WordPress Development in Canada

WordPress Development in Canada

Custom WordPress websites for Canadian businesses: hand-built themes, the plugins you actually need, and a site your own team can update without calling anyone.

Quick Answer: WordPress Development for a Canadian Business

WordPress powers a large share of the business websites in Canada, which is exactly why a custom build stands out: faster pages, no bloated page builder, and a theme written for your content.

You are in the right place if:

  • Your WordPress site is slow or keeps breaking
  • You want a custom theme instead of a purchased one
  • You need a plugin or integration nobody has built
  • You are moving from Wix, Squarespace or Shopify to WordPress
  • You need WooCommerce set up properly
  • You want a developer on call for your WordPress site
A regular business website starts at $2,000 CAD; stores and custom features are quoted per project. Book a free consultation and we will tell you honestly what your business needs.

WordPress Development for Canadian Businesses

We provide wordpress development for businesses across Canada, from the GTA, where our office is, to every province and territory. The work is done by our own developers in Mississauga, Ontario, quoted in Canadian dollars, and delivered to you wherever you are.

Canadian clients get a team in their own country and currency: a fixed, itemized quote with no exchange rate to work out, a developer contact on Eastern Time, and the domain, hosting and code registered in your company's name from day one. Clients in the Greater Toronto Area can meet us in person; everyone else works with us over video calls, email and a shared project board.

Every project is handled in-house by our wordpress development team, and you can see recent work in our portfolio. Reviews are on our Google Business Profile.

What You Get

WordPress Development built for how Canadian customers find and choose a business.

Stores, subscriptions, shipping rules and payment setup for Canadian businesses selling online.

Migrations

Moving sites to WordPress from other platforms, with URLs redirected so rankings survive the move.

Caching, image optimization and clean code so the site stays fast as it grows.

What a Website Costs in Canada

Regular business websites start at $2,000 CAD. Anything bigger is quoted per project, because every website is different.

Most business websites

Regular Website

From $2,000 CAD

A business website that tells people what you do, where you are and how to reach you. Built on WordPress so your team can update it, with a fixed quote before work starts.

  • Your core pages: home, services, about, contact
  • Contact forms and click-to-call
  • SEO basics and Google Business Profile setup
  • Training so you can update it yourself
  • Domain, hosting and files in your name

Custom Project

Quoted per project

Every website is different, so anything beyond a regular site is scoped with you first and quoted as a fixed, itemized price before any work begins.

  • Online stores on Shopify or WooCommerce
  • Large or multi-location sites
  • Booking, quote carts and member areas
  • Integrations with your CRM, email or inventory
  • Custom web apps in React or Next.js
  • Moving a large existing site without losing rankings

Best for: Retailers, growing companies and anything with custom functionality

Prices are in Canadian dollars. Every project starts with a free consultation and a fixed, itemized quote, and if the scope changes later we quote the change first. More in how much a website costs.

How a Project Runs

The same five steps for every client, whether you are across the street from our office or across the country.

1

Discovery call

A free call over video or phone about your business, your customers and what the project needs to do. No pitch deck, just questions.

2

Scope and quote

A written scope and a fixed, itemized quote. You know the price and the schedule before any work begins.

3

Design and build

Designs reviewed in your browser, then the build on a private staging site you can test from anywhere.

4

Launch and training

A launch checklist, training for your team and everything registered in your company's name.

5

Ongoing care

Optional maintenance plans from $149 a month, or hand the site to your own team with full documentation.

WordPress Development in Canada FAQs

Questions Canadian business owners ask before starting.

Ask Us Anything
Do you use page builders like Elementor or Divi?
Only when a client asks for one. We prefer the block editor with custom blocks, because it is faster and does not lock you into a builder. If you already have an Elementor or Divi site, we can work with it or move you off it.
Can you fix my existing WordPress site instead of rebuilding it?
Often, yes. Speed problems, broken plugins, hacked sites and theme errors are usually fixable without a rebuild. We look at the site first and tell you which option makes sense for a Canadian business of your size.
Do you offer WordPress maintenance in Canada?
Yes. Plans from $149 a month cover tested updates, daily backups, security monitoring and fixes, and the same developers who built the site look after it.
Do you work with businesses anywhere in Canada?
Yes. We are based in Mississauga, Ontario and work with clients in every province and territory. Discovery calls, design reviews, testing and training all happen over video and screen sharing, so the project runs the same way in Halifax, Winnipeg or Victoria as it does in the GTA.
Are your prices in Canadian dollars?
Yes. Every quote is in Canadian dollars, fixed and itemized, so there is no exchange rate to work out and no surprise on the invoice. You can pay by card or bank transfer.
Can we meet in person?
In the Greater Toronto Area, yes: our office is in Mississauga and we meet GTA clients in person when it helps. Everywhere else in Canada the project runs over video calls and email, which is how most of our clients prefer to work anyway.
How do time zones work for clients outside Ontario?
Our office is on Eastern Time. That lines up with Ontario and Quebec, is an hour behind the Atlantic provinces, and is one to three hours ahead of the Prairies and British Columbia, which still leaves most of the working day for calls. Meetings are scheduled around your time zone.
