Extra pages or bigger changes beyond the plan: $60/h, always quoted before we start. Your domain is registered in your name from day one. Want to own the site outright later? There's a fair buyout — $700 minus $50 for every month you've been subscribed (minimum $200) — and it hands you the website plus the domain.

Websites are what we do first — but not all we do. These are separate add-on services, priced per project and not bundled into a build. Contact us and tell us what you need.

The care plan

$40/month.
Everything handled.

A website isn't a one-time purchase — it's the employee that never calls in sick. We keep yours working, fast, and findable:

  • Hosting + SSL
  • Domain renewal
  • Edits within 48 hours
  • SEO upkeep
  • Lead alerts to your phone
  • Google Business Profile
  • Monthly 1-page report

How it works

Four steps. About a week.

1

We talk

15 minutes, free. You tell us about the business; we give you a price and a date — same day.

2

You send, we build

One simple form collects your photos, services and reviews. Then we get to work.

3

We review

You get a live preview link. We walk through it together; we fix what you don't like.

4

Live & cared for

Site goes live on your domain. From then on the $40/month plan keeps it fast, current and found.

Why hand-coded

Boring technology. Reliable results.

Typical WordPress site

  • 20+ plugins that need constant updates
  • Skipped updates are how sites get hacked
  • 3–8 seconds to load on a phone
  • Breaks when a plugin author quits

A GWR build

  • Hand-coded static pages — nothing to update
  • Nothing to hack, nothing to break
  • Loads in under a second (we'll show the score)
  • Runs on the same network as half the internet

Who we are

A Kingston web & development team

Global Web Rise — GWR — is a small web and development team based in Kingston, Ontario. For nearly three years we've built websites, web apps and marketing for local businesses across the region.

Between us we've shipped 30+ websites and web apps and run ad campaigns and automations — so you're not anyone's first project. Our lead developer handles the code, complex builds, apps and automation; our designer handles the look, branding and social. You get the full toolkit from one small team.

We started GWR after watching too many Kingston businesses pay $2,000–$3,000 for a single-page site that wasn't built well. We knew we could build better — for less — and back it every month after launch. Our goal is simple: help local business go digital and give Kingston better websites.

Straight answers

FAQ

Who owns the website?
Your domain is registered in your name from day one — non-negotiable. The site itself runs on our system while you're on the care plan. Want to own it outright? Buy it out anytime: $700 minus $50 for every month you've been subscribed, never below $200 — and the buyout hands you the website plus the domain. Most clients just stay on the plan; it's cheaper than owning the headache.
Why is there a monthly fee at all?
Because a website that nobody maintains quietly dies: certificates expire, Google loses interest, forms break silently. The $40 covers hosting, your domain, small edits within 48 hours, SEO upkeep, and the dashboard. If we build on a platform that already hosts your site (Shopify, Squarespace, Wix), the care plan drops to $20/month.
How fast is "live in days"?
Once we have your content (photos, services, reviews — one form, takes you an evening), a template site goes live in about a week and a custom build in one to two. The slow part is usually waiting for photos — we'll nudge you.
Do you only work in Kingston?
Kingston and everything within about 50 km is home base — Napanee, Gananoque, Amherstview, Bath, Odessa, Sydenham and around. We can work with businesses further out too; local is just where we focus and where our SEO know-how pays off most.
Do you do logos, ads, or apps too?
Yes — logo & branding, Google & Meta ads, Google Business Profile setup, email campaigns, lead generation, automations and web apps. These aren't bundled into a website build; they're separate add-on services, priced per project. Websites first — ask us about the rest.
