Easy to manage
Clear fields designed for your content, with no unnecessary options.

Websites
A fast, accessible website, with an admin designed for the people who will keep it up to date. Most often on Craft CMS or Statamic, but we choose the tool to fit the project, not the other way around.
A website you can update without calling the developer
A good-looking website is nice. A website your team dares to update is better. Too often, the admin is a tangle of options where you’re afraid of breaking everything, and the site ends up ageing for lack of care.
We build the admin around your content: an event has its event fields, a job posting has its own. You fill in clear boxes, and the site takes care of the layout.
What we look after on every site
- speed, on a phone as well as a computer;
- accessibility, so everyone can read you;
- search engine optimization, right from the page structure;
- Quebec’s Law 25, with proper cookie consent.
Most often on Craft CMS or Statamic, because they lend themselves to well-structured content. An existing site to rebuild without losing your content? See also Migration and synchronization.
What it changes
A living website, not a frozen showcase
Fast
Lightweight pages that load quickly, even on a cellular network.
Secure and compliant
Updates kept current, cookies under control, Law 25 compliance.
Easy to find
Careful structure and metadata, page by page.
On every screen
One website, adapted to every screen
Your website displays on a phone, a tablet or a large monitor, and adapts to each one. The menu folds up, columns stack, images resize: the same website, rearranged for the screen.
It isn’t a separate mobile version with its own pages to keep up to date. There is only one website:
- one set of content: what you publish appears everywhere at once;
- one update: nothing to copy from one version to another;
- one address: shared links work on every device;
- better search rankings: Google looks at the mobile version of your site first.
We check every template on real phones and computers before going live.
How it works
From plan to launch
-
Step 1
Content
We take stock of what you have to say, and who will keep it up to date.
-
Step 2
Structure
Content types, pages and navigation, validated with you.
-
Step 3
Build
The design comes to life, with an online version to try as the work progresses.
-
Step 4
Launch
Content transfer, redirects, training for your team, then going live.
Lighter
Microsites and showcase sites
Not every project needs a content management system. A campaign, an event, a launch or a small business that simply wants to be found: a lightweight site, delivered quickly, often does the job better.
- showcase site: a few pages to present your organization, your services and your contact details;
- companion site: a site that accompanies your main website to support one of your services or an event;
- microsite: a separate site for a campaign or a product, with its own address;
- landing page: a single page, designed for one specific action: sign up, buy, get in touch.
Often built in static HTML, with Nuxt or with SvelteKit, but always with the tool that fits the need, these sites are very fast, cheap to host and have almost nothing to watch security-wise. If they need to grow, we connect them to a content management system. That’s what we did for the Town of Malartic microsites.
“A good website is, first of all, one you want to keep up to date.”

Questions
What we’re often asked
Why not WordPress?
WordPress has its strengths, but it often takes a stack of plugins to get a well-structured site, and each one needs watching. Craft CMS and Statamic offer that structure from the start, with a clearer admin. We discuss it at length in Why I’m moving away from WordPress.
Will we be able to update it ourselves?
That’s the whole point. The admin is built for your content, and we train your team before launch.
What about our current website?
We bring over your content and redirect the old addresses to the new ones, so you lose neither visitors nor search rankings.
Who looks after the site after launch?
We do, if you wish: hosting, security updates, backups and improvements, at the pace of your needs.
