About

Websites with armour.

A crab's shell protects it, and its sideways walk gets it around obstacles others walk into. That is how we approach every project.

Our story

Seven years of websites that stay online, for clients in three countries.

Webcrab Digital has been building websites for over 7 years from Ratnapura, with 50+ client projects delivered, mainly for businesses in three countries: Sri Lanka, the UK and Australia. We work with WordPress, Shopify and Ghost, and we build custom systems when a business outgrows off-the-shelf tools: online stores, B2B portals and multi-location ERPs.

The founder studied cyber security and does penetration testing alongside development. That is why every site we ship starts hardened, with SSL, backups and monitoring already in place, instead of as an upgrade sold later.

We keep the team small so you always know who is working on your project, and we explain what we are doing in plain language.

The shell

Security is the hard shell. Hardening, backups and monitoring are built in, so your site keeps its shape under pressure.

The sideways walk

A crab reaches the same place from a different angle. We question the brief first, then choose the approach that fits your business, not the one we sell most.

The team

Who you will work with.

A small team, led by the person who builds and secures your site.

Values

How we work.

01

Numbers over adjectives

If we claim a site is fast, we show the Lighthouse score. If we claim it is safe, we show the checklist.

02

Secure by default

Hardening, SSL, backups and monitoring are part of every project, not upgrades.

03

Plain language

You should understand every line of your quote and every message we send.

04

You own it

Your domain, code and content are yours. If you leave, we hand everything over.
