies usually start higher and take longer. The number that matters is what you pay over three years, not what you pay in month one.

Do you have to pay for a website monthly?

No. My build is $1,997 one-time, the domain is registered in your name, and the code is yours. The $197 a month care plan is optional: hosting, updates, backups, and small changes handled for you, cancel anytime. Nothing in the build requires a subscription afterwards.

How much does it cost to hire someone to build a website?

With me, $1,997 CAD, flat and published. Hiring ranges widely because most designers quote per project; the one regional studio that publishes prices lists $1,500 to $3,500. A flat published price lets you compare before you ever get on a call.

Is it worth paying for a website?

It is when the site wins you customers, which is the standard I design to. I run six live businesses of my own on sites I built, so every build gets the playbook I use daily: fast pages, clear offers, a working Google Business Profile, and analytics so you can see what it brings in.

What is the growth plan?

A monthly add-on to the $197 a month care plan for owners who want the site to bring in more business. Growth is $497 CAD a month: two local blog posts, Google Business Profile management, keyword strategy, review requests, and a monthly visibility report. Growth+ is $997 a month and adds four blog posts, social media posting on Facebook and Instagram, email marketing, and booking funnels.

Why do two services cost $497?

The tune-up and the growth plan share a price and nothing else. The tune-up is $497 one-time: an audit and fix of speed, SEO, and messaging on an existing site, delivered once with a before and after report. Growth is $497 a month: new content, profile management, and reporting delivered every month.
