Fern Web Design Services

Operating from Port Coquitlam since 1997, Fern Web Design Services works with businesses across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, as well as clients elsewhere in British Columbia, Canada, and the US. The agency is a small team that focuses on companies without in-house technical staff, taking on the role of long-term technical partner rather than a one-off vendor — a relationship illustrated by a client (Arthritis Consumer Experts) whose network of more than a dozen sites, spanning WordPress, ColdFusion, and PHP, has been hosted, managed, and maintained by the agency since 2003. Core services include WordPress development, web design, logo and graphic design, SEO, pay-per-click, and social media marketing, alongside secure hosting with managed updates, security monitoring, malware and virus protection, backups, and uptime support. A stated specialism is AI-driven SEO: structuring sites for AI Overviews and AI-generated search results through clear page organization, content that answers specific user questions, and improved load times, in addition to conventional ranking work. Much of the work described involves rebuilding outdated websites into faster, better-structured, AI-SEO-ready platforms, with ongoing DNS management and troubleshooting for technical issues that arise after launch, aimed at improving visibility and generating qualified leads for clients.
