Serve residents and visitors
Separate essential local-service information from trip-planning details. A visitor may need directions and reservations; a regular customer may want current hours or a quick way to request the same service again.
Mobile-first websites · Elk Valley · BC
Web design for
Fernie.
Fernie combines a working mountain community with year-round visitors and an active downtown. Those audiences do not always arrive with the same questions. We plan websites that make everyday services easy for residents to find while helping visitors understand availability, location and the next step before they arrive.
Built around the way you work
A useful website starts
with the right questions.
Make seasonal changes manageable
For recreation, hospitality or other seasonal businesses, decide how the site will handle changing activities, operating dates and availability. The structure should support updates without rebuilding the whole homepage.
Keep the booking path clear
Where an existing reservation or rental tool is appropriate, make the handoff obvious. Explain what happens on the external system and keep contact alternatives visible when a visitor needs more help.
Before we design
Your Fernie brief.
A focused starting point for a consultation—not a fixed package or a promise of results.
How do your winter and summer enquiries differ?
Are you serving visitors, year-round residents, or both?
Where is availability managed, and who updates it?
One connected project
More than a new homepage.
Keep useful existing content, preserve important URLs and make the next step clear.
Content and structure
We review existing pages, service information and search entry points before deciding what to keep, combine or create. Important links should not disappear in a redesign.
Our approach ↗Mobile-first design
We start with the small-screen experience: prioritized content, readable text, touch-friendly navigation and practical enquiry forms. Your own brand and business needs guide a design that also adapts carefully to tablet and desktop.
Why mobile-first matters ↗Connected services
When appropriate, we can also discuss campaign landing pages, brand assets or enquiry follow-up. These are scoped around a real need rather than added automatically.
Explore all services ↗Fernie questions.
Can one Fernie website support both seasonal and year-round services?
Yes. We can separate year-round information from seasonal offerings, with a clear plan for updating dates and availability. The exact content and integrations depend on how your business already operates.
How do we start a Fernie website project?
Start with a consultation about your audience, services, existing website and goals. We agree on the content, design, technical requirements and responsibilities before setting a project scope and schedule.
Can advertising, branding or automation be included?
Yes. Those can be discussed alongside the website or as separate work. We define the need first, then recommend an appropriate scope instead of assuming every business needs every service.
