A Starter-Website for New RCICs and Small Companies
Many new RCICs approach us to get a quote for a website. Unfortunately, the costs for a full-scale website with multiple content pages, unique design and comprehensive functionality can reach $5,000-$10,000 CAD and is not always affordable for small businesses or new immigration consultants, especially those who have just launched their business. We at Schindler Consulting addressed this problem and designed a budget solution to help new businesses that had not yet gained a big revenue and cannot invest in the full-scale website and marketing. We called it an RCIC Starter-Website. This solution meets the basic needs of small businesses to promote their services online.
Meet the Starter-Website
It is based on a very simple approach – the mini-web resource with information about you and your services, real Google and Facebook reviews, links to your social media, payment and booking systems for your consultations, and your immigration blog. This website will introduce you as a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant and will allow easy marketing via Facebook or Instagram! A combination of a minimalistic website and an interesting blog can provide new immigration consultants with a starter boost.
Starter-Website will consist of a homepage, which will include the following blocks:
- Company logo and Contact info
- Your picture, bio and RCIC credentials of the consultant
- Google/Facebook reviews section
- Newsfeed/Immigration blog/the list of your services
You Can Choose from Premade Layouts. Check out our live demos below!

Where do I get content for my Starter-Website?
You can write news and articles for your blog by yourself. This might be the cheapest solution as it is completely free. Blogging about your services actually works! It is really enough to take two hours a week to write a small blog about recent news, your business or a successful case. Even one post per week will contribute to your website promotion and will help it rank higher locally and globally. On average, most small businesses write one blog per month, so even one update in two weeks will allow you to create 26 blogs per year.
Don’t have time to write? Hate writing articles? Not a problem! Let us help you! Our copywriters can prepare interesting articles on-demand or even chose the topics based on the relevant trends. All articles we write will be optimized for search engines, so they will also help to promote specific keywords related to your services. We offer one blog of 300-500 words for C$100.00 + HST. How many blogs do you need to improve your ranking? Well, the more – the better. However, based on our experience, you may need at least two blogs per month for a six-month period to promote your website.
How else can I promote my website?
If you don’t want to invest in original content creation, we have another solution for you. Use the power of social media and direct traffic to your starter website from Facebook with the help of our Immigration News Digest. Our team has developed a daily monitoring service of all updates of the Canadian immigration industry. Each daily issue includes all recent news, statistics and important regulatory updates. It is written in a Facebook format, with titles and hashtags, ready for publishing. All you need to do is just copy it to your social media, add an illustration and a link to your website. In addition, you can use the digest as a source for your own articles. This might be a perfect tool to promote your services and your website on Facebook with minimal investment.
- A basic fee for the daily digest is C$200 + HST per month.
- Every morning at 8-10 AM EST, from Monday to Friday, you will get a new issue in your inbox.
- Our Clients are authorized to publish the digest on their websites and social media.
- Every 1st of the month we send you the invoice for the previous month via Wave.
- We accept e-transfers, PayPal, and credit cards.
- You can also safely save your credit card in the Wave and get charged automatically.
