Rentsite

Businesses across Canada

Rent your website.
Pay nothing up front.

Most agencies want two to five thousand dollars before your site earns a cent. We do not. Pick a plan, we build the site, and you pay for it monthly while it works for you.

  • $0 to start
  • $89 a month, lowest plan
  • 10 days to live
  • 17 add-ons, all priced

The problem with buying a website

A website is the only tool you are asked to buy in full before you know it works.

You pay first, you wait months

The published band for a small business build in western Canada is $1,500 to $5,000, paid before launch. Then the site sits there and nobody updates it.

The price is never on the page

Agencies hide behind a discovery call. You cannot compare two quotes because neither of them is written down anywhere public.

Every change costs an hour

Change a phone number, get an invoice. So the hours get rationed, the site goes stale, and it stops bringing in work.

Three plans. Every price on this page.

Pick a size. Nothing down.

Everything a plan includes is written out in full on the pricing page. No brackets, no bands, no "starting from".

How it works

Four steps, ten business days

  1. 01

    Tell us about the business

    A 20 minute call, or a form. What you sell, who buys it, and the towns you work in.

  2. 02

    We build it

    You see the real site on a private link, not a mockup. You say what to change.

  3. 03

    It goes live

    On your own domain, with search engines told it exists. Ten business days from the call.

  4. 04

    We keep it running

    Hosting, updates, backups, and your edits. You email us. We do it.

What the market charges

Published prices, ours beside theirs

Every figure in this table comes from a company's own public pricing page. We did not estimate anyone.

The honest part

You do not own it. That is why it is cheap.

We keep the website files and the design. You keep your domain, your words, your photos, your logo, and your customer list, on day one and every day after. Cancel any time after month 12 and we send you your content. Then the site comes down.

If owning the files matters more than the monthly price, buy a website instead. That is a fair choice, and we will say so on the call.
