Website Design in North York

I’m a web and UX designer based in North York. I design websites for local businesses that are easy to use, quick to load and simple for you to update.

You work with me directly, not an account manager, and we can meet in person. My studio is in North York, and I’m happy to meet at a café, a coworking space or your office, or over video if that suits you better.

Website design services for North York businesses

Custom website design

A website designed around your business, your customers and what you want them to do: call, book, buy or get in touch. Every page is built for phones first, with clear navigation and copy that answers the questions customers actually ask.

Website redesign

If your site looks dated, is hard to update or isn’t bringing in enquiries, I start with a review of what’s working and what isn’t. The redesign keeps your existing URLs or redirects them, so you don’t lose the search rankings you already have.

WordPress websites

Most of the local sites I design run on WordPress. You get a site you can edit yourself, built with the block editor rather than a heavy page builder, so it stays fast and easy to maintain. More on my WordPress website design page.

Shopify stores

Selling online? I design and customize Shopify stores that are easy to shop, from the homepage and product pages to the cart. More on my Shopify store design page.

UX review and quick fixes

Not ready for a new site? I’ll go through your current one as a customer would and give you a short list of fixes, ranked by impact, that you or your developer can make.

Why work with a local designer

Most of my work is UX and product design for organizations like TD, Interac, Deloitte and Ontario Health. I bring the same research-led approach to local business websites, at a scale and budget that fits.

How a website project works

  1. First meeting. We meet in person or by video to talk about your business, your customers and what the website needs to do.
  2. Plan and quote. You get a fixed quote, a timeline and a list of pages and features.
  3. Design. I design the key pages and we go through them together, in person if you like, before anything is built.
  4. Build and test. The site is built and checked on phones, tablets and desktop, with your content in place.
  5. Launch and handover. I launch the site, set up analytics and redirects, and show you how to edit it.

Areas I serve

I work with businesses across North York, including Willowdale, Yonge and Sheppard, Bayview Village, York Mills, Don Mills and Downsview, and across the rest of Toronto and the GTA: Thornhill, Richmond Hill, Vaughan and Markham. I also work remotely with clients across Canada and the US.

North York web design FAQ

Can we meet in person?

Yes. I’m based in North York and meet clients at my studio, at a café or coworking space, or at your office. Video calls work too.

Should my site be on WordPress or Shopify?

If you mainly sell products online, Shopify is usually simpler. For most service businesses, WordPress gives you more flexibility. I’ll recommend one based on what you need.

Can you work on my existing website?

Yes. Many projects start with a review of the current site and a list of improvements ranked by impact. Sometimes a few changes are enough, and you don’t need a full redesign.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the number of pages and features. After our first meeting you get a fixed quote, so you know the cost before any work starts.

Can you help after the site launches?

Yes. I can stay on for new pages, updates and small fixes.

Do you also design apps and software?

Yes. Larger product work is described on my UX and UI design page.
