Web design and SEO for businesses in Bathurst

The Chaleur Bay's harbour city. In a market like Bathurst, the businesses winning online are seldom the largest ones. They are the ones whose website was actually built to be found.

We build the site to rank for the terms that produce paying work in Bathurst, and keep at it after launch — the part most studios quietly skip. Published price from $299 a month, everything in it.

What it takes to get found in Bathurst

Bathurst is the size where local SEO pays back quickest. There is enough search volume for rankings to become real enquiries, and usually few enough well-optimised competitors that a clean, properly structured site can reach the first page in months rather than years.

The work is unglamorous — fast pages, one real page per service instead of a single catch-all, correct local markup, and steady improvement afterwards. That same discipline is what holds the position when a competitor finally decides to take their own site seriously.

One piece of evidence rather than a claim. In August 2026 we ran the search a customer would run — a web designer in Bathurst — and looked at what came back: not one of the top three ordinary results, the listings below the map, was a studio based in the town. Most were firms based somewhere else, running one page per town. Your trade's results will look nothing like ours, but they are just as checkable, and almost nobody checks.

Working with a remote studio

There is no Bathurst office and no salesperson who will drive out to meet you. What there is: prices you can read before making contact, a fixed 10-business-day delivery, and monthly work you can verify, because every fix we claim is confirmed by an independent re-crawl of your site. Plenty of clients have never met us and have a better website than the competitor who sat through three meetings.

• Free 20-minute call — you tell us what your business does and for whom; we tell you honestly whether we fit. No proposal theater.
• Every price is published — $299, $599 or $1,199 a month in USD, no setup fee, cancel any month.
• Live in 10 business days from kick-off, or your first month is free — that promise is in writing.
• Improved every month — new pages and ongoing SEO, with every fix verified by an independent re-crawl.

What a website actually costs in Bathurst

"What does a website cost?" has no fixed answer in Bathurst for the same reason it has none anywhere: the scope moves between quotes and the work after launch is usually unpriced. We settled both by publishing $299 a month in USD, held flat for your first 12 months.

Pay yearly and get two months free. Cancel any time and we refund the unused months pro rata — the annual plan is a discount, not a lock-in.

Frequently asked questions

What happens after my Bathurst site launches?

The monthly work starts, which is the point of the plan: new pages, ongoing SEO, two articles a month on the entry plan, and a report showing the before-and-after HTML for every fix. A site that stops being improved starts sliding, so nothing here stops at launch.

Will the site work properly on phones?

Yes, and it is not an afterthought. Most local searches happen on a phone and Google judges the site by its mobile version. Mobile speed is measured before and after every change and appears in your monthly report.

Is there a contract?

No. Cancel in any month, with no notice period and no exit fee. Your domain is registered in your name from day one and you get a full export of the site and its content within five business days of leaving.

How fast will my website be live?

Within 10 business days of the kick-off call. If we miss that date your first month is free, and that promise is in writing.

What does a website cost for a business in Bathurst?

The same as anywhere, because every price is published: from $299 a month, all included — domain, hosting, copywriting, ongoing SEO. No setup fee, cancel any month.
