A website you understand, and can run yourself

Practical, plain-language websites, guides and training for small businesses, community groups and non-profits in Niagara and beyond. Hire me to build it, learn to manage it yourself, or do a bit of both.

You like to know how things work

You run your own business, so you want to understand what you’re paying for, keep control of what’s yours, and handle the simple jobs yourself when it makes sense. You don’t want to be locked into tools you can’t leave, or talked down to when you ask a question.

That’s how I like to work. After nearly three decades designing and running complex systems in corporate IT, I help small local businesses get a site that works, and I teach you enough to look after it with confidence.

Latest from the library

Hi, I’m Bradley

I’m a Niagara-based web designer and trainer. I spent nearly three decades in corporate IT before starting Ascendant Bits Creative Digital to help small businesses get the technology side right without the jargon or the hard sell.

What clients say

When our website experienced issues and became increasingly difficult to manage internally, Bradley came highly recommended and quickly proved why. He was responsive, empathetic, and transparent throughout the process, clearly explaining the issues and solutions. We appreciated his affordable approach and felt confident we were in good hands throughout.

Katherine “Kat” Dodge, St. Catharines Downtown Association

Bradley makes tech easy. His knowledge includes web development, setting up an online shop, audio-visual set-ups for online podcasts & live streaming, photography, setting up your tech and so much more.

Kathy Upper, Spiritual Niagara

His warm personality and high level of expertise altered this relatively stressful project to a very enjoyable one. He is a multi-faceted and highly talented digital designer and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Nancy Kelly, The Lotus and The Bear

How it works

  1. Talk. A free call to hear what your business needs and where you’d like to do things yourself.
  2. Plan. You’ll know what’s involved before you commit.
  3. Build, train, or both. I handle what you’d rather not, and teach you the rest.
