ABOUT REGINALD STUDIO
I'm Aaron. I build websites for London, Ontario small businesses.
Reginald Studio is a one-person shop based in London, Ontario. I work with local trades, service businesses, and small operators across Southwestern Ontario who need a website that actually brings in customers — not a brochure that sits on the internet collecting dust.
WHY LONDON
Local-First, On Purpose.
I've lived and worked in London, Ontario for years. The businesses I want to build for are the ones I see on Dundas Street, Wharncliffe, Hyde Park, and Wonderland — the plumbers, electricians, auto body shops, IT consultants, salons, fitness studios, and home-service operators that keep this city running.
Those owners don't need a “boutique consultancy” or a creative agency from Toronto charging $30k for a brand refresh. They need a website that loads fast on a customer's phone, ranks for “[their trade] London Ontario”, and turns visitors into phone calls or quote requests. That's the work I focus on.
When I can drive to your shop, take real photos, sit down with you for an hour, and understand how your business actually runs — the result is a website that sounds like you and works for the way customers actually find you. That's why I stay local.
HOW I'M DIFFERENT
One Person. Direct Access. Custom Code.
You work directly with me
No junior designer. No account manager. No "we'll loop in the developer". You talk to me, I do the work, you get the result. If something goes wrong, you call the person who built it.
Full-stack background, focused on websites
Five years across Flutter, WPF, React, and Next.js means I understand what's happening under the hood of every site I ship. I'm not a designer who outsources the technical work — I write the code myself, which is why your site loads fast and stays maintainable.
Transparent pricing, fixed quotes
Three published tiers ($1,500 / $2,500 / $4,500) so you know exactly what you're paying before we start. No hourly surprises. No scope creep. If the scope changes mid-project, we discuss it before the meter runs.
Built to be found, not just look nice
Every site I build includes on-page SEO, Google Business Profile setup, schema markup, and Google Search Console verification — so your site is actually findable for the queries your customers type in London.
MY BACKGROUND
Five years of full-stack engineering behind every site.
I trained as a Computer Programming & Analysis graduate from Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. Since then I've shipped projects across the full stack — mobile apps in Flutter, internal tools in WPF, and a steady stream of web work in React and Next.js. That background is why I lead with web design now: it's the highest-leverage thing I can do for a London small business in a fixed-price project, and the technical experience underneath means I do it better than someone who only knows the design layer.
I build every site in Next.js on Vercel — not because they're trendy, but because the math works for small businesses. Hosting runs $0–$20 a month versus the $30–$60 a WordPress + managed-hosting + security-plugin stack typically costs. Server-rendered pages mean Google indexes everything reliably. Edge caching means a customer in Strathroy gets the same page-load speed as a customer in Downtown London. And the code is portable: if you ever want to move to another developer, you walk away with the source code, no platform lock-in.
The tradeoff: you get a single-developer studio instead of an agency. That means fewer simultaneous projects, a real waiting list at times, and direct accountability on everything I ship. Most of my clients see that as the feature, not the bug.
