About Surrey
Located 40 minutes southeast of Vancouver and directly north of the U.S. border, Surrey occupies an area of 317 square-kilometres, making it two-and-a-half times bigger than Vancouver proper. Surrey is made up of six distinct neighbourhoods, whereby six town centres (Fleetwood, Whalley/City Centre, Guildford, Newton, Cloverdale, and South Surrey) sprawl across a landmass big enough to hold Vancouver, Richmond and Burnaby combined.
Surrey is currently positioned as BC’s second largest city with a population of 517,887 (2016 Census) and is expected to surpass Vancouver in population to become the largest city in BC by 2030. It’s a growing and significantly multicultural diverse city that welcomes roughly 1,000 new residents monthly in communities where residents speak over 100 different languages.
Surrey has an abundance of parks including over 2428 hectares (6,000 acres) of green space and natural and coastal landscapes for countless recreational opportunities like hiking trails and year-round fishing in Green Timbers Urban Forest, kayaking along the Nicomekl River and paddle boarding at Crescent Beach. Surrey also plays host to numerous provincial and international sporting events like Canada Cup at Softball City, and local and provincial events (including arts & culture) at 10-hectare Holland Park.
Holland Park anchors Surrey Centre, a walkable, transit-oriented downtown area for business, cultural, and entertainment activity. It serves Surrey City Hall, Civic Plaza, SFU’s Surrey Campus, and the Surrey Central Library, and is expected to be the destination for three new light-rail lines from Guildford, Newton, and Langley, BC’s first Light Rail Transit system, phase 1, scheduled for completion in 2022. As a transit-oriented place, there’s a focus on high-density residential, commercial and institutional development in the City Centre.
According to the Real Estate Investment Network, pro-business government initiatives have helped earn Surrey the mantle of being the best place in BC to invest. King George Highway from SFU Surrey to Surrey Memorial Hospital is home to a high-tech health cluster known as Innovation Boulevard, where the city, universities and business are building clusters in health technology, clean tech and advanced manufacturing.
Sustained regional growth, combined with a relatively large supply of developable land indicates that Surrey will continue to shape economic development initiatives and provide substantial business opportunities.

What our clients are saying
Kevin and his team are fantastic. We’ve been working with them for some time now. They’ve built out some awesome landing pages for us that have been able to generate some solid conversions via our SEO. Big thanks to Kevin and his team for making digital marketing, something we know very little about it, a much easier process than I had initially imagined it would be :)
After 15+ years of dealing with a national firm, we moved to Kevin at Yardstick Services for our website redesign and digital marketing campaign. What a refreshing change…we received professional guidance and expertise from their team and they made the migration process seamless. After 3 years, we continue to receive excellent and timely service. They are a pleasure to deal with and I highly recommend them.
Our team has had an amazing experience working with Yardstick on our new website build. Very organized, professional and personable. Highly recommend and cannot say enough good things about this crew! Looking forward to continuing to work with Yardstick. THANK YOU for helping to bring us into the 21st Century!
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Yardstick Services for the past two years. They have used their expertise to optimize our website, implement SEO strategies to drive traffic to our website and to improve our social media reach. The results have been exceptional. Their creative approach, flexibility and commitment to data-driven ideas have significantly enhanced our online presence. I have appreciated Kevin and the entire team at Yardstick for being able to deliver high quality work that has produced amazing results for us, all within the constraints of our budget.
Our company, International Yacht Training Worldwide, has worked with Yardstick for over a decade and are more than satisfied with the design of our website, collaboration when designing, and, of course, their support over the years. Owner, Kevin McLeod, and all of the Yardstick team are there to offer assistance when the need arises. Yardstick has created a second website for a new division of our company, Global Yacht Club, which is in an infancy stage. Their design and support teams are amazing and I highly recommend their services!
Our organization has worked with Yardstick for many years and have found their services to be attentive and thorough. They provide excellent advice on security and web development. We are extremely happy with Kevin and Brendon and their expertise.
I have worked with Yardstick for several years now on multiple website development projects, SEO, and web security, and cannot recommend them enough. Through the development of each site, Kevin has provided expert guidance and cost-conscious alternatives. Everyone on their team has been very knowledgeable and shown their commitment to meeting our needs, expectations, and timelines.
The website has totally revolutionized our organization. It’s a total game changer. We’ve gone from 4,000 people a month viewing our site to 24,000 people a month. We’re overwhelmed with the number of inquiries and requests we’re now getting.
Thank you for your unwavering support, leadership and patience in prep for this timely launch. On behalf of the JDS team, we are so appreciative of, not only Caitlin’s work (over the long weekend to ensure our deadlines were met), but your dependable and honest guidance.
We have been collaborating with Yardstick for a few years now for website development, SEO strategy and web security. Kevin and the Yardstick team are great – they provide professionalism and expertise but with a human touch that make it all the more enjoyable to work with them.
Also, for those of us who are metrics-driven, Yardstick’s regular updates on our firm’s online performance are fantastic!
