What I Build for Edmonton Businesses
Custom websites, e-commerce stores, redesigns, and local SEO services—all with transparent pricing, fast delivery, and lifetime ownership. Find the right solution for your business below.
Most Edmonton Businesses Are Losing Customers to Slow, Outdated Websites
Here's the harsh reality:
- 53% of mobile visitors leave if your site takes longer than 3 seconds to load. Many template-based sites take 5-8+ seconds due to bloated code and plugins.
- 75% of people judge your business credibility based on your website design. An outdated site = lost trust = lost sales.
- Google uses page speed as a ranking factor. Slow sites (over 3 seconds) hurt your search visibility and give fast-loading competitors an advantage in local search results.
- Cheap "bargain" agencies lock you in with monthly fees that add up to $4,000+ over 3 years — and you still don't own your site.
The Solution: Fast, Modern Websites You Actually Own
I build custom websites specifically for Edmonton businesses that load in under 2 seconds, look professional on every device, and convert visitors into paying customers. No templates, no WordPress bloat, no monthly fees.
You pay once, own everything forever, and get a website that actually generates leads — not just sits there looking pretty.

Owner, Expert Painting
Jesse built three websites for me and I'm extremely impressed. The SEO work he does is phenomenal and I'm getting lots of new business from it. What I really appreciate is that he uses secure, modern technologies that don't need constant updates like WordPress and plugins. He's professional, respectful, and really knows his stuff. If you're looking for quality web design, I highly recommend Jesse.

Jesse at Edmonton web design company designed and built us a brand new website after the agency we worked with previously botched it and refused to fix the broken mobile menu and other issues. Everything works perfectly now and looks great and it loads a lot faster. He was super easy to work with.
What Makes Me Different
Not your typical web developer — here's why Edmonton businesses choose to work with me
Fast Delivery Without Compromises
Most agencies take 2-3 months. I deliver professional, custom-built websites in 1-3 weeks. Fast doesn't mean rushed — it means focused efficiency without unnecessary meetings and delays.
You Own Everything Forever
One payment, lifetime ownership. No monthly fees, no licenses, no vendor lock-in. All code, all files, all passwords. Take it anywhere, modify it yourself, or hire anyone to help. Complete freedom.
Local Edmonton Expertise
I understand the Edmonton market, your competition, and what local customers expect. Same time zone, same city, same understanding of local business challenges. No language barriers or offshore delays.
Modern Technology, Zero Bloat
Hand-coded websites using frameworks like Astro and React — not WordPress templates. This means 3-5x faster loading, better security, higher Google rankings, and virtually zero maintenance needed.
Computer Science Graduate, University of Alberta
Formally trained in software engineering, algorithms, and system design — not just self-taught tutorials. This means I build websites that are architected properly, scale efficiently, and leverage modern best practices from day one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before getting started
Q1. How long does it really take to build a website?
Most business websites are delivered in 1-3 weeks from start to launch. Simple sites (5-7 pages) typically take 7-10 days. More complex projects with e-commerce or custom features take 2-3 weeks. I'll give you an exact timeline in your proposal — and I actually stick to it.
Q2. What if I need changes after launch?
You own everything, so you can make changes yourself or hire anyone you want. I'm also available for updates — either pay-as-you-go hourly support or ongoing maintenance plans starting at $99/month. Many clients keep working with me because I built it and know it inside-out.
Q3. Do you really build everything from scratch?
Yes. Every website is hand-coded specifically for your business — no templates, no WordPress themes, no drag-and-drop builders. This is why my sites load in under 2 seconds while template sites struggle at 8+ seconds. You get unique design, clean code, and dramatically better performance.
Q4. Why not use WordPress or Wix?
WordPress and Wix are loaded with bloat, require constant maintenance, have security vulnerabilities, and score poorly on Google's speed tests (which hurts your rankings). I use modern frameworks like Astro that load 3-5x faster, have better security, rank higher on Google, and require virtually zero maintenance.
Q5. Do I really own everything?
Yes. After launch, you receive all source code, design files, passwords, hosting details, and admin access. No licenses, no subscriptions, no lock-in. You can host it anywhere, modify it yourself, or hire anyone to work on it. I don't hold anything hostage.
Q6. What about hosting and domain names?
Hosting is completely free with the platforms I use. You'll only need a domain name ($15/year). I'll recommend the best options and help you set everything up. You own both directly — I never control your hosting or domain.
Q7. Can you guarantee I'll rank #1 on Google?
No one can honestly guarantee rankings — Google's algorithm has 200+ factors. What I do guarantee: proper technical SEO setup, fast loading speeds, mobile optimization, schema markup, and local SEO best practices. This gives you the best possible foundation to rank well.
Q8. What makes you different from cheaper agencies?
Cheap agencies hook you with low prices, then lock you into expensive monthly fees forever. They use templates, offshore labor, and their sites typically perform poorly. I charge fair one-time pricing, you own everything, and I build fast custom sites that actually generate leads. Over 3 years, my approach saves you $3,000+ while delivering dramatically better results.
