Websites that make the case for you.
I design and build sites for businesses that need to look as credible as the work they do — with search foundations built in from day one, not bolted on after.

One person.
Both sides of the stack.
I'm Shahnawaz Khan. Before web design, I spent over a decade in network and logistics consulting — the unglamorous work of making sure infrastructure actually holds up.
That background is why opensandbox.ca sites are built to load fast, rank cleanly, and not fall over the week after launch. Based in Ontario, working with businesses across Canada.

Before we get started
Common questions.
Will my site be ready for search engines?+
Search foundations are part of every package: clean structure, descriptive titles, mobile layouts and Google/Bing submission. Rankings also depend on content and competition — no position is guaranteed.
Do I need to provide the copy?+
Yes — you provide the words, I provide the design, structure and search foundations around them. Copywriting isn't part of a standard package but can be discussed separately.
Do you work outside Ottawa?+
Yes — based in Ontario, working with businesses across Canada. Reviews and planning happen remotely.
