Business websites for Alberta companies, served remotely

01Running a business website in Alberta: tax and privacy

Tax first. A store selling to Alberta customers applies 5% GST and nothing else, which makes Alberta one of the simplest places in Canada for checkout tax. Sales into other provinces still need that province's rate, so a store that ships across Canada has to handle tax by destination.

Privacy is where Alberta differs from most of Canada. PIPA, not PIPEDA, governs customer data for most Alberta businesses, and it adds two duties a website touches. If personal information is lost or accessed without authorization and a reasonable person would see a real risk of significant harm, you notify the Information and Privacy Commissioner without unreasonable delay. And if a service provider outside Canada collects personal information for you, section 13.1 requires you to tell people how to get information about your policies on those providers and who can answer their questions.

That second duty reaches most modern websites, ours included. Form submissions can pass through hosting and email services based in the United States, and our engineering team in Patiala, India, may access inquiry and project information to deliver the work. Your privacy policy should name the providers outside Canada that handle your visitors' information, and we tell you which ones your build uses. Health custodians follow the Health Information Act instead of PIPA. General information only; a lawyer confirms what applies to you.

02Accessibility in Alberta

As of September 2026, Alberta has no general accessibility law for private-sector websites like Ontario's AODA rule or Manitoba's standard. Federally regulated businesses in Alberta, such as interprovincial trucking companies, fall under the Accessible Canada Act instead, and those with 10 or more employees publish an accessibility plan, a feedback process and progress reports.

For those clients we build the website to WCAG 2.1 AA and can publish the plan, feedback process and progress reports in accessible formats. For every other Alberta client, WCAG 2.1 AA is still the target we build to, because customers with a disability search for a plumber the same way everyone else does.

03Which Redenn products fit Alberta businesses

Alberta's small-business economy leans on the trades and on transport serving energy, agriculture and construction. HVAC, plumbing and electrical companies usually start with Business (CA$499) and Local Search Foundation (CA$199), plus the AI Receptionist (from CA$149/month) when missed calls are the leak. It says it is an AI assistant at the start of each call and whenever asked. Usage (AI, call minutes, SMS, email) is billed by each provider directly to your own account; none is included in our prices. Ask about a trial period to see your real usage first.

Trucking companies usually fit Business plus CRM integration (from CA$99), so quote requests land in one pipeline. Framing and construction contractors can look at Empire Framing Inc.: one site with a quote-request flow and service-specific pages for work across several provinces. Realtors fit Business Plus (CA$799); auto repair shops start at Starter (CA$299) with booking.

Prices are in Canadian dollars and exclude taxes. Any tax that applies is shown separately on your invoice.

04Local search in Alberta: Calgary, Edmonton and beyond

Calgary and Edmonton are separate markets. A company covering both needs two Google Business Profiles if it has two premises, or one profile with service areas if it does not. Build a Calgary page and an Edmonton page only when each says something different: crews, permits, projects completed in that city.

For companies competing province-wide, Search Growth adds technical search work and two researched articles or pages a month, and a person on the Redenn team edits and fact-checks each article before it goes live. Local Search Management covers a single location's profile, review requests and responses, and monthly reporting. Rankings are never promised.
