Questions people ask before they sign up
Straight answers on pricing, ownership, timing and what is included. If yours is not here, email [email protected].
Pricing and billing
How much does an OurHub website cost?
Starter is $500 setup and $100 a year. Complete is $1,000 and $240 a year. Identity is $2,000 and $300 a year. Prices are in Canadian dollars before tax. The full comparison is on the what's included page.
How does payment work?
You pay nothing up front. After you send in the quick start form, we book a free intro call. The setup fee is collected after that call, and the first year of hosting is billed when your site goes live.
Is there a contract?
No. Hosting is billed once a year and you can cancel anytime; unused full months are refunded. The setup fee covers building your site; the yearly fee covers hosting, security and support.
Can I pay monthly instead of yearly?
Hosting is billed once a year to keep things simple. If you cancel partway through, unused full months are refunded.
What happens if I cancel?
Your hosting ends, you keep your domain and your content, and I hand over a complete copy of your site files so you can host it anywhere else.
Ownership
Do I own my website and my domain?
Yes. Your domain is registered for your business and belongs to you, along with all of your content, photos and copy. Once the setup fee is paid you own the site design too. OurHub keeps the reusable editor and admin code, which you are licensed to use while you are a client.
What if I already have a domain or an existing website?
I can connect a domain you already own, and if you have an old site I rebuild it fresh and make sure nothing important is lost, including redirects from your old page addresses.
What you get
What is the difference between Basic SEO and Full SEO?
Basic SEO makes your site Google-ready: page titles, descriptions, a sitemap and properly labelled images. Full SEO adds structured data, Google Search Console setup, a Google Business Profile and speed optimization.
What is the Visual Editor, and what are the monthly content updates?
The Visual Editor lets Complete and Identity clients update their own site: click any text to change it, click any photo to swap it. The two monthly content updates are changes I make for you on request. Starter clients use these for all their updates.
Do you write the words on my site, or do I?
Up to you. I can write it from your questionnaire and our call and refine it with you, or you can send exactly what you want for each section. You review everything before launch.
How long does it take?
Starter sites go live in about three business days once I have your answers and photos. Complete takes about five, Identity about ten because of the logo work.
Can you add an online store or bookings?
Yes, as add-ons quoted separately. For bookings I usually connect a tool you already use. For stores, Square Online with Printful is the cheapest path in Canada for merch.
About OurHub
Where is OurHub located?
OurHub is run by Jesse Ross in Vancouver, BC, and works with clients across Canada. Everything is done by email, phone and video call.
Who is OurHub for?
Independent pros and small businesses: coaches, health practitioners, trades, creatives, consultants, side hustles. If you are good at your work and your business is not showing up online, that is the gap.
What happens to the information I share with you?
Your form and questionnaire details are used only to build your website. Your information is never sold or shared, files are stored securely, and I delete your information on request.
Still have a question?
Two-minute form, then a short call with me. No payment until after we talk.
