Quick answer

Sites are $297 a month with no upfront build cost, maintenance included, on a 12-month term.

BuildSites conçoit des sites web bilingues pour les entreprises de Montréal, de Laval et de la Rive-Sud. Un site vitrine bilingue coûte généralement entre 3 000 $ et 7 500 $, est en ligne en une à deux semaines et respecte les exigences de la Charte de la langue française.
MontréalFrom 1001 Rue Lucien-L'Allier, Ville-Marie we build bilingual sites for businesses in the Plateau, Griffintown, NDG, Verdun, Rosemont and Ville-Marie. Bilingual by default, French first where your customers expect it. Content is written for how people in Montréal search, in both languages.
Does a Montréal business need a bilingual website?
Yes. A Montréal website must work in French first and English fully. Customers expect to switch languages without anything breaking.
We design the layout for both languages at once, so nothing breaks when a headline is longer in French. Language switching, search indexing and French-language requirements are set up correctly from the start.
How much does a bilingual website cost in Montréal?
$297 a month, no upfront build cost, on a 12-month term. That covers design, build, hosting, SSL, security updates, nightly backups, uptime monitoring and unlimited edits.
The 12-month term brings your first-year total to $3,564 plus GST and QST in Quebec.
After 12 months the plan goes month to month, with 30 days' notice to cancel. Remaining months are due on early cancellation. The domain is about $20 a year and stays in your name. Your content and accounts are yours from day one. The site itself is yours once the 12-month term is complete.
How long does a bilingual site take to launch?
Bilingual French and English sites usually launch in one to two weeks. Single-language sites can be live in 48 hours once we have your logo and services list.
The clock pauses while we wait on content from you, so the timeline is in your hands. You leave the first call with a launch date.
What does the website plan include each month?
Every plan includes up to 8 pages designed and written for your business, hosting, SSL, uptime monitoring every minute, security updates within 24 hours, nightly backups kept for 30 days, and edits that are usually live the same day.
- Custom design built around your brand and your clientèle
- Pages built for phones first, tested on every screen size before launch
- French as the default language, with proper language tags for both versions
- Instant replies to every inquiry in the language the customer wrote in, if you add automation
Online stores, customer portals and custom software are quoted separately after a call.
Can you add automation to a Montréal website?
Yes. Automation is $297 a month on its own, or $445 a month when bundled with the website plan, saving $149 a month versus taking both plans separately.
Automation handles replies to every form, missed call and direct message in under a minute, 24/7, in English or French. It also covers booking reminders, invoice follow-up and review requests after every job. Text messaging is billed by the provider, typically $20 to $40 a month extra.
