Belov Digital is a senior WordPress agency serving Ottawa companies since 2012. We build custom WordPress websites, web applications, and WooCommerce stores for Ottawa’s government and crown corporations, tech (Shopify HQ, Nokia), telecom, defense, and biotech sectors. 2,600+ projects shipped, in-house team, transparent $80-120/hour pricing.
WordPress development for Ottawa businesses
Ottawa is Canada’s capital, the headquarters of Shopify, a dense cluster of telecom and defense contractors, and a growing tech corridor around Kanata North. WordPress shows up at the marketing and content layer for crown corporations, Kanata tech firms, federal contractor sites, and the bilingual marketing of organizations operating across English and French Canada.
We’ve built WordPress sites for Ottawa-area tech firms, federal-adjacent organizations, and bilingual EN/FR brand sites. Sites built to accommodate Canadian accessibility standards (AODA), bilingual content workflows, and the procurement processes that come with federal-adjacent work.

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