Vandesign is a Vancouver web design and web development studio specializing in fast, modern, conversion-focused websites for local and international businesses. Our work combines custom design, Webflow development, SEO best practices, and digital marketing strategy so your website not only looks great but consistently generates qualified leads and business enquiries.
As a specialized Webflow agency, we use Webflow to design, build, and launch pixel-perfect, responsive websites without heavy, slow plugins. This means cleaner code, faster load times, stronger SEO foundations, easier content management, and more flexibility for design and animations compared to typical WordPress builds.
Most Webflow website projects with a specialist Vancouver web development agency like Vandesign fall in the $5,000–$10,000 CAD range, depending on complexity, number of pages, content variations, and integrations. This usually includes custom design, Webflow development, mobile optimization, core SEO setup, structured data, and launch support.
Our typical web design process includes discovery and strategy, UX/UI design, Webflow development, SEO implementation, and launch support. We start by clarifying your goals and target audience, then create wireframes and designs, build the site in Webflow, integrate SEO and schema, and finally test and launch your new website with training for your team to manage content easily.
Yes. Vandesign frequently migrates WordPress websites to Webflow while protecting or improving SEO performance. The process includes full URL and content mapping, 301 redirects, metadata and schema preservation, technical SEO checks, and performance optimization so your rankings remain stable and, in many cases, improve after launch.
Yes. We design and build custom e-commerce websites in Webflow tailored to your products, brand, and sales process. Our e-commerce projects focus on fast, mobile-friendly shopping experiences, clear product architecture, secure checkout, and SEO-ready category and product pages, helping you attract more traffic and convert visitors into paying customers.
While trends come and go and algorithms shift overnight, one thing has remained constant for us: our commitment to building lasting relationships with the businesses and people we serve. For over a decade, we've had the privilege of working with an incredible range of clients across Vancouver, the Lower Mainland, and beyond. From ambitious Yaletown startups taking their first bold steps into the market to established family-owned institutions in Burnaby and North Vancouver looking to modernize and grow, we've been there through it all.But here's what we're most proud of: it's not just the projects. It's the partnerships. Many of the clients we worked with in our very first year are still clients today. That's not an accident. It's the result of a philosophy that puts people first, results second—understanding that when you genuinely care about a client's success, the results will naturally follow.Our portfolio stands as a living testament to this journey. It's a diverse tapestry of successful engagements that span the entire digital spectrum. We haven't boxed ourselves into one narrow specialty because your business isn't one-dimensional, and your digital strategy shouldn't be either. Whether you need a sleek, high-converting brochure site, a complex web application, or a complete brand overhaul, we bring the same level of passion, precision, and care to every single project.More Than Just Pretty Interfaces: The Art of Solving Real ProblemsLet's talk about mobile apps for a moment. Everyone wants one. Not everyone needs one. And even fewer people understand what actually makes a mobile application successful. Over the years, we've conceived, designed, and launched intuitive mobile applications for clients across a wide range of industries. But we've never approached an app project by asking "what would look cool?" Instead, we start with a more fundamental question: "what problem are we trying to solve?"That user-first mindset is what separates a downloaded app from a frequently used app. We've built tools that help field service teams coordinate complex schedules, apps that connect local artisans with customers in their neighbourhood, and platforms that simplify what were once frustrating, paper-heavy processes. In every case, the technology fades into the background. What shines through is the experience: seamless, intuitive, and genuinely helpful.The same philosophy carries through to everything we build. When we design and develop responsive websites, we're not just creating digital storefronts. We're creating destinations. We're building spaces where your customers can get to know you, trust you, and ultimately choose you over the competition. Whether someone is visiting your site on a massive desktop monitor in a Kitsilano home office or on a smartphone during their SeaBus commute, the experience should feel effortless. That's what responsive design truly means—not just fitting content onto different screen sizes, but ensuring your brand feels right, no matter the context.Building Brands That Actually Mean SomethingA logo is not a brand. A colour palette is not a brand. A tagline, while nice, is certainly not a brand. A brand is the sum total of every interaction someone has with your business. It's how you answer the phone. It's the tone of your emails. It's the way your website makes people feel. And yes, it's also the visual identity that ties it all together.Over the years, we've built comprehensive visual identity systems for businesses at every stage of growth. For some, that meant starting from absolute scratch—taking a founder's vision and translating it into a visual language that investors, customers, and employees could instantly connect with. For others, it meant the equally challenging task of evolving an established brand without losing the equity