Frequently asked
Your questions, answered.
If you don't see your question below, send us a note — we read every one.
01Is there a cost to be nominated or to claim a revived site?+
Nominating a business is free. If we build a new version of a site and the owner decides to claim it, we discuss a fair, transparent fee at that point — only after they've seen the real result.
02Why do you build the website before asking?+
Business owners are busy. Looking at mockups and listening to sales pitches takes time and imagination. We'd rather invest that time ourselves and let the finished work speak.
03What happens if a business doesn't want their revived site?+
Nothing. There's no obligation, no follow-up email campaign, no pressure. We move on to the next business that deserves better.
04Who actually owns the revived website?+
If you claim it, you own it. We transfer the site, code, and content to you. You're never locked in.
05Do you work with businesses outside of Calgary?+
Yes. Our office is in Calgary, but the work is fully remote — we help small businesses anywhere they're being judged by an outdated website.
06How can I make sure my business is considered?+
Submit your site through the Claim page, or have someone nominate you. We review every submission.
07Will my new site work on phones?+
Always. Every Revive site is built mobile-first and tested on real devices.
08Who is behind Website Revive?+
We're a division of Abacus, a Calgary-based software development agency. Same team, same standards.
