Custom WordPress website design and development
Showcase websites, online stores and custom management platforms, built for the reality of Quebec SMBs and tailored to the needs of your industry.
A pragmatic, sector-based approach
We don't deliver generic WordPress. Before we talk design or features, we start from the reality of your sector — a early childhood center doesn't communicate like a construction contractor, and a nonprofit doesn't face the same constraints as a garage or a professional services firm. That understanding of your field guides every decision in the project.
In concrete terms, that shapes the content architecture, the priority features, the type of hosting and the level of Law 25 compliance you need. The result is a website that matches the way you work — one your team can manage on its own — rather than a template you have to work around.
The types of projects we build
From showcase websites to custom management platforms, six families of WordPress projects for Quebec SMBs.
WordPress website
A custom corporate website for a well-established SMB. Flexible architecture, independent content management with Gutenberg, optional Polylang multilingual setup, Law 25 compliance included.
Showcase website and one-pager
For a product launch, a campaign or a compact company presentation. Short, fast and built to convert.
WooCommerce online store
Custom e-commerce: product catalogue, payment processing (Stripe, PayPal, Square), order management, subscriptions and Quebec tax compliance.
Custom web application
A management tool developed specifically for your internal processes. Skips rigid SaaS products when your operation calls for a custom fit.
Management platform and client portal
A secure portal for your clients or employees: authentication, document management, file tracking, audit compliance.
Online booking and event calendar
Appointment scheduling, event calendars, online registration and payment for professional services, garages and clinics.
Our process, transparent from start to finish
Understanding and scoping
We start from your goals and your reality, not from a template. We audit your existing site if you have one, then clearly define the scope, timeline and budget.
Design and development
A design that fits your brand, custom WordPress development, and security and performance built in from day one rather than bolted on afterwards.
Launch and autonomy
A migration with nothing broken, training so you can manage your site on your own, and an optional maintenance plan if you'd rather leave the ongoing management to us.
Who this service is designed for
We build websites for well-established SMBs with 5 to over 100 employees, nonprofits and public organizations, everywhere in Quebec from our Drummondville office. Typical projects range from $3,000 to $50,000, depending on scale and features. If your needs are simpler, we'll say so honestly.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a custom WordPress website cost?
Our projects generally range from $3,000 to $50,000 depending on scope and features. A showcase site doesn't have the same budget as a WooCommerce store or a management platform. We give you an estimate once we've scoped the need.
How long does building a website take?
Depending on scope, from a few weeks for a showcase site to several months for a custom platform. We give you a realistic timeline right at the scoping stage.
Will I be able to manage my site myself?
Yes. We build on WordPress and Gutenberg, and we train your team to manage content independently. A maintenance plan remains available if you'd rather leave it to us.
Do you build bilingual sites?
Yes, with Polylang, which we chose for its performance: clean URL structure per language, multilingual SEO and redirection based on the visitor's language. Bilingualism is built in from the design stage.
Do you work with agencies as a subcontractor?
Yes. We handle the WordPress technical layer for creative and marketing agencies that prefer to entrust development to a specialized team.
