Vaughan web design & local SEO

Web design & SEO services, all under one roof

From the first custom design to the local SEO that gets you found on Google, I handle your whole website personally — built fast, built to convert, and supported long after launch. No agency runaround, no three-freelancer juggling act. Have a look at what I do, then grab a free, no-pressure quote.

What I do

Everything a local business needs online — handled by one person

Design, build, SEO and ongoing care. One direct point of contact for all of it, start to finish.

Web Design

Your website is the first impression most customers get, so I make it count. Custom, modern layouts that build trust the second someone lands, reflect your brand properly, and guide visitors straight to a call or enquiry — no recycled templates, no generic stock look.

  • Custom, conversion-focused layouts
  • Mobile-first on every screen
  • Your brand, colours & voice — done right
  • Clear calls-to-action that drive enquiries
  • Accessible, easy-to-read design

Web Development

A good-looking design only works if it loads instantly and never breaks. I hand-code every site for speed and reliability — clean, lightweight code with strong Core Web Vitals. Fast sites rank better, convert better, and keep customers from bouncing, so you get more from the same traffic.

  • Strong Core Web Vitals
  • Hand-built code, no bloated builders
  • Secure, reliable hosting setup
  • Simple for you to update
  • Clean, search-friendly structure

Local SEO

When someone nearby searches "web design near me" or "plumber in Woodbridge," you want to be the business they find. I set your site and Google Business Profile up to show when local customers are ready to buy — local keyword groundwork, schema markup and the on-page work that moves you up the map pack.

  • Google Business Profile setup
  • Local keyword groundwork
  • Schema & on-page SEO
  • Location pages across the GTA
  • Review & reputation prompts

E-Commerce

Ready to sell online? I build stores that are genuinely simple to run and engineered to turn browsers into orders. Product setup, secure checkout, payments and shipping — I handle the technical heavy lifting so you can focus on fulfilling orders. Fast, mobile-friendly and SEO-ready, so shoppers find you and trust you.

  • Secure, trusted checkout
  • Product & inventory setup
  • Payments & tax wired in
  • Built to convert on mobile
  • Simple to manage day-to-day

Redesigns

If your current site is dated, slow, or quietly losing you customers, a redesign turns it into a real asset. I rebuild it into something fast and modern while carefully protecting the rankings and traffic you've already earned — a fresh look, a speed and SEO overhaul, and a site that finally reflects how good your business is.

  • Keep the search equity you've earned
  • Fresh, modern, on-brand look
  • Full speed & SEO overhaul
  • Content migration handled for you
  • Zero-downtime launch

Website Care

Launching is the start, not the finish line. Website Care keeps your site fast, safe and current — updates, backups, security and small edits handled so you never have to think about them. Need a new page, a price change or a seasonal banner? One message and it's done, straight to the person who built it.

  • Monthly maintenance & updates
  • Secure hosting & backups
  • Security monitoring & fixes
  • Small edits handled for you
  • Quick replies from a real person
Pricing

Fixed quotes, transparent from day one

No vague hourly bills, no surprise invoices. After a quick discovery call I send you a clear, fixed quote covering the whole project, so you know exactly what you're paying before any work begins.

Typical range

Most small business websites land between $1,500 and $5,000, depending on the number of pages, features and whether you need e-commerce.

One fixed price

You approve a single, transparent quote up front. No hourly meter running and no scope-creep invoices landing later.

Care plans

Optional monthly Website Care keeps everything updated, backed up and supported, billed at a simple flat rate you agree on in advance.
