Do you actually work with businesses in Langley?

Yes, remotely. I work with Canadian clients from Islamabad, quoting in CAD and invoicing in CAD. I have no office, address or phone number in Langley and will not pretend otherwise. If your project needs someone physically present, hire locally — I will say so in the first reply rather than after a deposit.

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.

What currency will I be invoiced in?

CAD. Quotes, milestones and the final invoice are all written in CAD so you are never comparing a converted figure against a local supplier's. Regarding tax: GST/HST at 5–15% depending on province — my invoices are zero-rated exports and carry no Canadian tax.

How much does a website cost in Langley?

A business website starts from C$110 and goes live in about three days. An e-commerce build starts from C$210 in around seven days, and a custom application from C$270 in ten. Those are starting figures — the exact number is fixed in writing once scope is agreed, and it does not move after that.

How do you handle our customers' data under PIPEDA federally?

Your customer data is governed by PIPEDA federally, with Quebec Law 25 layered on top if you have Quebec customers, and sending it to a developer in Pakistan is a restricted transfer. That is resolved by a written DPA naming Pakistan as the processing location, which PIPEDA requires you to disclose to your own customers, published on this site and pre-signed before you send an enquiry — not drafted after you ask about it.

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.

How long does a Langley project actually take?

Three days for a business site, seven for a store, ten for a custom application. That holds because the process is fixed rather than improvised and because your content exists on day one. What stretches a build is almost never the code — it is waiting for copy, logos and photographs, so those are requested before the clock starts.

Website redesign and modernisation in Langley

The most common way a redesign goes wrong is not the design. It is that the new site ships with new URLs, no redirect map, and traffic that took four years to build disappears in a fortnight. Preventing that is a checklist, not a talent, and it is included here rather than sold as an extra. For Langley businesses, quoted in CAD from $120, typically live in 5 days.

What website redesign and modernisation includes for a Langley business

Fixed scope, agreed in writing before development starts. From $120, typically live in 5 days.

Full crawl of the existing site before anything changes, so nothing is lost by accident
A URL-by-URL redirect map, in a single hop, tested before launch and again after
Modernised responsive design built mobile-first, on the content you already rank for
Content migration with headings, internal links and metadata preserved deliberately rather than by luck
Core Web Vitals brought inside the thresholds during the rebuild — images, fonts and render path
Structured data rebuilt to match the new page types
Post-launch indexation check: Search Console coverage, sitemap resubmitted, 404s monitored
30 days of snag fixes after go-live

The terms for a Canadian client

Starting price	From $120, quoted and invoiced in CAD
Typical timeline	5 days once content is supplied
Tax position	GST/HST at 5–15% depending on province — my invoices are zero-rated exports and carry no Canadian tax

Payment rails available	Stripe, Interac e-Transfer for deposits, and Moneris where an existing merchant account has to stay
My day in Langley time	00:00–09:00 — a shifted window is agreed in writing instead

Why this matters for Canada specifically

Quebec Law 25 caught a lot of Canadian sites out: consent has to be explicit and granular, and the default cookie banner most agencies drop in does not meet it. I build the consent layer properly rather than bolting on a plugin.

What actually ships when a Langley project goes live

A handover for a Langley client is not a link and a login. It is the repository, the hosting account in your name, the domain registered to you, the payment provider account under your business, and a written record of every credential as it was created rather than dumped in one email at the end.

The test I apply is uncomfortable but correct: if I disappeared tomorrow, could another developer pick this up on Monday without calling me? If the answer is no, the handover is not finished. That standard is why the documentation takes a day I do not bill separately — it is part of the build, not an upsell.

Retail and e-commerce in Langley

A store is judged at the checkout, not the homepage. For Canada that means the payment methods have to match what people actually use — Stripe, Interac e-Transfer for deposits, and Moneris where an existing merchant account has to stay — 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 redesign that quietly deleted the rankings

The classic disaster: a new site launches, looks far better, and organic enquiries fall off a cliff within a fortnight. The cause is almost always identical — the URLs changed and nothing was redirected, so every page that had accumulated years of authority now returns a 404.

Preventing it is a redirect map built before launch: every old URL to its closest new equivalent with a 301, and anything without an equivalent pointed at the nearest relevant page rather than the homepage. If your Langley site is being redesigned by anyone, ask to see that map. If it does not exist, that is the entire risk in one document.

What I am not claiming about Langley

I have no office, postal address or phone number in Langley
I cannot meet you in person, and if that is a requirement you should hire locally
I am not claiming existing clients in Langley 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
