Connect with your audience through a tailored website design.

Meet Christopher Oxner, founder of bake, a seasoned website development and graphic design consultant with over two decades of diverse design and technical expertise. Our focus? Empowering businesses to connect with their customers through impactful branding elements, including customized websites, business cards, and other visual identity materials. Our comprehensive services range from responsive website design and development, high performance website hosting, to strategic marketing and visual identity materials, and search engine optimization (SEO).

We love fostering web self-sufficiency

We’re passionate about leveraging content management systems (CMS), to empower our clients to effortlessly take full control of their website content. 99% of our client projects are built on a Drupal CMS or WordPress framework. We have been working with Drupal and Wordpress for over a decade, both in an ongoing maintenance role, and the continual processes of redesign, and brand and content evolution.

Why Drupal?

Drupal 10, backed by a vast open-source community, offers unparalleled customization and scalability, delivering custom experiences with robust SEO, security, and multi-language features.

We've been partnering with Bake Web Development for several years now, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Bake’s responsiveness, collaborative nature, and ability to deliver on promises have consistently impressed us. Not only does Bake keep our website updated and optimized for SEO, but their thoughtful recommendations have significantly contributed to our online success. Their clear communication style makes navigating the process effortless. We wholeheartedly recommend Bake Web Development for anyone seeking creative, reliable and effective web services.

I have worked with Chris for a number of years and consider him my go-to person for all things web related! He has built me beautiful websites from the ground up (Canada`s Smartest IT and Omnivex) and also helped me reskin websites to look beautiful without touching the plumbing underneath. Chris has a keen eye for visual design and his work for me has extended beyond web design to include other areas such as designing corporate brochures, visual content for software demos, HTML emails, and online ads. Chris is one of the best designers I have worked with during my many years in marketing.

Our company was a startup with a small customer base had our website designed and built by Oxner. They were able to interpret our goals, ideas, and principals and translate them into a well designed, practical and professional website. The quality, skill and speed that our website was developed was impressive, as Christopher was quickly able to capture our image and identity. Christopher makes valuable suggestions and even more important to us, provides excellent support service. We are often impressed with the fact that our requested changes and updates to our website, are usually done within the hour – sometimes even before we get off the phone. Our website has increased business and we have been able to reach a market that we were previously unable to through other advertising and marketing modes.
