Featured Build
Actisafe WooCommerce refactor

Actisafe: 400-SKU industrial catalog

We refactored a collapsing WooCommerce install into sub-half-second infrastructure with zero monthly platform fees.

  • 716 SKUs, 55 parents, bulk-editable via Google Sheets/CSV.
  • Gated pricing: login + staff approval required to view/buy.
  • Custom filters/search: fast, deep-linkable, no plugins.
  • 20+ Elementor widgets: marketers edit safely, no dev.

Your marketing team edits pages without breaking the layout or calling us for $150 fixes.

Operators Who Put Skin in the Game

Client Reviews and Proof

Every project is finished and none are abandoned. The same infrastructure works for a five hundred dollar painter and a sixty five million dollar manufacturer.

Minetek, Mining and Industrial Engineering

“Nolan and his team have vast web dev knowledge, communication is impeccable. He’s our go-to for any project, with the ability to solve solutions others couldn't.”, Minetek

We resolved repeated outages and rebuilt the WooCommerce platform. The site now supports over sixty five million dollars in annual revenue and runs with stable performance.

Cigar Emperor / Robb Report, Magentos Limited

“Great service, fast and reliable. Highly recommended! Fair pricing too.”, Magentos Limited

We redesigned ecommerce and editorial integrations for high visibility publishers and luxury brands. The work improved uptime and search visibility during traffic spikes.

Tankah Divers, Dive Shop and Tourism

“Funk Productions redid our dive shop website. We loved the changes, and the website is showing up higher in searches, creating more business. Highly recommend!”, Tankah Divers

We migrated and restored the site after domain failure. Search improvements produced measurable booking lift within weeks.

Keck Custom Tailor, Bespoke Clothing

“Working with FunkPd was a game-changer. They truly understood my vision for Keck Custom Tailor and brought it to life.”, Keck Custom Tailor

We built a performance focused site that highlights photography and typography. The new site increased qualified leads and improved search performance.

AKG Group / Punica Granatum, Software Development

“Nolan at FunkPd is more than a web developer; he’s a digital magician. His websites marry style with intuitive functionality.”, AKG Group

We delivered dual brand sites under a single architecture. The result improved user flow and reduced page load time.

Badlands Promotions Inc., Loud Awards and MLMA

“Nolan has gone above and beyond to help me with both of my business websites! Highly recommend!”, Badlands Promotions

We built an event platform with a custom voting engine that handled large vote spikes without downtime. We provide ongoing updates and maintenance for both sites.

Trade Grade Painting, Residential and Commercial Painting

“Looks pretty good.”, Trade Grade Painting

We launched a one page GOFP site in seventy two hours that the owner can edit from a phone or truck. The site ranks locally and needs no ongoing maintenance.

Actisafe Industrial, Manufacturing and Safety Systems

“The new site is much faster and easier to manage.”, Actisafe

We refactored a four hundred product WooCommerce catalog into a lean and filterable system. Page loads are under half a second and admin workflows are straightforward.

Security note: every build follows the same hardening process. We remove unnecessary plugins, patch quickly, restrict admin access, and use Cloudflare protection. This process prevents incidents and keeps uptime consistent.

You do not need a deck. You need a site that works while you are on the tools.

Proof the Infrastructure Works

Built for $500 painters and $65M manufacturers. Same process, different scale.

The infrastructure holds up whether you're selling 10 jobs a year or shipping containers globally. We tune it to what you actually need; infrastructure-first; no traffic guarantees.

Trade Grade Painting

Winnipeg painter needed a site that didn't look like an idiot. Live in 72 hours, ranks locally, and he can edit it from his truck.

Actisafe Industrial

400-SKU industrial catalog with gated pricing. We rebuilt it for sub-0.5s loads without plugin chaos or vendor lock.

Minetek Global

$65M+ in annual revenue runs through the WooCommerce platform we rebuilt and maintained. It stays stable.

8+ Years, Zero Hacks

Across 25+ production builds we've avoided breaches by sticking to principle-of-least-plugin stacks (using only essential plugins to minimize risks), timely core/plugin updates, Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF)/Content Delivery Network (CDN) shields, and minimal attack surface (WAF blocks attacks; CDN speeds up delivery). Process, not promises.

Security note: we harden by pruning plugins, patching quickly, limiting admin access, and fronting traffic through Cloudflare. That discipline keeps incidents off the board.

You don't need a deck. You need a site that works while you're on the tools.

What the funk are we selling?

The difference between a $100, $10K, and $100K website

Same CMS on the invoice. Very different outcomes once you need to grow, change, or recover.

$100-$500 launch pad

Market rate: A theme swap. They paste your logo, change the phone number, delete extra pages, and email you a bloated .zip file. No hosting, no support, no infra knowledge. Just a skin.

FunkPd: A lean, one-page HTML file built from scratch. We deploy it on Cloudflare so it’s live and stable. Edits aren’t drag-and-drop, but it’s enough to stay online for years without trouble.

$10K professional build

Infrastructure done right. Caching, schema, and analytics are wired on day one. Five to ten pages, ready for WooCommerce. Your team ships new pages and the site stays fast. Ideal for steady campaigns without constant developer tickets.

$100K+ operator platform

Engineered for teams and scale. Modular components, custom data wiring, and test loops. Marketing launches pages and tweaks flows without a dev. That velocity saves six figures in tickets, delays, and lost conversions.

You've been burned before. This is different.

You've paid for audits that went nowhere and hired devs who disappeared. You've been locked out of your own systems. That cycle ends here.

Ownership from Day One

Registrar, DNS, code, docs. We hand you every credential at launch. No hostage situations. If we're lying, you have everything you need to leave.

Built to Be Handed Off

The system is documented and built without weird dependencies. Hire us, hire someone else, or run it yourself. The choice is yours because the asset is yours.

No Retainer Hostages

Most agencies optimize for recurring revenue. We optimize for you to fire us after launch. If you need more work, you book it. If not, we get out of your way.

Proof you can audit

The infrastructure performs.

These numbers prove the systems we build stay live, stay fast, and keep working.

Why we publish metrics: Agencies lie about traffic. We publish verifiable metrics instead.

Async process. No calendar Tetris.

If it can be an email, it stays an email. You stay on the tools while we ship.

One async intake

We capture scope, priorities, and decision-maker. Everything after lives in writing so you stay in flow.

Sprints shipped to staging

Focused build windows, Google Docs guides & checklists, and timestamps. You review when you’re ready.

Revision, proof, launch

We tighten final copy, verify forms and tracking, ship with a checklist, and hand you the keys.

How we size work

Scope is driven by page count, template variety, dynamic data (Custom Post Types/taxonomies), ecommerce/checkout, imports, integrations, authentication/members, and multilingual needs. Custom Post Types (CPT) and taxonomies are WordPress features for organizing custom content like products or events.

Your Website is a Utility. We Run the Service.

You run projects from rough-in to final inspection, so you expect clear communication, fair pricing, and a final product that just works. I spent years on job sites, putting in the 11+ hour days. I know you don't have time for a website that needs constant babysitting or unreliable subcontractors.

We build it right, the first time. We translate the precision required in electrical or plumbing work into clean, efficient code. No nickel-and-diming, no change orders unless the scope changes. It's the blueprint approach, applied to your digital asset.

On-demand support (no monthly fee)

You've already paid for the site. We scope tasks piece-by-piece, bill only when you use it, and stay async. Need help? You get it. Otherwise we stay out of the way.

  • Book a task → we estimate → you approve → we ship. Every change logs before/after proof.
  • Performance checks: Core Web Vitals, Time to First Byte (TTFB), queries, payload reports with each run (TTFB measures server response time).
  • Security, content, and UI tweaks bundled when you need them; nothing on autopay.
