Step 1
Discovery & Structure
We start by understanding your business, goals, and preferences. Then we map out page structure, user flow, and content sections so everything makes sense before design begins.
Montreal buyers decide fast. A visitor lands on your site, checks it on their phone between the metro and their next meeting, and moves on to a competitor if the page is slow or confusing. That first impression happens long before anyone picks up the phone or walks into your shop.
A lot of Montreal business websites were built years ago and never touched since. They looked fine on a desktop screen back then, but they weren’t built to load fast on mobile, guide someone toward a call or a form, or hold up against what buyers now expect from a business site in a competitive market like this one.
A site built the right way does more than sit online looking presentable. It actively pulls new clients in. Every page either moves a visitor closer to reaching out or gives them a reason to click away, and good ecommerce website design makes sure it’s the first outcome far more often than the second.
Of local Montreal searches start on a mobile phone. A site that isn't built mobile-first is effectively invisible to most of the city.
Of buyers are more likely to reach out to a business whose website lays out clear pricing or service scope. Most business sites in Montreal do neither.
Average increase in contact form submissions after we restructure service pages around how Montreal buyers actually evaluate a business before contacting one.
These figures come from our own client work combined with published research. Your results depend on your industry, your current site, and how much of the work we can put in place quickly. We’ll give you a straight answer before we start anything.
SEO, OBO, and managed website hosting also have dedicated pages for Montreal when those programs are live, so technical health, content, funnel work, and infrastructure stay aligned.
Everything starts with how your customers find you and what they need to see before they’ll reach out. That drives every decision after it, from how your pages are organized to where your contact options sit to how the site behaves the moment someone checks it on their phone.
Once that’s mapped out, we move into design. Your homepage comes first so you can see the direction before we build the rest of the site around it. Once you sign off, we design every remaining page and confirm everything holds together across desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Development runs on WordPress, which means your team can update copy, add pages, and handle routine edits without calling a developer for every small change. We also handle the technical setup behind the scenes, including forms, integrations, and performance optimization, so your site is fast and ready for traffic from day one.
Before anything goes live, we test it. Forms, links, mobile layouts, load speed, and cross-browser behavior all get checked. When your site launches, it’s finished, not still a work in progress.
Once you’re live, we train you on how to manage the site yourself and stay available for questions after that. You should be able to run your own website with confidence, not stay dependent on someone else every time something needs changing.
From first brief to live site — every project follows the same structured process so nothing gets missed and you always know where things stand.
We start by understanding your business, goals, and preferences. Then we map out page structure, user flow, and content sections so everything makes sense before design begins.
We design your homepage first — colors, fonts, layout — and get your approval before moving to the remaining pages. Mobile adaptation is built in from the start, not added at the end.
Approved designs get built into a fully functional site — CMS setup, integrations, forms, performance optimization, and accessibility baked in throughout.
Cross-browser testing, mobile checks, speed benchmarks, form validation, and a full review pass before anything goes live.
Site goes live on a structured schedule. Your team gets trained on the CMS and handed documentation so you can manage content confidently from day one.
Montreal buyers are used to comparing several businesses before they ever make contact. They check your site on a phone, form an opinion fast, and move on if it doesn’t hold up. A website built for a smaller, less competitive market usually falls short of what buyers here expect.
We design with that in mind. Clean layouts that load quickly even on a spotty connection. Service pages that spell out exactly what you offer and who it’s for. Contact options that are easy to find and simple to use no matter what device someone’s on, backed by an accessibility audit so nobody gets left out.
Montreal is also a bilingual market where French and English both matter, and where a business’s credibility can hinge on getting that right. If your customers expect to read your site in French, English, or both, we build the site to reflect that instead of bolting on a translation as an afterthought, with local SEO built in from the start.
We do not just talk — we ship real websites that real people use. Here is a look at what we have built for businesses like yours.
Yes. We build your site around your actual service area, not just your office address. If you work across the North Shore, South Shore, or Laval, we make sure your pages and contact details speak to buyers wherever you actually do business, not just to people near your storefront.
Share your current site and tell us what is not working. We will come back with a straight assessment and tell you what a redesign or new build would involve.
