I'm Adam Chipman, a freelance web developer based in Newfoundland and Labrador, serving small businesses across Conception Bay North, the Avalon Peninsula, and British Columbia. I help turn visitors into customers with thoughtful UX, search visibility, and a genuine human touch — not another cookie-cutter template.
What I do
Every click should feel obvious. I map the journey your customers take and remove the friction — clear navigation, fast pages, and layouts that guide people toward getting in touch or buying.
Being great isn't enough if nobody finds you. I optimize for traditional search engines and for the new generation of AI answer engines, so your business shows up where customers are looking.
You get me — not a call center. I take time to understand your business, write copy that sounds like you, and build something you're proud to share. Real conversations, honest advice.
How we work together
You're running a business, not a web project. My job is to make this the easy part — so you always know what's happening and why.
A relaxed conversation about your business, your customers, and what a better website would actually do for you.
I map the experience and design pages around real goals — getting calls, bookings, or sales — then share it for your feedback.
I develop on the right platform for you, wire up SEO and analytics, and make sure everything is fast on every device.
Your site goes live and I stick around — tweaking, improving, and answering questions as your business changes.
Selected work
A few of the sites I've designed and built — each one shaped around the owner's goals, their customers, and the platform that fits them best.
ShopifyFashion boutique
An online boutique for a Carbonear clothing shop, with collections for men, women, jewelry, and local NL makers. Built so customers can browse new inventory and shop from home as easily as they do in store.
Wix StudioCraft brewery
A brewery and taproom site for a converted saltbox house in Bay de Verde — beers, merch, food pairings, and a reason to visit. Designed to tell the story and get people in the door.
Next.jsComing soonChamber of commerce
A launch site for the Trinity-Conception Bay North chamber, giving local businesses a clear place to learn about the new organization. Built as a simple, professional first impression while membership grows.
Wix StudioLegal
A clear, approachable site for a Carbonear law office covering real estate, family, injury, and estates. Makes it easy for clients to understand the practice and get in touch.
Wix StudioCommunity
A check-in platform for Newfoundland dog parks, so owners can see who's there before they go. Built as a simple first phase, with room to add more features.
Next.js/SquareComing soonHealth & wellness

Testimonials
Real reviews from my Google Business Profile — the people I've had the pleasure of building for.
I’ve been working with Adam on a new website and he’s been awesome to deal with. He’s always quick to get back to me, very easy to work with, and has been really good at taking my ideas and turning them into something that actually works and looks great as there has been a lot of back and forth. He’s also made lots of suggestions that I wouldn’t have thought of myself. The whole process has been easy and I’m very excited with how the website is coming along. Definitely recommend Adam!
Adam was easy to deal with and totally knowledgeable. He was very patient with me as I was slow in the understanding! I would recommend him to anyone. Fabulous job!
Chipman’s Web design is absolutely phenomenal. Adam, the owner is super creative, attentive and walks you through and explains everything. He listens, which is the most important part of building your website.
Chipmans' Web Design exceeded my expectations! Adam is professional, responsive, and truly understood my vision. The website he created is not only attractive to customers but also user-friendly. I highly recommend Chipman's Web Design to anyone looking for top-notch web design.
Absolutely Amazing Web Designer. I'm usually too busy to deal with web/email issues, (and as a result likely not the best client), but Adam got my office email and website running perfectly in no time. 5 Stars!
The right tool for the job
I don't push one platform on everyone. Depending on your budget, goals, and how you want to manage things day-to-day, I'll recommend and build on whichever of these makes the most sense.
Keep your site and its data on Canadian servers — helpful for privacy expectations, data residency, and serving local customers quickly.
