The Kawarthas — website design in the Kawarthas and Haliburton

Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Buckhorn, Apsley, Minden, Haliburton, Bancroft, and the roads between them.

Peterborough is the base, so none of it is a long drive.

From May to September a good part of the trade is people who have never been to your town before. They do not know which building is yours, when you close, or whether you are open on a Monday.

A website that answers those three things clearly is worth more up here than anywhere else.

A butcher shop, a burger counter, an auto shop, an ice cream stand, a sign company. Main street businesses, most of them family run.

Hours change twice a year and half the sites in cottage country never get updated. After launch, sending over a new set of hours is one email, and it goes in the same week.
