You run the business. We run the website

Why local businesses call us

• Niagara-owned and Niagara-based: Run from the Niagara region, for businesses in the same towns we live in: trades, shops, studios and clinics alike.
• Response within one business day: Call, or leave your number, and you hear back inside one business day, from the person who builds the site, not a queue ticket.
• Every price published on the site: Setup fees and monthly fees are on this page in full. No quote form standing between you and a number.

Ready to hand the website over?

Only your name and number are needed; the rest helps us prepare. We call you back, ask what the business actually needs, and tell you straight what we would build.

We reply within one business day. No obligation, and no sales script.

Numbers we can actually stand behind

Everything below is either on this page or on a profile you can open yourself. Nothing here is a projection.

• 12 Niagara municipalities (Every one has a page of its own on this site, not a name on a list.)
• 9 Services with the price published (Setup and monthly, written down, before you speak to anyone.)
• 5 On Google (From 11 reviews. Small number, real profile: open it and read them.)
• 0 Hidden fees (Add-ons, the takeover fee and the annual discount are all on this page too.)
• 7 Days a week the line is open (12:00–21:00 Eastern, every day. Not around the clock, and we do not say it is.)

What you will not find here: a client count, a project count, years in business, or a promise about leads, rankings or revenue. We do not publish those, and a number nobody can check is worth nothing to you.

Work we have actually shipped

Axel Rodriguez Photography (Client build)

Niagara Region. A portfolio and enquiry site for a sports, branding and events photographer, built to load fast on a phone and turn a browse into a booking. axelphotography.ca

Niagara Volunteer Opportunities (Our own venture)

Niagara Region. A free hub that connects people in Niagara with local non-profits that need help, including students working through their 40 hours. niagaravolunteer.ca

This one is ours rather than a client's. We built it, we run it, and it is here because you can open it and see for yourself.

Great value for money, and very easy to make any changes to your website with these guys. Must check them out

Axel is the client behind the build above: the review and the work are the same job.

Concept builds: what we'd ship for a business like yours

This is our own concept build, not a client site. It exists so you can see the standard of work before you spend anything, and you can open the whole thing rather than look at a screenshot of it. The trade is the example, not the limit: the same build works for a studio, a salon or a clinic.

Filipino restaurant: Manila Bay (Concept build)

A fictional Filipino restaurant in St. Catharines: the menu with real prices, the story behind the kitchen, and a booking button on every screen.

Simple, transparent pricing

A one-time build fee plus a monthly that covers the ongoing work. Every number is on this page. Pick the one that fits where the business is right now.

We checked twice: searching Niagara web design agencies for prices returns quote forms, not numbers. Every figure here is what you pay.

Save 20% on the monthly fee when you prepay 12 months upfront.

Why Paragon

• Transparency: You get a portal showing exactly what we are doing and when, from day one. No mystery invoices, and no chasing anyone for an update.
• Respect: Your time, your budget and your customers. We never oversell, and we say so plainly when something is not worth paying for.
• Innovation: Search changed again in 2026. We keep up with it so you can go back to running the shop, the truck or the studio.

How it works

1. The first call: Thirty minutes on the phone: what the business does, who you want calling you, and what is not working online now. We ask; you decide.
2. Design and build: We design and build the site in one to two weeks, with revisions until it is right. You see it before anyone else does.
3. Launch and support: We launch, then keep it running: hosting, SSL, backups and three content changes a month. You never have to log in.

What the research says about being findable

These are industry averages published by third-party researchers, not results from Paragon's own clients. They describe what people told a survey. They are not a prediction of what any one business will see, and Paragon does not guarantee outcomes of any kind.

Who you're actually hiring

I'm Dax Tigley, and Paragon Media Canada is me, a website designer in the Niagara region. I started it in April 2026 because local trades kept getting quoted five figures for a website, or handed a template nobody ever updated again. Photographers, shops and clinics get the same treatment, so the work is open to any local business here.

You deal with the person who builds the site and answers the phone. No account manager relaying messages to a developer you never meet, and no agency turnover halfway through the job.
