A Vancouver website
that doesn't cost Vancouver prices.

Vancouver agencies charge $5,000 to $15,000 for a small business website. Most small businesses don't need to spend that much. I build clean, custom websites for Vancouver businesses starting at $500, each one designed and coded by hand.

The problem

Vancouver's web design market has a gap.

Vancouver has plenty of web design agencies, but most of them are set up to serve funded startups, tech companies, and enterprise clients. Their minimum budgets start at $5,000, their timelines run several months, and their processes involve discovery phases, wireframes, and project managers. That kind of structure makes sense for a complex web application, but it's a lot of overhead when you run a physiotherapy clinic on Main Street.

On the other end, there are platforms like Squarespace and Wix. They sound easy enough, but in practice you end up spending a weekend learning a drag-and-drop editor, choosing a template that looks like every other business in your category, and ending up with something you're not especially proud of.

There's a gap between a $10,000 agency project and a DIY template, and that's the space I work in.

How this compares to other options.

vs. A Gastown agency

Vancouver agencies have beautiful offices, big teams, and pricing to match. A small business site from a decent agency typically runs $5,000 to $15,000, takes 6 to 12 weeks, and involves a process designed for much larger projects. If you're a yoga studio on Commercial Drive or an accountant in Kitsilano, that's a lot of money for a website that one person could build in two weeks.

vs. Squarespace or Wix

After two years of Squarespace at $33/month, you've spent nearly $800 on a site you never fully customised, built on a platform you don't own. I charge $500 once and the site is yours. There's no ongoing subscription, no platform dependency, and no drag-and-drop frustration.

vs. A remote freelancer

I'm based in BC, so we share the same timezone and the same understanding of what a small business in Vancouver looks like. I'm not going to disappear after launch. I'm still here next year when you need something updated, and you can always reach me by email.

Your Vancouver business deserves a proper website.
