My mission

Frequently asked questions

Can you help me update my existing website that another company built?

Potentially. It’s best to have a chat with me so I can determine what you’re currently working with and what your requirements are for this update.

Will you do our social media?

I can give you advice on what social channels make sense for your business. I can help get these channels created and give you advice on the type of content to post, frequency of posts, etc.

Who hosts the website?

If I build your website, I will generally manage the hosting for you so you don’t need to do anything. I use the same hosting company (Flywheel) for my own website and for my clients.

Flywheel website hosting offers:

Lightning-fast, reliable site performance
Maximum security against hackers and malware
Real support from real experts, 24/7

If required, I can host your website on a different website host. Contact me to discuss.

What will you need from me?

It really depends on what type of website you want and whether or not you have an existing website. We’ll be able to discuss this on our discovery call before we start working together. Things I might need include:

Photos of you and your team
Photos of your business or products
Content for the website (text, PDFs etc.)
Staff Profiles

How much does a website cost?

A new website will cost anywhere from $1,500 to $10,000. The cost is determined after we meet to discuss your needs and project goals. After our initial meeting I will provide you with a no obligation quote.

Do you have an office?

I work out of my home studio located between Canning and Port Williams. I meet with clients in my home, their place of work, a coffee shop, or virtually.

How long does it take to create a website?

A typical website will take around 4 – 6 weeks from start to finish.

Can I update the website myself once it’s been built?

Yes. Your website will be powered by a content management system that will make it easy for you to add, edit or delete content. You simply login to the admin area of your website and make changes using the drag and drop editor. I offer training to my clients on how to edit & update their website, and I’m just an email or phone call away when you have questions or need advice.

Still have questions? Get in touch.

Testimonials

Kind words from great clients.

It has been a true pleasure working with David. We would give him 100 stars if it were possible. We were (are) a start-up business and weren’t sure how to articulate our wishes for a website. David patiently and ever so professionally sat with us through several meetings and was able to transform all of our barely-formed ideas into the most beautiful, functional website. It is much better than we could have dreamed, and we get compliments on it regularly. It is fresh, bright, and easy to navigate. His writing is phenomenal. He has continued to make changes and updates as our needs change, and we are so grateful to have been able to work with him. We would recommend David to anyone.

Sarah & Lauren

Kingston Farmers Market

David is excellent, he put together an awesome website and advertising campaign for us that is giving us just the right amount of exposure.

Joel Reimer

Reimer Construction

My old web site was really out of date and in need of a total rebuild. I asked David Watson to renovate it and I could not have been more pleased with his work and what he has done with my website. David was efficient, responsive and always respected my requests no questions asked. He really took the time to understand the goals and objectives of my project, and delivered a top notch product in a timely manner. He brought my business to life with a clean, professional website and he is very affordable. I couldn’t be happier with his service and would recommend him to anyone looking for one of the best web design agencies in the Annapolis Valley.
