Why your site should look like this.
This page isn't a sales pitch. It's a plain-English look at what your current website is doing well, what it's doing poorly, and what Launchpad would change if you gave us the green light.
- The current site is offline
151pvd.com refuses connections (ECONNREFUSED). The domain is HTTP-only with no SSL, and the server is not accepting traffic at all. A new patient Googling Pine Valley Dental right now lands on a broken page, or on Google Maps and YellowPages directory listings only. The redesigned site is HTTPS by default, fast, and indexed.
- Brand name is a numerical address (151pvd.com)
The legacy domain literally encodes the street number. It is hard to remember, hard to share verbally, and impossible to spell over the phone. We recommend the patient-facing site live at a memorable domain like pinevalleydental.ca instead.
- No social channels linked to the practice
No Instagram or Facebook listed anywhere we can find. New patients use Maps and social to vet a dentist before they call. Wiring even a basic Facebook page into the site is a quick local-search win.
- No staff photos, no team information online
Without a working site, there is nothing to introduce the dentist or the hygiene team. Patients who pick a practice based on whom they will be seeing currently have nothing to go on. The redesigned site has dedicated space for that the day you launch.
- No service descriptions accessible to patients
Because the site is offline, a patient cannot tell what Pine Valley Dental does until they call. The redesigned site lays out general, restorative, cosmetic, family, and emergency services in plain language with a 5-card jump nav at the top.
- Logo is the only real asset on disk
The only working brand asset is the existing logo PNG. There are no patient-facing photos of the office, the team, or the equipment. The redesigned site uses representative photography that will be swapped for real photos of the practice during launch week.
- Visitors see a "Not Secure" warning
Chrome and Safari flag your website with a scary warning because it doesn't have a little lock icon. Most people hit back before they read a single thing.
- The site doesn't work on phones
Text is tiny. Buttons don't fit. Images overflow. About 7 in 10 people looking for a local business in London are on a phone, and most of them leave immediately.
- The design looks out of date
Customers decide whether to trust a business in under 5 seconds, and they use the website to do it. A dated look makes an excellent business look like it's not paying attention.
- Sticky desktop header with persistent Book Now
As patients scroll on desktop, the header and Book Now CTA stay visible. On mobile the floating contact widget keeps the phone number one tap away.
- Five-card jump nav on Services
General, restorative, cosmetic, family, emergency. Patients land on the specific service they need without scrolling past the others.
- First-paint logo splash, scoped to one session
The brand mark animates in on the first visit, then never again in the same browser tab. A premium feel without the cost.
- Built on Astro and Cloudflare Pages
The redesigned site loads in under a second from anywhere in Canada and costs nothing per month to host. No more recurring CMS fees.
- Photography placeholders ready to swap
Every section that currently shows representative imagery has a clear place for the real photo. We replace each one during launch week with photos of the actual practice.
- A site that actually looks like a real business
Modern design that matches how your business actually feels, not a clicked-together template that looks like everyone else's.
- Works perfectly on phones
Most people looking for you are on a phone. This site is built for phones first, then tablets, then laptops, in that order.
- Everything you already have, better organized
Your hours, your services, your photos, your prices, your booking link, your menu, all of it, in one clean place that people can actually find.
- Fast, secure, and runs itself
Hosted on Cloudflare, the same network that powers Shopify and Discord. Always online, always secure, always fast. No plugins to update.
- You own it. Pay once. Forever.
$250 one time. No monthly fees for hosting. No subscription. No lock-in. The site is yours to keep, forever.

The monthly fees you'd be paying elsewhere.
Most website builders charge you every single month. The day you stop paying, your website is gone. Here's what that actually looks like over a year:
