Your Problems. My Solutions.
It's that simple, I promise.
I'm confident I will help you achieve your commercial goals online and make sure you get the results you're looking for. From small low-cost online brochure web sites to full scale content management system sites and ecommerce solutions, I take on each project with the latest technology, latest knowledge and a passion to build a web site that represents your business and brand. With some careful planning, a few creative ideas and their realization, I take those problems and turn them into profit.
My process
-
1. Listen.
It's important that I understand your goals and needs, so every project starts with listening. I'll take the time and ask the important questions before the project starts.
-
2. Plan.
In the web world, one size doesn't fit all. Based on the insight you've given me, my development experience, and a little research, I'll strategize the best possible solution for you while staying within your budget.
-
3. Design.
Of course you need a web site that looks good. However, beyond that you need a website that effectively communicates your message, is easy to use, and entices your users to return again and again. I'll work side by side with you to find a design that will get results.
-
4. Develop.
The world's greatest design isn't worth much if it isn't deployed effectively. Whether it be standards compliant website coding, Drupal's award winning CMS, or industry leading software from Adobe, I always work with the best.
-
5. Follow Up.
Just because your site is live, doesn't mean you've heard the last of me. I want to know how it's working. I want to know how much your Google traffic has improved. I want to hear your visitor's feedback. I want to make sure you're getting ROI.

About Lee
My name is Lee vanHalderen and I am a freelance web designer that makes my home in beautiful Nanaimo, British Columbia. I enjoy working with people who are passionate about their business and promoting it, which is why I specialize in small-medium business web development‚ start–up and maintenance.
Until recently, freelance web design has been secondary to earning a University degree in Computer Science and a three year position at a web design firm. During my three years at Spincaster Productions Inc in Kelowna BC I gained valuable industry knowledge and skills and produced many high quality web site designs. Our relationship ended on good terms, and I moved out to beautiful Vancouver Island to be around family and friends.
Although working for an established firm had its benefits, I love being small. It allows me to focus 110% on every project I undertake. It also enables me to work on projects one at a time, so you’ll never hear me saying ‘I’ll try to fit you in’, because if you’re my client, you’ll be my only client until your project is complete. I commit myself 110% to each and every client and do my utmost to create and maintain a happy client-developer relationship
Enough about me, now tell me about you
If you think that working with me would be a fun, profitable experience for both of us, get in touch — I love hearing about new and interesting projects.
