Web developer in Pasig
Websites, online stores and technical SEO for Pasig businesses — built remotely from Islamabad, quoted in PHP, scoped in writing before anything starts.
There is a version of this conversation where you are sold a brand refresh, a content strategy and a six-week discovery phase. For most Pasig businesses that is not the constraint. The constraint is that the site is slow, the phone number is hard to find and nobody has looked at the analytics in a year. Fixing those three is cheaper and works faster.
What working with a Filipino client actually changes
These are the terms that differ by country rather than by town. They apply to every business in Philippines, Pasig included, and they are the substance of what this page is claiming.
| Quoted and invoiced in | PHP — never a converted figure presented at the end |
|---|---|
| Tax position | VAT at 12% |
| Your customers' data sits under | the Data Privacy Act of 2012 |
| Lawful transfer mechanism | a DPA meeting NPC requirements for outsourced processing |
| Checkout can realistically use | GCash, Maya, PayMongo, and Dragonpay |
| My day, in Pasig time | 12:00–21:00 — about 6 hours inside a normal working day |
One thing worth knowing about building for Philippines
GCash and Maya are wallets rather than card rails, and cash-on-delivery is still a meaningful share of Philippine e-commerce. Both need to exist in the order model or the store only serves a minority of buyers.
Accessibility on a Pasig build, and why it is not optional
Keyboard navigation, real contrast ratios, form labels that are actually associated with their inputs, and alt text that describes rather than repeats. None of it is expensive when built in from the start and all of it is expensive to retrofit, which is the entire argument for doing it in the first pass.
The commercial case is simpler than the legal one: a site that a screen reader can navigate is a site that a search engine can parse, because both are reading the same semantic structure. Accessibility work and technical SEO overlap far more than either discipline usually admits, and in Pasig the same build serves both.
Retail and e-commerce in Pasig
A store is judged at the checkout, not the homepage. For Philippines that means the payment methods have to match what people actually use — GCash, Maya, PayMongo, and Dragonpay — and the cart has to survive a slow connection and a page refresh. Most abandoned baskets are not indecision; they are a checkout that broke and gave no reason why.
The second issue is stock truth. A product page saying "in stock" when it is not costs you the sale and the customer, and the fix is unglamorous plumbing between wherever your stock actually lives and the storefront. That is worth a day of work far more than the product photography carousel is.
A mobile layout nobody tested on a real phone
Desktop-first builds fail in predictable places: a navigation menu that cannot be closed, a table forcing the whole page sideways, tap targets too close together, and a sticky banner sitting over the button. Each one is invisible on a laptop and each one loses customers.
Most visitors to a Pasig small business site arrive on a phone, so I design at phone width first and widen from there. That ordering is not a stylistic preference — it is the only way the small screen gets the attention the majority of your traffic deserves.
Hiring a developer who is not in Pasig
Currency is worth being blunt about. Quoting a Filipino client in PHP and then invoicing something else at a rate that moved is a way of raising the price quietly, and it is common enough that you should ask any overseas supplier about it directly. The number agreed at scoping is the number invoiced, and exchange-rate movement is my problem rather than yours.

What I am not claiming about Pasig
A location page is the easiest place on a website to imply something untrue, so here is the other side of it plainly:
- I have no office, postal address or phone number in Pasig
- I cannot meet you in person, and if that is a requirement you should hire locally
- I am not claiming existing clients in Pasig specifically — my live work is listed on the work page and you can check it
- Nothing on this page is a guarantee of search rankings, which no developer can honestly offer
Pasig web development — common questions
- Who owns the website when it is finished?
- You do, completely. The domain is registered in your name, hosting sits in your account, the code lives in a repository you control, and any payment provider account is opened in your business name. Credentials are handed to you as they are created rather than at the end, so you are never locked out of your own site.
- What currency will I be invoiced in?
- PHP. Quotes, milestones and the final invoice are all written in PHP so you are never comparing a converted figure against a local supplier's. Regarding tax: VAT at 12%.
- What payment methods can my Pasig checkout accept?
- For Philippines: GCash, Maya, PayMongo, and Dragonpay. The right combination depends on your average basket and your customers, and picking wrong is expensive — the payment method a buyer expects but cannot find is one of the most common reasons a checkout is abandoned at the final step.
- How do you handle our customers' data under Data Privacy Act of 2012?
- Your customer data is governed by the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and sending it to a developer in Pakistan is a restricted transfer. That is resolved by a DPA meeting NPC requirements for outsourced processing, published on this site and pre-signed before you send an enquiry — not drafted after you ask about it.
- Do I need to provide the content and images?
- Content, yes — you know your business and I do not. I will restructure and edit what you send so it reads for the web, and I will tell you where a section is missing. Photography is worth paying a local photographer for; stock images of people in offices are recognisable as stock and quietly cost you credibility.
- Can you migrate my Pasig site without losing rankings?
- Yes, and the redirect map is the whole job. Every existing URL is mapped to its new equivalent with a 301 before launch, and anything with no equivalent goes to the closest relevant page rather than the homepage. Sites lose rankings in migration because that mapping was skipped, not because migration is inherently risky.
- How much does a website cost in Pasig?
- A business website starts from ₱4,600 and goes live in about three days. An e-commerce build starts from ₱8,700 in around seven days, and a custom application from ₱12,000 in ten. Those are starting figures — the exact number is fixed in writing once scope is agreed, and it does not move after that.
