Cornerstone really cares about the details and the end result in every site they build, and it shows. Their work ethics and technical knowledge are second-to-none, and they are friendly, helpful people to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Cornerstone again."

Website Design & Development

Cornerstone is one of Calgary's top website development companies, having designed and developed hundreds of websites for top companies and organizations across a wide breadth of industries.  We also work with many top creative, marketing and advertising firms, collaborating on projects when needed.

Our approach is to work with you to develop a website which is not only professional and attractive, but also accurately represents your brand and helps achieve your goals.  It's not enough to just have a pretty website these days, it must also do what you need it to, whether that's selling products, creating leads, supporting your sales team, or communicating with investors and other stake holders.  When simple, static websites are not enough, that's when we really excel.  See our Design Portfolio for examples of our work.

How should you choose what firm to work with?

1. Look at their portfolio and see if you like their designs.  We work with lots of different designers, so we don't have a set style.  However, we do believe in certain principles such as building sites which are easy and intuitive to use, so these principles are reflected in our work.
2. Review their track record.  We've been at this for over seven years now and have built literally hundreds of websites.  And our founders have been at this since 1996, which is the early days of the internet, so they've seen everything.
3. See if you like them.  Life's too short to work with people you don't like, so drop by and meet us.  See if you like us and want to spend time with us.
4. Get a quote.  We're happy to provide a proposal and quote for any size project.  We're not the cheapest in town, but we definitely provide excellent value.  Make sure you know what's included and what isn't though, as we find that we usually include many things that many other website designers and developers do not, such as:
   • Ensuring that our sites which are not just search engine friendly but search engine optimized.  We fully understand search engine optimization and can advise on how to build your site to achieve top rankings and also how to ensure that you don't lose your existing rankings (which often happens when you redevelop your website).
   • Building websites for multiple devices such as iPhones, smart phones, and iPads.
   • Ensure that your website is printer friendly.  Just because your site looks good on screen, does not mean it will print.  In fact, printing properly is usually the exception rather than the rule.
