Design that works
What Good Website Design Does for Your Business
Good design isn’t decoration. It’s what makes visitors trust you, understand what you offer and contact you.
Clear structure
Visitors find the service, price question or contact details they came for in a couple of clicks.
Mobile-first layouts
Designed for phones first, because Google uses the mobile version of your site for ranking.
Obvious next steps
Calls to action, click-to-call and short forms placed where people are ready to act.
Your brand, done properly
Colours, typography and photos that look like your business, not a template.
Readable and accessible
Good contrast, sensible font sizes and alt text so everyone can use the site.
Designed to load fast
Lightweight layouts and optimized images that help meet Google's Core Web Vitals.
Mobile-first
Designed for the Phone in Your Customer's Hand
Google uses the mobile version of a site’s content, crawled with a smartphone agent, for indexing and ranking. So we design the phone layout first and make sure nothing important is lost on small screens.
We also design for speed: Google’s Core Web Vitals ask for the main content to load within 2.5 seconds, the page to respond to taps within 200 milliseconds and the layout to stay stable.
- Thumb-friendly buttons and click-to-call
- Short forms that are easy on a phone
- Readable text without zooming
- Images sized for mobile data
- Menus that don't hide key pages
- Checked on phones and tablets

The AlphaIT difference
Websites Built by an IT Company
Many web designers stop at the design. We also run hosting, security, email and IT support, so the website keeps working after launch.
Fast and secure by default
Hosting, SSL, updates and security handled by the same team that builds the site.
Email that reaches the inbox
Business email and SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up properly, so contact-form and quote emails don't land in spam.
Built for search
Clean structure, page speed and on-page SEO from day one, so the site is ready to rank.
One team after launch
Website, hosting, email and IT support under one roof, with no finger-pointing between vendors.
Choosing an approach
Custom Design or Template?
Both can work. The right choice depends on your budget, how unique you need to look and how much the site needs to do.
| Adapted template | Custom design | |
|---|---|---|
| Look | Polished, but similar to other sites | Designed specifically for your brand |
| Budget | Lower | Higher |
| Flexibility | Limited to the template’s layouts | Layouts built around your content and goals |
| Best for | New or very small businesses | Established businesses that need to stand out and convert |

Frequently asked questions
Website Design FAQs
Straight answers about design, cost and what happens after launch.
How much does website design cost in Edmonton?
It depends on the number of pages, whether you want a custom design or an adapted template, and the features you need. You get a written quote after a free consultation.
What's the difference between web design and web development?
Design is how the site looks and how visitors move through it. Development is building it and making it work. We do both, and our website development page covers online stores and custom apps.
Will I be able to update the website myself?
Yes. We build most business websites on WordPress and show your team how to edit pages, posts and images.
Do you design mobile-friendly websites?
Every design starts with the mobile layout. Google uses the mobile version of your site for indexing and ranking.
Do you write the content?
We can work with your existing content or help with copywriting. Let us know in the consultation and we’ll include it in the proposal.
Can you design a website for my industry?
Yes. We’ve designed sites for immigration consultants, an optical clinic, a print and sign company, a learning centre and an online store.
Is SEO included?
Every site is built with SEO basics: clean structure, headings, page titles and fast loading. Ongoing SEO is available separately.
Can you redesign my current website instead?
Yes. See our website redesign service, which plans redirects so you keep your existing Google rankings.
I already have a website. Can you redesign it?
Yes. Our website redesign service rebuilds an outdated or slow site and maps redirects so you keep the Google rankings it has earned.
Do you use AI in web design?
Where it saves time, yes: AI tools are useful for first drafts of page text, image ideas and layout options. A person still plans the pages, writes for your customers and checks everything before launch. Sites made entirely by AI website builders tend to look alike and often skip local search basics, like your service area and business details.
Do you design websites for businesses outside Edmonton?
Yes. We work with businesses in Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Leduc and Nisku, Fort Saskatchewan, Beaumont and Acheson. Most of the design work happens online, so we also build websites for businesses anywhere in Canada and around the world.
