Eric Ho, the person behind Ericho Studio

Hi, I'm Eric.

Ericho Studio is just me, so you deal with the person doing the work. I live and work in Markham. I work in public services across data analytics, finance and business systems, and I've also worked in marketing roles managing social media and designing posters and websites. I bring both sides to your business: a site that looks sharp, reads clearly and makes it easy for customers to say yes. Outside of client work, I teach first aid and make small indie games.

// 05 questions

Questions

Do I have to leave Wix or Squarespace?

No. I refresh it where it lives, so you keep your login and your bill.

Which platforms do you work with?

Wix, Squarespace and GoDaddy, plus most other drag-and-drop builders. Not sure? Send your link and I'll tell you.

What do you need from me?

Your website link, a login to add me as a collaborator, and about 20 minutes to answer a few questions about your business. Photos of your team or your work help a lot.

How do I pay?

Nothing until you've seen and approved your mock-up. Then 50% to start and 50% at launch.

What if I don't like the mock-up?

Then you keep the ideas and owe nothing.

Will my site go down during the refresh?

No. I work on a copy and switch it over when you approve, so your customers never see a half-finished site.

What if I need more than 5 pages?

Tell me up front. Extra pages are quoted before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Will this help me show up on Google?

Yes, the basics: clear page titles and descriptions, faster pages, a tidied Google listing, and words that match what people search for. It's not an ongoing SEO campaign, but it fixes the common mistakes DIY sites make.

Can I still edit it myself after?

Yes. You'll get a short guide to the things you'll actually change. Or send changes to me with the Care Plan.

Who owns the site?

You do. Everything stays in your name. I work as a collaborator on your account.

Do you build brand-new websites?

Yes, if you don't have one yet or yours can't be saved. Ask for a quote.

Do you also design logos, posters or social media graphics?

Yes. Logos and brand kits, print-ready posters and flyers, and social media post templates and graphics that you post yourself. Ask for a quote, or bundle them with a refresh.

Do you make sites in Chinese?

Yes. I can set up English and Chinese versions of your site.

Do you work outside Markham?

Yes. Anywhere in the GTA, and remotely anywhere in Canada.

See your site, redone. Free.

Send your link. You'll get a mock-up of your new homepage within two business days.
