St. Lawrence counted 1,115 residents in 2021, 6.5% fewer than in 2016, so most customers are people who already know the area. A website for a St. Lawrence business has to work for neighbours who already know you and for people searching from further away. Our CA$119 plan covers the website or online store, your domain, email and hosting, ready within 3 business days on a temporary link.
No setup fee: you only pay the CA$119 monthly fee after you approve your website.

The legal basics for St. Lawrence businesses online
A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:
- PIPEDA sets the ground rules for how private-sector organizations collect, use and disclose personal information. Office of the Privacy Commissioner: PIPEDA
- Consent is at the heart of Canada’s anti-spam legislation (CASL): express consent means someone has agreed, verbally or in writing, to receive a commercial electronic message from you, and senders should be ready to provide proof of that consent. Canada’s anti-spam legislation
