Common Questions.

Everything you need to know before getting started.

How much does a website cost in Winnipeg?

Dark Haus Studio charges a flat rate of $450 for the single page package (The One Page Powerhouse) no hidden fees, no surprises. This includes custom design, mobile first development, local SEO foundation, lead capture forms, and high speed hosting. Custom multi page projects are billed at $50/hr based on scope. An optional Maintenance Package is available starting at $25/month for ongoing support.

What is included in the $450 web design package?

Everything needed to get your business online and converting: custom coded mobile first responsive design, conversion optimized single page layout, integrated contact and lead capture forms, Google Maps and local SEO foundation, enterprise grade speed and security, and high speed hosting, all for a single flat payment.

Why hire a web designer instead of using Squarespace, Wix, or Shopify?

DIY platforms charge recurring monthly fees, typically $16–$45+ per month and you still have to build and maintain the site yourself. Dark Haus Studio delivers a faster, more unique custom coded site for a single flat payment of $450, with no DIY work required. Monthly platform fees add up to $200–$540/year, making a one time custom site more cost effective within the first year for most small businesses.

How long does it take to build my website?

Most single page sites are completed within 1–2 weeks of project start, depending on how quickly content and feedback are provided. You work directly with me from the first conversation to launch day — no handoffs, no waiting on account managers.

Do you work with businesses outside of Winnipeg?

Yes. Dark Haus Studio is based in Winnipeg, MB and works remotely with small businesses across Canada. The entire process — from initial consultation to launch — is completed online, making location no barrier.

What are Maintenance Packages and do I need one?

Maintenance Packages are optional monthly subscriptions that keep your site hosted, secure, and up to date. Basic ($25/mo) includes managed infrastructure monitoring and 15 mins of monthly update time. Growth ($50/mo) includes monitoring plus a full hour of monthly update time. Neither plan is required, but both remove every technical headache from your plate.

What is ADA & ACA accessibility optimization and why does it matter?

The ADA and ACA are laws requiring websites to be usable by people with disabilities. Every Dark Haus Studio site is built to WCAG 2.1 AA standards by default. This protects your business from complaints, reaches a wider audience (1 in 4 Canadians), and improves SEO. It's the right thing to do — and it's included in the flat rate.
