Hosting and care · Scarborough
Someone still
looking after it.
189 business websites in Scarborough still show a copyright line five years old or more. Almost none of those owners decided to let the site rot — the person who built it moved on and there was nobody left to ask for a change.
These are counts, not projections. 2,685 Scarborough listings, 1,699 working websites opened and read. (Scarborough is part of Toronto; we count the businesses that give Scarborough as their address.)
What the monthly fee is actually for
Hosting, the domain, the certificate, edits whenever you need them, your Google listing and ongoing search work. Not a maintenance plan on top of a separate SEO retainer on top of hosting — that arrangement is how three companies end up not quite talking to each other about one website.
Measurement first
771 of the 1,699 sites we opened in Scarborough have no analytics at all, which means their owners cannot tell whether anything they do works. That goes in before the work, not after.
What counts as an edit
Text, prices, photographs, a new service, a seasonal notice, a page for a new location. If it takes under an hour it is included, and most things do.
Trade by trade
Renovation contractors lead
the list in Scarborough.
Broken out by trade, because the Scarborough average hides a lot. The gap between renovation contractors at 25 and cabinet makers at 18 is most of the story.

Before you decide anything
Find out whether
you have a problem.
Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
