Independent web studio

Web development in Montreal

WordPress sites, Shopify stores and web applications that are fast, secure and accessible. For businesses, non-profits and agencies in Quebec, across Canada and around the world.

Why choose Digilia

Digilia is a studio by choice: no sales team, no extra packages bundled around the site. Here is what this model changes for you.

No middleman

No project manager, no sales department. You explain your needs once, to the person who does the work.

Quality included in the price

Performance, accessibility aiming for WCAG 2.2 AA, security, Quebec’s Law 25 and a site that is easy for Google to read are part of every quote. None of it is sold as an option.

A site you own

You edit your content yourself, and when needed we do it with you or for you. The domain name, hosting and accounts are in your name.

Costs known in advance

A detailed quote before the project, a monthly plan for maintenance, a block of hours for changes. Small projects are welcome.

Frequently asked questions

The short answers. The details are on the service pages and on the Studio page.

To the developer. Nobody rephrases your request between you and the code: that is the principle of the studio, and the reason for its size.

No. WordPress is the most requested, but we also build Shopify stores, HubSpot sites and Laravel applications, and we connect your tools to each other through APIs. The choice is made during scoping, based on your project.

It depends on the number of templates, the languages, the integrations and the state of the content. Each project is estimated at $125 an hour, then sold at a fixed price in a detailed quote that states what is included, and what is not.

Yes. Your pages are built from sections that you edit in the admin interface: text, images, new pages. When needed, we do it with you or for you.

Maintenance is a monthly plan, from $125 to $375 depending on the site: tested updates, backups and monitoring. Changes are billed from a block of hours, on named tasks.

Yes, as a tool, to move faster on repetitive work. The architecture, the technical choices and the code review remain the developer’s, and everything goes through the same quality assurance before launch. The time saved shows on the quote.