built up over decades.We approach every identity project with a deep respect for the work our clients do. We immerse ourselves in their world, their customers, their competition, and their aspirations. The result is never a "template" brand that looks like everything else in their industry. It's something distinctive. Something that communicates brand essence with clarity, confidence, and power. Whether it's a refreshed logo, a carefully considered typography system, or a complete brand guideline document that sets the rules for years to come, we deliver work that stands the test of time.E-Commerce That Doesn't Just Work—It Works OvertimeHere's a truth that too many agencies ignore: an online store that looks beautiful but doesn't convert is just an expensive art project. And you're not in business to create art. You're in business to generate revenue, build customer loyalty, and grow.That's why our approach to e-commerce is fundamentally different. We specialize in architecting robust, scalable e-commerce platforms that are engineered from the ground up for one purpose: conversion. We're not just slapping products onto a template and calling it a day. We're thinking strategically about user flow, about upsell opportunities, about cart abandonment and how to reduce it, about payment gateway integration that feels seamless and secure.Over the years, we've built e-commerce solutions for retailers across British Columbia and beyond. Some are just launching their first online store, excited to finally reach customers beyond their physical location. Others are established players who've outgrown their existing platform and need something more powerful, more flexible, and more capable of handling serious traffic and transaction volume.In every case, our focus remains the same: build a platform that turns casual browsing into loyal, repeat customer relationships. We leverage best-in-class technologies to ensure your store loads fast, ranks well, and provides an experience that keeps people coming back. Because in the world of e-commerce, loyalty isn't just nice to have—it's everything.Want to see how we've helped other Vancouver retailers build thriving online businesses?

Building something that functions perfectly is table stakes. Your competitors have functioning websites too. What sets the businesses that truly thrive apart from the ones that just survive is strategy.We are, at our core, strategists and storytellers. We believe that every line of code, every pixel, every piece of content should serve a larger purpose. That purpose is connecting you with the right people at the right moment with the right message.This philosophy comes to life most clearly in how we approach digital advertising. Over the years, we've planned and executed precision-targeted digital advertising campaigns across every major channel: paid social, search engine marketing, programmatic networks, and more. But we don't believe in spraying and praying. We don't believe in setting up a campaign and forgetting about it. We believe in meticulous, data-driven optimization.Every campaign we run is built around clear, measurable key performance indicators. We know exactly what success looks like because we define it before we spend a single dollar. From there, it's a process of continuous refinement. We test creative. We test audiences. We test offers. We test landing pages. We leave no stone unturned in our pursuit of a superior return on investment for our clients.And because we're also the ones who built your website, we have a unique advantage: we understand exactly how your digital ecosystem fits together. Your ads don't just send people to some generic page. They send people to a destination we designed specifically to convert traffic from those campaigns. The result is a seamless experience that feels cohesive, not cobbled together.Building Organic Authority That LastsPaid media delivers immediate results. That's its superpower. But if you're only investing in paid traffic, you're essentially renting your audience. The moment you stop paying, the traffic stops coming. That's why sustainable growth requires a parallel investment in organic visibility.This is where search engine optimization comes in. And not the superficial, keyword-stuffing SEO of years past. We're talking about sophisticated, holistic SEO that stands up to Google's ever-evolving algorithms and actually delivers lasting value.Our approach to SEO is comprehensive. It starts with technical excellence: clean code, fast load times, proper schema markup, mobile optimization, and all the other behind-the-scenes factors that search engines use to evaluate your site. But technical SEO alone won't make you rank. You also need content that matters.That's why we place such a strong emphasis on high-value content creation. We help our clients develop content strategies that answer real questions their customers are asking. We create resources that people actually want to read, share, and link to. We position our clients as authorities in their space—not through gimmicks, but through genuinely useful information delivered consistently over time.And then there's the third pillar of modern SEO: authoritative link earning. In Google's eyes, a link from a respected website is like a vote of confidence. The more high-quality votes you have, the more Google trusts you. We help our clients earn those votes through legitimate, white-hat strategies that build real relationships and real authority.When you combine technical excellence, high-value content, and authoritative links, something powerful happens. Your brand doesn't just appear in search results—it dominates them. You show up for the terms that matter most to your business, and you maintain that visibility over the long haul, regardless of algorithm updates or competitive pressure.Interested in learning more about how we can help your business get found online?

