🌱 Our Founders' Story

Built by two students with a simple idea.

TheWebYard started with Kovidh and Gia, two high school students who wanted to turn their interest in technology and business into something real.

We noticed that many small businesses have great products and services, but don't always have a professional website. Either because websites can be expensive, complicated, or simply feel out of reach.

So we decided to change that.

We created TheWebYard to help small businesses get online with modern, professional and affordable websites, without the complicated process or unnecessary costs.

We're still students, but that doesn't mean we're not serious about what we build. Every website is an opportunity for us to learn, improve and help another business grow.

TheWebYard is more than just a website business. It's something we built from the ground up, while still in school, with the goal of helping other businesses build their place online.
