Belov Digital is a senior WordPress agency serving Montreal companies since 2012. We build custom WordPress websites, web applications, and WooCommerce stores for Montreal’s AI and gaming (Mila, Ubisoft), aerospace (Bombardier), pharma, fashion, and fintech sectors. 2,600+ projects shipped, in-house team, transparent $80-120/hour pricing.
WordPress development for Montreal businesses
Montreal is Canada’s AI research hub (Mila, Element AI legacy), a global gaming capital (Ubisoft, Warner Bros Games), an aerospace center (Bombardier, Pratt & Whitney Canada), and a creative-industries powerhouse. The local market is French-first — meaning the marketing playbook, the content workflows, and the accessibility considerations are different from Toronto or Vancouver.
We’ve built bilingual EN/FR WordPress sites for Montreal AI startups, gaming studios, fashion brands, and aerospace suppliers. WPML or Polylang depending on scale, proper hreflang setup for international audiences, and content workflows that support both French-first and English-first publishing.
WordPress services for Montreal companies
Custom WordPress development
Custom themes built on Underscores or block-based foundations, custom Gutenberg blocks for marketing teams, headless WordPress paired with Next.js or Astro, and bespoke plugins for industry-specific workflows. Production WordPress that scales with your roadmap.
WordPress web design
Brand-led web design for Montreal firms — visual identity translated into a working WordPress site, not just a Figma deliverable. Conversion-focused product pages, accessibility-first patterns, and component libraries that survive years of content updates without breaking.

How we work with Montreal clients
Two engagement models cover most Montreal clients:
- Project-based work — new builds, redesigns, migrations, custom plugin development. Fixed-fee, scoped from a discovery call, milestones tied to deliverables. Most Montreal projects run 6-14 weeks from kickoff to launch.
- Monthly retainers — ongoing dev capacity, maintenance, and improvements after launch. Most long-term Montreal clients run on retainers between $1,500 and $8,000/month depending on roadmap pace.
