I'm Drew Palframan. I moved to Ucluelet from Vancouver in 2013 and worked at the Ucluelet co-op from 2014 to 2023. After that I studied early childhood education and behaviour intervention, and now I build websites.
I work with businesses on Vancouver Island, across BC and well outside it. I take on a limited number at a time, so when your busy season changes what you need, you talk to the person who built your site instead of filing a ticket.
Four stages, the same for every build. The long version is on the blog.
Discover
A kickoff call to understand your business and scope what your site needs to do, with a realistic timeline before any work begins.
Build
Designed and hand-coded around your business, with you reviewing progress and signing off before launch.
Launch
Deployed with SSL, DNS and uptime monitoring set up and kept running as one hosting plan. The domain renews separately, at the registrar's price.
Grow
As your business changes, the same person who built the site changes it with you. Bigger systems are scoped separately.
My own photos, from around the Island. The towns I build for and every photo have pages of their own.
Live client sites. Every case study says what the business needed and what I built.
A custom site for a Nanaimo car audio and 12V install shop — built around posted pricing, real install photography, and inquiries that arrive ready to quote.
15 enquiries through the contact form, 10 to 29 September 2026
A custom web application for a regional childcare center — built around program discovery, fee transparency, and enrollment.
13 waitlist enquiries through the site, 21 August to 26 September 2026
A brochure site for a veteran-owned, three-generation family firewood business — built around the kiln-drying process that sets their wood apart, and real local trust.
