About Us

Mesmer Design is a proudly Canadian company

At Mesmer Design, we believe that exceptional web development and design services should be accessible to all businesses, no matter their size or stage of growth. My name is Chris, and I have one simple goal in mind: to provide honest and transparent web solutions that help you achieve your business objectives.

As I gained experience in the web development industry, I've seen firsthand how big agencies take advantage of their clients with clunky Wordpress sites and unnecessary maintenance fees. That's why we take a different approach at Mesmer Design. Our focus is solutions catered to specific business needs, powered by our years of domain knowledge. We specialize in static websites that are faster, more secure, and easier to manage than their dynamic counterparts.

Like any tool, Wordpress and other dynamic websites serve specific purposes. Our tool of choice for most small business websites are static websites, which are faster, more secure, and easier to manage than Wordpress sites.

Static websites are by far the best choice for websites that don't require a database or back-end server. Whenever possible, we opt for static websites to provide you the best performance and user experience.

You're seeing it in action right now: This website is completely static, even our Blog posts and Portfolio pages!

At Mesmer Design, we believe that web development and design shouldn't be complicated or expensive. We're committed to working with you every step of the way, from the initial consultation to the final launch, to ensure that you're completely satisfied with the end result. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help your business thrive online!

Our Philosophy

We put the user
first, by building
people-centric products

Site usability and user experience are the most important features of modern websites. User experience research has shown that poor website performance contributes to significant business loss.

Many modern websites serve too much information to the client, contain excessively large images, and perform too many HTTP requests to achieve strong performance, even when hosted on high-performance servers.

Some of the key findings of this study include:

  • The chance of a bounce (visitor leaving your site to try another) increases by 32% when a page load time goes from one to three seconds.
  • One in four visitors would abandon a website if it takes more than four seconds to load.
  • The two-to-three second mark is the turning point where bounce rates skyrocket - 40% of consumers will wait no more than three seconds before abandoning a site.

At Mesmer Design, we strive to reduce this overhead, and work hard to serve the highest performance websites. With our sites, you no longer have to worry about slow load times or poor website experience affecting your business. As we develop websites, we perform hundreds of automated tests to find speed and SEO leaks, and fix all of these issues before delivering your final product.

You focus on what matters: your website content, and we'll ensure your website is a tool for success rather than a burden.
