About me

I'm Myles Beardsmore, a professional web developer based in Christchurch, New Zealand.

As a New Zealand-based web developer, I specialize in creating high-performance, SEO-friendly websites and custom applications that help businesses grow. My expertise in modern web technologies and headless architecture allows me to deliver scalable, maintainable solutions that drive results.

I'm passionate about helping businesses succeed online through custom web development solutions. Whether you need an ecommerce store, marketing website, or custom application, I can help you achieve your business goals with modern, efficient technology.

What I offer

Developing modern online experiences after hours

Helping startups, small businesses and entrepreneurs build online stores, marketing websites and more!

Ecommerce Development

Expert Shopify development services in Christchurch, creating high-converting online stores. Specializing in custom themes, bespoke apps, and headless ecommerce solutions using Shopify Hydrogen.

Marketing Websites

Professional website development, creating SEO-optimized, secure, and easy-to-maintain websites using modern headless CMS platforms like Storyblok.

Custom Web Applications

Bespoke web application development, building custom solutions that streamline your business processes and improve efficiency.

Process & Pricing

Taking a pragmatic approach to ensure consistency and efficiency.

A flat project fee after agreeing on a detailed scope and timeline is charged with engagements typically costing between $5,000 to $30,000. Timelines vary based on availability and complexity.

Discovery meeting

A call or coffee to familiarise myself with your mission, challenges and objectives. This phase also provides an opportunity for us to get acquainted and set expectations for process and collaboration. A detailed scope of work and timeline will be provided after this meeting.

An upfront payment of 50% is required before work commences. This is to ensure that both parties are committed to the project.

Development

This is when the magic happens. Your project is transformed into a performant, modern and accessible digital experience. If a CMS is required work will be done to ensure content is easily editable using one of my preferred headless CMS like Storyblok.

Concurrently, we put the website through a rigorous QA process both internally and with your team to ensure that the site is ready.

Launch

It's launch day. Prior to launch I'll work with you to finalise all content in the CMS. This includes a training session to ensure you're comfortable with the platform. Once approved the project will be deployed to production!

Once the confetti has cleared the final progress payment is sent.
