Emicode builds custom blogs and content platforms for Canadian and US busineses from $3,000 CAD, fixed quote after discovery. Your editorial team gets a clean, distraction-free writing experience, SEO built into the workflow, and fast-loading pages built to rank well. We're a web development studio based in Winnipeg, and senior engineers build a platform your team will actually enjoy using.

Who It's For

  • You publish often enough that standart CMS is no longer enough and you need a real editorial workflow.
  • You've got multiple contributors who need drafts, reviews, and scheduling — not one shared login.
  • You depend on organic search and want SEO handled at the platform level, not bolted on after the fact.
  • You care about article pages that load fast and hold a reader to the end.
  • You publish more than plain posts — guides, case studies, resource libraries — and need content types built for each.

What's Included

  • A writing and editing tools built around how your team actually works, not a generic CMS dashboard.
  • Editorial workflow — drafts, review, scheduling, and roles for multiple contributors.
  • SEO handled where you write — structured data, clean URLs, meta controls, and semantic markup applied at the point of writing.
  • Fast-loading article pages, built for quick loads and strong Core Web Vitals, so readers and search crawlers aren't left waiting.
  • Flexible content types for the formats you publish beyond standard posts — guides, case studies, resources.
  • A design system so every new article and page stays consistent as the library grows.

How the Process Works

  1. Discovery (about 1 week). We map your content types, editorial workflow, and SEO needs, then hand you a written brief and a fixed quote.
  2. Design (1–2 weeks). We design the reading experience and the editing interface, and you sign off before the build starts.
  3. Build (3–6 weeks). Platform build, editorial tooling, and SEO foundation — with a staging link from day one, so you can watch it come together.
  4. Launch (2–4 days). QA, content migration if you need it, DNS, SSL, analytics, and monitoring.
  5. Warranty (30 days). Any bug we ship, we fix for free.

What Drives the Price

Content platform development starts from $3,000 CAD. Where you land depends on how many content types you need, how complex the editorial workflow gets, whether existing content has to be migrated, which integrations you want (newsletter, analytics, on-site search), and how much custom design is involved.

FAQ

Can you migrate our existing blog or articles?
Yes. Content migration from an existing blog or CMS can be included — we'll scope it during discovery based on how much content there is and what shape it's in.

Is SEO really built in, or added later?
Built in. Structured data, clean URLs, meta controls, and semantic markup are part of the platform, so good SEO happens at the point of writing rather than being retrofitted.

Will our editorial team find it easy to use?
That's the goal. The writing and editing experience is designed around how your team actually works, with a short handover so contributors are comfortable from day one.
