Open the briefNanaimo is the gateway to mid-Island and the largest city north of Victoria - which makes it the natural service hub for a huge catchment of residential, commercial, and recreational customers. We build Nanaimo sites that capture that wider Island intent: ranking well for both Nanaimo and surrounding communities like Lantzville, Parksville, and Ladysmith.
Nanaimo's catchment extends well past its city limits - residents in Parksville, Qualicum, Ladysmith, and Lantzville routinely treat it as their primary service centre. A Nanaimo site that lists explicit service-area towns (and pins them on a real schema map) consistently outperforms 'Nanaimo + nearby' generics.
Ferry-anchored search is a real pattern: 'near Departure Bay terminal' and 'walking distance from ferry' queries spike on weekends and convert at high rates. Mid-Island retirement communities drive heavy senior-friendly UX expectations - larger fonts, slower-paced motion, clear phone-first contact patterns.
Nanaimo is the Island's e-commerce shipping hub - Canada Post and major couriers all use it as their distribution anchor. Local-pickup e-commerce flows that integrate Departure Bay-friendly logistics consistently capture mid-Island customers that mainland operators can't fulfill quickly.

The Bomb online was great. Cody was easy to work with and was patient with me and my busy schedule. And at the end met a fairly abrupt deadline.
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Cody on my rebrand and website re-creation and it was incredible! Cody is so professional and talented."
"Cody was great to work with. He is very professional and extremely talented! I highly recommend Cody New for website design and branding."
"Cody captured exactly what we wanted on the first try. The site looks like a million bucks and the leads have followed. Worth every dollar."
The questions clients ask us most. Open one. We answer how we'd answer over coffee.
Most websites launch in 4 to 6 weeks. We give you a fixed timeline up front and we hit it. No endless "coming soon" phases.
Yes. Fully managed hosting on a global edge network with security monitoring, daily backups, and direct access to our team for support.
Every project is different, but most of our custom builds land between $6,000 and $25,000. We give you a transparent fixed quote after our first conversation - no hidden fees, no surprises, no runaway hourly bills.
Always. We design mobile-first because that's where most of your traffic comes from. Every site we ship is fully responsive, accessible, and tuned for Core Web Vitals.
Yes - we can build you a content management system if you want to manage updates in-house. Most clients prefer to text or email us small changes; we usually turn them around within a business day.
A pretty site is useless if it doesn't convert. Every page we design has a clear purpose and a measurable conversion goal - calls, quote requests, bookings, or purchases. That's the whole point.
No. Templates are slow, generic, and impossible to differentiate with. We build everything custom from a design system tailored to your brand and your buyers.
You do. 100%. You own the code, the content, the domain, and the assets. No licenses, no lock-ins, no hostage situations.
We can - and we will when needed. You know your business best, but we'll happily write the whole site for you or work alongside your existing copywriter.
We don't disappear. Most clients stay on with us for managed hosting and ongoing improvements. You get priority support, regular performance reports, and a partner who actually picks up the phone.
Tell us about your Nanaimo project. We'll respond inside one business day with a transparent quote and a realistic timeline.
