About

One person, focused on doing it right.

Northpage builds websites and web apps for small businesses and founders. It's run by John Michael Lagumbay, based in Mississauga, Ontario.

What Northpage does

We build fast, modern websites that help customers find you, call you and visit you, and custom web apps that take work off your plate.

We keep it simple: a clear plan, one clear price for website packages, plain words instead of jargon, and checks at every step before anything goes live.

We work remotely with clients across Canada and beyond, mostly by email.

Who builds it

Hi, I'm John

I didn't start out writing code. For 15 years at SYKES in the Philippines, I worked as a process engineer, finding where things went wrong and fixing them for good. Then I moved to California, first as a quality analyst at DigitalStorm and then as a process engineering supervisor at Tesla, where I coached a team of technicians on safety, quality and targets.

All those years taught me one thing: people get frustrated when something is harder than it needs to be. Now I fix that on the web. I retrained as a full-stack developer, with a certificate from Uplift Code Camp and a Computer Programming diploma from Sheridan College.

I started Northpage to build websites and web apps for small businesses and founders, with the same care for quality I brought to every job before.

How we work

  • Plain words

    We explain what you're getting and why, without the tech talk.

  • Checks at every step

    Every page is checked on phones and computers before it goes live.

  • Clear prices

    Website packages have one price, paid once. Apps get a quote before we start.

  • Yours to keep

    Your web address is in your name, and your site is yours once it's paid in full.
