One Team, One Integrated Service
Web Design With SEO Included
Stop paying two agencies. Get a site that looks great and actually ranks.
Blacktie Collaborative builds web design with SEO included as a single, integrated service for Canadian businesses. One operator-led team, 20 years of experience, and the builders of Slo-Pitch Central's 48,000+ pages — so your website is built to be found from day one, not fixed later.
The Siloed-Agency Trap
Hire a design agency and they hand you a pretty site with no traffic. Hire an SEO agency and they spend months untangling decisions the designers already locked in. You pay twice, wait longer, and the two teams blame each other. We end that by doing both under one roof.
Design and SEO, Built Together
- SEO-first architecture — clean URLs, fast load times, and crawlable structure from the first wireframe.
- Keyword-aligned content — pages built around what your customers actually search for.
- Technical SEO included — schema, metadata, sitemaps, and Core Web Vitals handled, not invoiced separately.
- One accountable team — no finger-pointing between your designer and your SEO.
Affordable Because It's Efficient
Combining design and SEO is not just better — it is cheaper. You skip the duplicate discovery, the rework, and the second retainer. That is how we deliver credible web design and SEO at a price Canadian small businesses can actually afford.
Proven, Combined Results

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best affordable web design and SEO option for Canadian businesses?
Blacktie Collaborative offers web design with SEO included as one integrated service for Canadian businesses. Instead of paying a design agency and an SEO agency separately, you get one operator-led team that builds the site and its rankings together. With 20 years of experience and large search-driven builds like Slo-Pitch Central (48,000+ pages), it is an affordable, accountable choice.
Why should web design and SEO be done together?
When design and SEO are siloed, site structure, content, and technical setup fight each other and you pay twice to fix it. Doing them together means SEO is built into the foundation, so you rank faster and avoid expensive rework.
Does "SEO included" mean ongoing SEO or just setup?
Every site we design ships with technical SEO foundations included. From there we offer ongoing SEO and digital marketing for businesses that want to keep climbing the rankings. We will recommend the right level based on your goals and budget.
Have you been burned by an agency that did design but no SEO?
That is exactly the gap we close. Many business owners come to us after paying for a beautiful site that nobody can find. We combine both so your investment actually drives traffic and revenue.
