WordPress Design & Web Development


WordPress started out as a blogging system but it isn’t just for blogs anymore, it is a complete content management system. Right now more than 28% of the web uses WordPress. Wow, that’s a lot of websites! WordPress is open-source, it is both free and priceless at the same time. There are thousands of WordPress plugins available that can turn your website into almost anything you can imagine. This means that WordPress will meet all of your website needs.

On-page SEO Services

SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimization. We’ll help you clearly communicate your message to your audience and at the same time use on-page SEO techniques to improve how your site ranks in search results. It’s about making sure that people can find your site for the search terms they type into Google and delivering a good user experience when they get there.

WordPress is a brilliant platform for SEO and we have a great track record for helping clients get results.

On-site SEO works. We don’t spend money on advertising for Dandelion Web Design. Our businesses grows from referrals and from ranking well in organic search results.

Web Design & Development Rates

We charge $100/hour for website updates and consulting. Please note that a premium charge may apply for urgent work requested outside of normal business hours.

Each project is custom-built so we will create a quote for you based on your specific website needs.

If your budget is less than $1,000 please check out our WordPress workshops.

If you’re ready… let’s get started.

WordPress Maintenance

WordPress maintenance plans are available and strongly recommended. WordPress needs to be regularly backed up and updated. Ignoring technical updates can make your site vulnerable to malware and hacking attempts. You can take one of my workshops and learn how to maintain your WordPress site yourself. Or, if you’d rather not have to worry about it, we will happily handle this for you.

What Clients are saying about working with us

I just wanted to thank you for our new site. It was exactly what we had talked about! I really appreciate how professional and quick to respond you were. We are seeing results already!
— Colin Fraser, President, Amberwood Doors Inc.

It has been a pleasure working with Ruth on creating my website. She has created a website that is practical, lovely to look at and easy to use.

— Jane Burgess

Ruth is a pleasure to work with. During the development of my website, she gave good advice, was able to simplify content to its essence and develop functional, creative design looks. Thank you Ruth!
— Meg Salter

Ruth Maude was the ideal person to support me through making an unwieldy old Drupal website into an easily navigable and handsome new WordPress site.

Ruth was also very easy to work with, both in phone consultations and in email exchanges.  I greatly appreciated Ruth’s quick and incisive responses to questions and her practical advice on working efficiently. Her combination of visual sense, good taste, and technical expertise was incredibly valuable–more than I expected, and just what I needed. I highly recommend Ruth as both an instructor and a consultant.

— Margaret Procter, Webmaster, Harbord Village Residents’ Association

Dandelion Web Design transformed our tired, dated, and ineffective website into a contemporary and user-friendly site. We love the result and have received many compliments. Ruth was thorough, professional and personable from start to finish. If you need a website created for your non-profit organization we recommend that you contact Ruth Maude.

— Jackie Franssen

I work in the fashion industry so I needed a site that would be in-line with the industry’s standard but at the same time would reflect my personality. Ruth created the perfect custom theme for me. I took Ruth’s LearnWP workshop to learn how to manage the site myself and when I need some help she’s easily reachable. This has been a very good experience for me and I highly recommend Ruth!

– Peggi LePage
