Lethbridge web design & development

Websites that feel clear to your visitors, and safe to edit for your team.

I help small businesses and non-profits in Western Canada plan, design, and care for custom websites that bring steady inquiries and bookings, not just a nice first impression.

Schedule a 30 minute call

We look at your current site or idea. I ask a few simple questions about visitors, goals, and timing. Then we decide if it makes sense to work together.

20+ websites for tourism, non-profits, and ag organizations in Western Canada.

Website care

Peace of mind after launch, with simple care plans.

Your site is not a one time project. It is an ongoing part of how people find you, trust you, and reach out. Together we keep it fast, clear, and healthy so your team can focus on their real work. Care plans are usually for sites I have built or rebuilt on Craft CMS or Statamic, or for stable sites where we both agree I can safely own the technical side.

Essentials care plan

For smaller sites that need a calm, reliable partner to keep things tidy and watched.

  • Regular platform, plugin, and offsite backup management, with restores verified on staging or local when needed.
  • Periodic broken link and 404 checks.
  • Easy to use, privacy friendly website analytics with Plausible.
  • Email support for questions about your site and care plan, with clear answers, not jargon.

Typical clients: local service businesses, small non-profits, and tourism operators with simple brochure style sites.

Growth care plan

For sites that drive bookings and inquiries, where each small improvement matters.

  • Everything in Essentials care.
  • Quarterly checks on key journeys, technical SEO, and performance.
  • Your analytics dashboard reviewed together each quarter, with clear next steps.
  • A small, planned set of content and layout improvements each cycle, agreed together based on what we see in real use.

Typical clients: hotels, tour operators, membership organizations, and bilingual sites with frequent updates.

Project plus care

For new builds or redesigns that include a clear path for the first year after launch.

  • Care plan baked into the project scope.
  • Editor training in Craft CMS or Statamic.
  • Post launch fixes and refinements based on real use.
  • A simple roadmap for future improvements.

Ideal if you want one person to guide strategy, design, development, and ongoing care through the first year, then help you choose the right long term plan.

Website services

From clear content, to solid builds, to ongoing health.

Strategy, website design, development, and technical SEO all in one place. You do not need to juggle three vendors or learn a new tool. We plan together, then I handle the details.

Structure and UX

Wireframes, the quiet blueprint behind a calm website

Why quick, low fidelity wireframes help you notice missing content, confusing paths, and unrealistic expectations before you spend time on design and development.

Helpful if pages keep growing without a clear structure, or decisions stall in meetings.

About Webmarks

A calm, bilingual partner for your website in Western Canada.

I am Dany, a website strategist, designer, and developer based in Lethbridge, Alberta. Since 2010, I have helped small organizations across Western Canada with websites that are practical, steady, and easy to care for.

I work directly with tourism operators, non-profits, and ag businesses, often as an extension of their internal team or marketing partners. Projects are collaborative, with clear steps and no jargon.

Fluent in English and French, I also work with bilingual organizations that need content to feel natural in both languages, without doubling the effort for editors.

How a typical project feels

  1. We start with a short call to understand visitors, goals, and constraints.
  2. I draft a simple plan and estimate, in plain language, scoped to your budget.
  3. We shape content and structure together, often with quick wireframes.
  4. I design, build, and test the site on Craft CMS or Statamic.
  5. We launch with a clear care plan, so you know what happens next.

You always know what step we are in, what I am working on, and what I need from you. New builds and ongoing care are on Craft CMS and Statamic, audits can be on most platforms.
