Quality, value and personal service

There are lots of web design companies that can provide 'cool' web designs and website design services - but for a high price, often charging several thousands of dollars for their website designs. There are also many companies that offer cheap web design - but the quality of the design, usability and efficiency is usually poor at best.

Live Sites is a different kind of website design company:

• we have all the necessary web page design skills and experience but we keep our web design prices competitive.

• In contrast to large companies that offer web design as a side line, Live Sites specializes in web design and hosting.

The fact that we specialize in web design is a plus because this means that your project is not just a nine-to-five job for our website designers. With Live Sites you will experience an exceptional level of personal service and flexibility. As a professional website design company based in Vancouver Island, British Columbia, we don't charge the kind of prices that 'big city' firms do for website design services and search engine optimization services. Word of mouth is largely how we have grown our web designing company, so if we make a saving, it is our business philosophy to pass that on to our clients.

Custom Website Design and Development

Generally, customization consists of visual elements like header graphics, logos, colors, type styles etc, which may be sufficient for a simple brochure type web site. In case of a more advanced web site other web elements may need customization like forms, specific to your business needs and industry. Site navigation and or search capabilities may be required.
