We exist to level the playing field for local businesses in the Greater Hamilton Area.
Here's the problem we kept seeing: Local businesses—plumbers, electricians, landscapers, restaurants—would hire expensive agencies to build websites. The agencies would charge $5,000, $10,000, sometimes more. They'd deliver something pretty, launch it, and disappear.
Months later, nothing. No leads. No phone calls. The business owner is out thousands of dollars with a website that looks nice but doesn't actually bring in customers.
Meanwhile, their competitor across town—who happens to know someone in tech—has a simple site that ranks on Google and brings in steady business every single week.
"That's not fair. And that's why we started Hamilton Web Development."
What if every local business—regardless of budget—could have a website that actually works? One that shows up when customers search. One that's optimized for local SEO. One that brings in leads instead of just sitting there.
And what if it didn't cost $10,000 upfront? What if it was affordable—$49/month—so any business could get started?
That's Hamilton Web Development. Affordable. Local-focused. Results-driven.
Started studying entrepreneurship and business at age 14. Not from books—from watching local businesses, learning what worked, and understanding what didn't.
Launched multiple ventures. Built websites for local businesses and quickly learned what actually drives customers through the door: local SEO, fast sites, and clear calls-to-action. Not just pretty designs.
Started helping local businesses after realizing the pricing model was broken. Why should a plumber pay $10K upfront when they just need to be found on Google? Created an affordable monthly model instead.
Refined our local SEO methodology. Helped dozens of Hamilton-area businesses rank on Google and grow their customer base. Proved that affordable doesn't mean ineffective.
We're selective about who we work with—not because we're exclusive, but because we limit how many businesses in each niche we'll take on per area. When we partner with you, we're all-in on your success. No competing clients.
These aren't values we made up for a website. These are principles we live by when running our own businesses—and apply to yours.
We're not just developers. We're operators. We understand what it's like to need customers, manage cash flow, and grow a local business. Every recommendation comes from real experience.
Anyone can make a site look good. We focus on what actually matters: getting you found when customers in Hamilton, Ancaster, or Dundas search for your services. Rankings drive revenue.
We don't measure success by "site went live." We measure by phone calls, contact form submissions, and customers walking through your door. That's what actually matters.
When we take you on as a client, we're committed. We optimize, test, and improve your site continuously. Not just a one-time launch and goodbye.
Most agencies ask "what do you want?" We ask "what problem are you trying to solve?" Need more leads? Want to rank higher? Let's solve the actual problem.
If something won't work, we'll tell you. If you're not ready for a website yet, we'll tell you that too. Honesty builds better businesses and better partnerships.
Because we believe every local business deserves a fighting chance online. Not just the ones who can afford $10,000 upfront.
A plumber in Hamilton shouldn't be priced out of having a website that ranks on Google. A landscaper in Ancaster shouldn't need a massive budget to compete. Our model makes professional web development accessible—while still being selective about who we partner with.
