What you actually get

An email like this one, written for your business.

Not a report full of charts. Three things I'd change, in the order I'd change them, and one thing you're already getting right. Yours to keep whether or not we ever talk again.

  • Written by me, not a tool
  • Plain English, no jargon
  • Nothing to buy

Your website review — yourbusiness.ca

  1. Fix this first

    Your phone number isn't tappable on mobile

    Most of your visitors are on a phone. Right now they have to copy the number and switch apps to call you. That's where you lose them.

  2. Quick win

    Google shows your old opening hours

    Your site says one thing and your Google listing says another. People trust the listing, then show up to a locked door.

  3. You're fine here

    Your photos are good — keep them

    Real photos of your work and your shop. That's more than most of your competitors have. Don't let anyone talk you into stock images.

Happy to explain any of this — just reply. No pressure either way. — Lyle

How it works

Three steps. You can stop after any of them.

  1. You send the form

    Your email and your website. That's it — about twenty seconds.

  2. I email your review

    Within one business day, written by me. Plenty of people stop here, and that's completely fine.

  3. Only if you want more

    I send a fixed written price with a go-live date. Say yes and you're usually live in about a week. Say no and you'll never hear from me again.

Questions

The stuff people ask me

Anything else, just send the form and ask in the website box — I read every one.

Will I get a sales call?

No. I quote by email and you can take as long as you like to read it. I don't cold-call, and I won't pass your details to anyone else. If you'd rather talk it through, you can ask me to call — it only happens if you want it.

What's the catch with a free review?

There isn't one. Some people read it and hire me to fix things; most don't, and that's fine. It's how I meet local business owners without spending a fortune on ads pretending to be a big agency.

How much does a website cost?

Every job is a little different, so I price each one properly instead of guessing. You get a fixed written price by email before any work starts, and that number doesn't move later. If it's more than you want to spend, just say no thanks.

I don't have a website yet. Can I still send the form?

Yes. Leave the website box empty, or type your business name. I'll look at how you show up on Google and Facebook instead, and tell you what a simple site would do for you.

How long does a site take?

Most go live in about a week once you've sent me your photos and details. I'll give you a date in writing with the quote.

Do I need to be good with technology?

Not at all. I handle the domain, the hosting, and the setup. Afterwards you email me any changes and I make them — you never have to learn a dashboard.

Who you're dealing with

Hi, I'm Lyle. I live here too.

I build websites for shops, trades, and small offices around Halifax. I'm one person, not an agency — so when you email me, I'm the one who answers, and I'm the one who does the work.

  • You own your site and your domain — no lock-in
  • You get me directly, not a sales team
  • I'll tell you honestly if you don't need a new site
