Hi, I'm Ethan.I build websites for Western Canadian businesses.
Northwind Web Co. is a one-person studio. When you hire me, you deal with me — not an account manager, not a support queue, not a faceless agency.
Good businesses were losing work to worse ones.
I kept meeting the same situation. A plumber with twenty years of experience and a spotless reputation, losing jobs to a competitor who was simply easier to find. A salon whose regulars loved them, but whose only online presence was an outdated listing with the wrong phone number.
It was never a skill problem. It was a visibility problem — and most website options make it worse. Agencies quote thousands for a brochure site. Build-it-yourself platforms hand you a blank page and wish you luck. Neither is built for someone who's on a job site at seven in the morning.
So Northwind Web Co. is the version I wish existed: honest pricing, plain English, and a completed website at the end — domain connected, mobile-friendly and set up to be found on Google. You don't have to learn anything or manage anything.

Four rules I don't break.
Plain English, always
You'll never hear me say 'responsive breakpoints' or 'CMS architecture'. I'll explain what I'm doing, why it matters for your customers, and what it costs — in words that make sense.
The price is the price
My prices are published: $400 CAD with hosting and maintenance handled, or $350 CAD to run it yourself. You pay nothing until your website is delivered — no deposit, no hourly billing that quietly grows.
Built for a phone first
Your customers are searching on a phone, often while standing in the rain outside your shop. Everything I build is designed for that moment before it's designed for a desktop.
You own what I build
Your domain, your hosting, your site, your content. I set it up in your name. If you ever want to take it elsewhere, nothing is held hostage.
Let's see what your site could look like.
Send me a few details about your business and I'll put together a free mock-up of your homepage. No cost, no obligation, no pressure.
