Website pricing can feel like a guessing game. One quote says “starting at” a number; another leaves out what happens after launch. If you run a restaurant, shop, trade business, or clinic in Saskatoon, you deserve to know what you’re paying for before you say yes.
Here’s the straight answer: a standard five-page website from YXE Marketing costs $1,500 one-time. That price includes mobile-friendly design, Google-ready foundations, your Google Business Profile connected, working inquiry forms, and two rounds of revisions.
There’s no mystery package hiding behind the headline. Here’s what those details mean in practice, and what to ask about if your project needs more.
What does “five pages” mean?
Five pages give a small business room to explain what it does and make it easy for customers to get in touch. A typical site might include:
- Home
- About
- Services
- A key service or location page
- Contact
The right lineup depends on your business. A Saskatoon clinic may want to highlight its main treatments. A contractor may use a page to explain a core service and service area. A restaurant might prioritize its menu, hours, and location.
The point isn’t to fill five pages just to reach a number. It’s to give visitors the information they need to decide whether to call, book, or send an inquiry. If you need more pages or a different setup, the scope can be discussed before work begins.
What’s included in the $1,500 price?
Mobile-friendly design
Many customers will first find your business on a phone. Perhaps while they’re between errands on 8th Street or looking for a service after work. A mobile-friendly site is designed to work comfortably on smaller screens, so visitors can read the information and find the next step without pinching, zooming, or hunting through a cluttered menu.
Google-ready foundations
Your site is built with search visibility in mind from the start. That gives Google a clearer foundation for understanding your business and its pages.
It’s important to be clear about what that does, and doesn’t, mean. Google-ready foundations are not a promise of a top ranking, and they aren’t the same as an ongoing SEO campaign. Search visibility takes more than launching a site. If you want continued help showing up in local search, learn about Local SEO for Saskatoon businesses.
Your Google Business Profile connected
Your Google Business Profile is connected as part of the website setup. That helps link your business’s online presence, but it doesn’t mean every profile detail will stay current automatically. If your hours change for a holiday weekend or you add a new service, you’ll still want to make sure the information customers see is up to date.
Working inquiry forms
The website includes forms that give potential customers a way to contact you. That matters whether someone wants to request a quote, ask about an appointment, or check availability.
Before launch, it’s sensible to test the form yourself. Send a message and confirm it reaches the right inbox. A form that looks good but doesn’t deliver inquiries isn’t doing its job.
Two rounds of revisions
You get two rounds to review the website and request changes. This gives you a clear chance to make sure the content and design are moving in the right direction before launch.
To make the most of your review time, gather feedback in one place. Instead of sending one change today and several more later, combine comments from the people involved in the business. That keeps the process clearer and helps everyone focus on what matters most.
What if you need something beyond the standard site?
Not every business fits neatly into the same five-page setup. You might need additional pages, a custom feature, or a more involved customer experience. Those requests can change the project scope, so they shouldn’t be left as a surprise after work has started.
The approach is simple: talk through what you need, get a clear quote, and agree on the work before it begins. The price we say is the price you pay. If you’re unsure whether a feature is standard or custom, ask. It’s better to clarify early than to guess.
What does website care cost after launch?
The $1,500 build is a one-time cost. After launch, the optional care plan is $79 per month. It includes fast, secure managed hosting, updates, backups, and up to 30 minutes of small edits each month.
Those edits are for practical changes that keep your website in step with your business, such as:
- Tweaking text
- Swapping a photo
- Updating seasonal hours
- Adding a holiday special
For example, a restaurant might need to post holiday hours before a busy weekend. A clinic may need to update a detail on a service page. With the care plan, there’s time set aside for small updates like these.
If you kept the care plan for a full 12 months after launch, the plan itself would add $948 over that year. That makes the first-year total for the website and 12 months of care $2,448, before any larger custom work. The monthly plan and one-time build are separate costs, so you can see how they add up.

A few useful questions to ask before you start
A clear quote should make it easy to understand what the project covers. Before approving any website proposal, make sure you know:
- How many pages are included?
- What will happen in each revision round?
- How will your business details and content be gathered?
- What happens if you need custom features or extra pages?
- What support is available after launch, and what does it cost?
These questions aren’t about making the process complicated. They help you make a confident decision and avoid mismatched expectations later.
A clear price makes planning easier
A website is one part of your business, not the whole operation. You’ve got customers to serve, staff to coordinate, and busy and quiet seasons to work around. Knowing the upfront cost and the monthly care option helps you decide what fits your budget without having to decode an agency proposal.
The standard website is $1,500 one-time. The optional care plan is $79 per month after launch. If your project needs more than the standard scope, you’ll get a quote before anything starts.
