Hiring Questions
Cost: a small business site that a Toronto agency quotes at CAD 12K-25K, we deliver at CAD 4K-9K with the same WordPress core, same plugins, same security hardening. For ongoing maintenance, our retainer is CAD 600-1,500/month vs Canadian agencies at CAD 2K-5K.
Yes — our care plans include weekly core/plugin/theme updates, Wordfence + iThemes Security hardening, daily off-site backups (BlogVault or UpdraftPlus to Canadian S3), uptime monitoring, and malware removal if you ever get hit.
Yes — we use WPML or Polylang for multilingual. We have shipped 12+ EN/FR sites for Quebec-based businesses, including translation workflow for content teams (no dev required to publish new languages).
We routinely hit 90+ Lighthouse mobile. Stack: lightweight theme (custom or GeneratePress), object cache (Redis on Cloudways/Kinsta), full-page cache (LiteSpeed or WP Rocket), image optimization (Shortpixel/Cloudflare Polish), critical CSS, font preloading. Typical site: 4.2s -> 1.1s LCP.
Honest answer: for sites under 10 pages with frequent content edits by non-tech users, Elementor Pro is fine. For brands, agencies, or sites with 50+ pages, custom themes are 3-5x faster, more secure, and cheaper to maintain over 3 years. We build both.
