WordPress & CMS Development Company in Edmonton

Q: How much does a WordPress site cost in Edmonton?

As planning guidance, a focused WordPress marketing site may fall around CAD $5,000–$15,000, while a custom theme with more content types, integrations, or migration work may range from CAD $15,000–$40,000. WooCommerce or a headless build can cost more depending on catalogue, checkout, and integration scope. These are typical market estimates, not a quote; we scope a fixed proposal after reviewing requirements.

Q: How long does a WordPress project take?

A focused marketing site often takes about four to eight weeks after content and design decisions are ready. Custom integrations, larger content migrations, WooCommerce catalogues, or headless WordPress can extend the schedule. We agree on milestones during discovery and plan reviews on Mountain Time with your Edmonton team.

Q: Can you build a WooCommerce store with GST for Alberta?

Yes. We configure WooCommerce product and checkout flows for the store’s catalogue, shipping, and Canadian payment needs, including GST rules for Alberta. Tax registration and accounting treatment depend on your business, so we confirm the intended setup with your tax professional before launch and test representative orders.

Q: Should we use headless WordPress or classic WordPress?

Classic WordPress is often a good fit when editors want a familiar admin, Gutenberg blocks, and established plugins. Headless WordPress can suit sites that need a separate front end, more control over Core Web Vitals, or content shared across experiences, but it adds build and preview workflow complexity. We recommend based on publishing needs, integrations, and ongoing support capacity.

Q: What is included in WordPress maintenance and care plans?

Care plans can include WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates; backups; security and uptime checks; and periodic speed and Core Web Vitals reviews. We agree on update windows, backup retention, and support scope for each site. Canadian hosting options and privacy-sensitive form or analytics data flows can also be reviewed against PIPEDA and Alberta PIPA needs.

Q: Can you migrate our site from Wix or Squarespace to WordPress?

Yes. We inventory pages, media, metadata, forms, and redirects, then move the content into a WordPress structure your team can maintain. The migration can include a custom theme, local SEO setup, and redirects that preserve useful URLs. We review the migrated pages with your team before launch and account for any platform-specific features that need a replacement.