Imagine having a marketing engine with two complementary cylinders firing in perfect sync.On one side, you've got paid media. It's immediate. It's scalable. It puts you in front of high-intent customers right now, today. When we launch a paid campaign for a client, we often see results within hours. It's incredibly satisfying, and it provides the kind of short-term revenue boost that can be game-changing for a growing business.On the other side, you've got organic SEO. It takes longer to build. It requires patience and consistency. But once it gains momentum, it becomes a self-sustaining asset that delivers traffic and leads month after month without ongoing ad spend.Most agencies specialize in one or the other. They're either paid media experts who treat SEO as an afterthought, or they're SEO purists who look down on paid traffic as somehow less authentic. We think that's nonsense. Your business needs both. You need the immediacy of paid media to drive growth today, and you need the long-term authority of organic search to secure growth for years to come.That dual-strategy methodology is at the core of everything we do. We help our clients strike the right balance based on their unique goals, budget, and timeline. For some, that means aggressive paid investment while organic authority builds in the background. For others, it means a more measured approach that prioritizes sustainable organic growth supplemented by strategic paid campaigns. There's no one-size-fits-all formula, and anyone who claims there is isn't being honest with you.Let's Start a Real ConversationWe could fill pages and pages with case studies, technical specifications, and impressive-sounding jargon. And we're happy to do that if it's helpful. But at the end of the day, what we really want is a conversation.A real conversation. The kind where we actually listen more than we talk. The kind where we ask questions that might make you think differently about your own business. The kind that leaves both sides feeling energized and excited about what's possible.When you're ready, we invite you to reach out. Through a detailed, no-pressure consultation, we'll take the time to truly understand your vision. Not just the surface-level goals, but the deeper ambitions. The challenges that keep you up at night. The opportunities you sense are out there but haven't been able to capture.We'll immerse ourselves in your world. We'll ask about your customers, your competition, your team, your culture. We'll dig into what's working and what's not. And then, together, we'll start breaking down your business objectives into a clear, actionable plan.That plan will be uniquely yours. It won't be a repackaged version of something we did for someone else. It will be a bespoke strategy that leverages the latest technological advancements and proven marketing practices, all tailored to your specific situation and goals.Our aim is simple: to become an integral part of your team. Not just a vendor you call when something breaks, but a trusted partner who's genuinely invested in your success. We want to empower you not just to navigate the digital world, but to thrive in it. To stop feeling like technology is something that happens to your business, and start feeling like it's something you control and leverage to achieve your ambitions.Ready to Redefine What's Possible for Your Business?Look, we know there are a lot of agencies out there. A lot of options. A lot of promises. It can be overwhelming trying to figure out who to trust with something as important as your digital presence.But here's what we believe sets us apart: we genuinely care. We've been doing this for over a decade because we love it. We love the creativity. We love the problem-solving. And most of all, we love the relationships we've built along the way.We've had the privilege of watching small startups grow into industry leaders. We've helped family businesses navigate the transition to digital without losing their soul. We've launched products that have changed how people work, shop, and live. And through it all, we've stayed true to the same principles that guided us from day one: do good work, treat people right, and never stop learning.If that resonates with you, we'd love to talk.
