Web Design & Development Services
I design and build websites and web applications for businesses across Eastern Ontario and the GTA, and for organizations across Canada.
Design & Build
Website Design
Page layouts planned around what your customers look for first, designed for phones first, and built by the person who designed them.
Small Business Websites
A new website for your business, or a rebuild of the one you've outgrown, that loads fast, is easy to update, and is set up to be found in local search.
Frontend Development
Responsive interfaces in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with Angular, React, or Vue.js when an app needs them, built to load fast on any device.
Ecommerce & Platforms
Ecommerce Development
Online stores that take payments reliably, keep inventory accurate, and have a checkout short enough that people finish it.
Payment Integration
Stripe, Moneris, PayPal, and others, connected to your checkout, memberships, and invoices, with receipts and renewals that run on their own.
Membership Systems
Custom-built membership platforms with payment integration, automated renewals, and tiered application workflows.
Engineering & Data
Backend Development
Server-side development in PHP (Laravel, CodeIgniter, WordPress) and Node.js for web applications, APIs, and custom platforms.
Database Design
MySQL and PostgreSQL database design, from schema planning and normalization to indexing and fixing slow queries.
API Development
RESTful API design with authentication, rate limiting, webhooks, and third-party integrations for websites, mobile apps, CRMs, and payment systems.
Performance & Operations
DevOps & Tools
Git workflows, Linux servers, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines, so releases are automated and servers are set up properly.
SEO
Technical SEO for sites that need to rank better: speed, structured data, metadata, and fixing whatever stops Google from reading your pages.
Web Security
OWASP best practices, secure authentication, input validation, and vulnerability prevention to keep applications safe.
How a Project Runs
Every project goes through the same stages, whatever its size. A bigger build just spends longer in each one.
-
Discovery
We talk about your business, your customers, what isn't working now, and your budget. I put the scope and a fixed quote in writing, so nobody is guessing later.
-
Design
Content structure comes first, then the layout, designed for phones first. You see and approve the design before any production code is written, because changing a layout is cheap and changing a built site isn't.
-
Build
I build on a staging site you can check any time. The backend, database, integrations, frontend, and technical SEO all go in as the site is built, not afterwards.
-
Launch & support
I test on real devices, launch, and walk you through managing your own content. I'm still around afterwards for updates, fixes, and whatever comes next.
Working Locally
Most of my projects run remotely, over email and video calls, so where you're based doesn't limit much. I'm a web designer and web developer in Belleville and work with businesses across Eastern Ontario and the GTA. Each area below has its own page with local work and details.
