One guy. One focus.
Your trades business.

I'm Ryley. I've spent over a decade building websites and digital marketing strategies for small businesses — and now I work exclusively with trades contractors across Canada.

No team of salespeople. No account managers. You deal with me directly. I build your site, I handle your updates, and I make sure it's working to bring you calls.

I started TradesWebsites.ca because I saw too many contractors getting burned by agencies that overpromise and underdeliver. You deserve a website that actually works — without the runaround.

Why trades?

I've worked with all kinds of small businesses over the years. Restaurants, retail, professional services — you name it. But trades contractors are the ones who kept getting the worst deal from other designers and agencies.

I saw the same story over and over: a contractor pays an agency $3,000–$5,000 for a website, gets locked into a contract, and ends up with something that looks generic, loads slow, and doesn't bring in a single call. Or worse — they sign up with a lead gen service that sends them shared leads and charges per click while the phone rings with tire kickers.

Contractors don't need a marketing department. They need a website that actually works — one that shows up on Google, looks professional, and makes it easy for the right customers to call. That's it.

So I built TradesWebsites.ca around one idea: give contractors a great website, handle everything for them, and charge a fair price with no strings attached. If it's not working, you cancel. Simple as that.

How I work.

No layers. No handoffs. No waiting on tickets.

You talk to me

No project managers. No support queues. When you have a question or need a change, you message me directly and I take care of it.

Built to perform

Every site I build is designed to do one thing: get you found on Google and turn visitors into calls. Clean code, fast loading, mobile-first, and SEO baked in from day one.

No lock-in

$97/month, month-to-month. I don't do contracts because I don't believe in trapping people. If the site isn't working for you, cancel. I'd rather earn your business every month.

What you won't get.

I built this business to be the opposite of the companies that burned you before.

No long-term contracts

You'll never be locked in for 12, 24, or 36 months. Month-to-month means I have to earn your business every single month.

No upsells or add-on fees

$97/month covers everything - even ongoing changes. And I'm not going to call you next month trying to sell you a "premium website package" for another $500.

No shared leads

Your website is yours. Every call, every form submission, every customer — they're coming to you, not being split with three other contractors in your area.

No generic, one-size-fits-all sites

Your site is built for your trade, your service area, and your business. Not a generic page with your logo dropped in and someone else's content.

No waiting on support tickets

Need something changed? You message me. I respond within 24 hours — usually faster. No ticket numbers. No "your request has been escalated."

A few things people ask.

Why are you so much cheaper than agencies?

No office. No sales team. No account managers. It's just me — so the overhead is low and the savings go to you. You're paying for the work, not the agency lifestyle.

Can one person really handle everything?

Yes — because I keep it focused. I build websites for trades contractors. I'm not running ad campaigns, managing social media, or trying to be a full-service agency. Websites are what I do, and I do them well.

Do you only work with contractors in BC?

No. I'm based in Victoria, but I work with trades businesses across Canada. Everything is done remotely — a quick call to get started, then I handle the rest.

What if I need more than just a website?

A strong website with local SEO is the foundation — and for most contractors, it's the highest-impact thing you can invest in. If you need more down the road, I can point you in the right direction. I'm not going to upsell you on services you don't need.

More calls. Better jobs.
Less hassle.
