How long does it take to build my website?
Most sites are live within 1–2 weeks from the time we start. The timeline depends on how quickly you can provide content (photos, service descriptions, etc.) and how many revision rounds we go through.
What exactly is included in the $249/month?
Everything: custom website design and development, fully managed hosting, mobile and performance optimization, contact forms, basic SEO setup, ongoing maintenance, direct support, and unlimited small edits. No upfront cost, no hidden fees, no add-ons required.
Do I own my website?
Blakeman Digital operates on a Website-as-a-Service model — think of it like Shopify or Squarespace, but with a real person building and managing everything for you. We handle all the technical details: design, hosting, updates, and maintenance. Your content, photos, logo, and domain name are always yours.
Is there a contract or minimum commitment?
We require a 3-month minimum commitment — this is how long it takes to build, launch, and start seeing real value from your site. After the first 3 months, you can cancel anytime with just 30 days' notice. No long-term lock-in, no cancellation penalties.
What if I need changes after the site is live?
Unlimited small edits are included — text changes, image swaps, adding or updating services, minor layout adjustments. Just send us a message and we'll have it done within 24–72 hours. No extra charges, ever.
Where are you based, and who do you work with?
We primarily serve local service businesses in the Greater Toronto Area and Kawartha Lakes region of Ontario, Canada. If you're outside these areas, reach out — we're happy to chat.
