Studio Platform — Websites & Class Management
For studios & clubsYour own branded site with class schedules, online registration, memberships, and automated billing — built for fitness, yoga, dance, martial arts, and gymnastics studios and clubs.

Keep Your Freedom
No 12–36-month lock-in contracts. Your website, your domain, and your member data are yours, with full admin access — take them with you at any time.
We Set It Up, You Run It
We handle the migration, the branding, and the setup, then train you hands-on to run your own schedule, content, and members.
Everything in One Place
Class schedules, online registration, waitlist and capacity management, memberships, and automated billing — plus an ECStores merch store when you want one. Every studio install includes a Continuity care plan, so security, backups, and updates are handled for you.
Custom Web Design That Turns Visitors Into Customers
Responsive, mobile-first websites tailored to your brand — three project tiers, so you pay for what you need and own the result outright.
The Launchpad — A Professional Presence, Fast
Home, About, and Contact pages that look right on every screen, a working contact form, basic SEO setup, and analytics connected — plus hands-on training so you can update your own content from day one.
The Professional — For Established Businesses
Up to ten custom pages, content you manage yourself, custom forms and lead capture, a user login system, on-page SEO, and a blog — a site that works as a sales tool, not a brochure.
The Enterprise — A Custom Digital Ecosystem
A custom web application: booking or member management, CRM and API integrations, advanced reporting, and a multi-phase delivery plan. Built in custom PHP with no plugin bloat — nothing to license, nothing to break on the next update.
Website Refresh — Already Have a Site?
We modernize what's there: content and layout updates, mobile fixes, speed and performance tuning, and security hardening — scoped to what your site actually needs.
Every project includes a full handover of admin credentials, Education-First training, and a 30-day post-launch support period. You own the site, the domain, and the data.
Start a Web Design Project View Project TiersContinuity — Managed Hosting & Care
Hosting with proactive security, scheduled backups, updates, and monitoring. We handle the tech; you run your business.
Proactive Security Monitoring
Automated malware scans and firewall monitoring — and our Clean-Site guarantee: if a site under a current Continuity plan is compromised, we restore it at no charge, as defined in our Terms of Service.
Backups You Never Have to Think About
Scheduled off-site backups — daily on the Standard and Professional plans — with a tested restore path, so a bad update or a slip of the mouse is a rollback, not a rebuild.
Updates & Performance
Regular software updates, database cleanup, image compression, and caching tuning, so your site stays fast and keeps ranking well — without you ever logging in to a server.
Quarterly Digital Health Reports
Every 90 days, a plain-English report on performance, security status, and what we recommend for the next quarter — so you always know where your site stands.
Studio Platform installs include Continuity — it is part of the package, not an add-on. All plans are month-to-month.
View Continuity PlansECStores — Managed Online Stores
NewSell merch, gear, or products from your own branded store at yourbrand.ecstores.ca — fully set up, hosted, and managed by EastCoast WebCraft. Add it to your studio site or run it standalone.
Zero Technical Knowledge Required
We provision your store, walk you through connecting your own Stripe account from your client portal (a few minutes), and hand you the keys. You log in to a clean dashboard, add your products, and start selling — no developers needed, ever.
Direct Stripe Payments — Into Your Own Account
ECStores connects directly to your own Stripe account. Payments land in your bank on your normal Stripe payout schedule. You pay a flat monthly subscription and no platform fee from EastCoast WebCraft on storefront sales; Stripe's processing fees apply — all stated up front, no hidden fees.
Products, Orders & Shipping in One Place
Manage your product catalog — with categories and photos — alongside orders, shipping methods, and coupons, from a single dashboard. Accessible from your EastCoast WebCraft client portal in one click.
Branding Studio Included
Upload your logo, set your brand colours, choose your font, and customize your storefront. Your store looks like your brand — not a generic e-commerce template — from day one.
Need More Than a Storefront? Custom E-Commerce
Inventory synchronization with your point-of-sale, custom checkout flows, and donation systems for nonprofits with recurring gifts and donor acknowledgements — scoped and built as an Enterprise web design project.
SEO & Local Visibility
Get found in "near me" searches across Nova Scotia and Atlantic Canada — by the people already looking for what you do.
Technical SEO
Site speed, mobile-friendliness, crawl error fixes, structured data markup, and Core Web Vitals optimization — the foundation every strong ranking is built on.
Local SEO & Google Business Profile
We optimize for the searches your clients actually type — "yoga studio Halifax", "kids gymnastics Dartmouth", "dog groomer Bedford" — plus full Google Business Profile management.
On-Page & Content Optimization
Keyword research, meta tags, internal linking, and locally relevant content — blog posts and case studies your audience actually reads — to build your site's relevance and authority over time.
Ongoing Monitoring & Reporting
Monthly ranking reports, keyword tracking, and Google Business Profile insights, so you can see what is working — included in the Professional Continuity plan or available on its own.
Strategy & Consulting
A clear path from where you are to where you want to be — from one local partner who speaks business, not just code.
Free Digital Health Audit
A no-cost review of your current site — security, speed, and mobile-readiness — delivered as a plain "Red / Yellow / Green" report with immediate, actionable fixes. Deeper quick-check and comprehensive audits are available when you want the full picture.
Your Digital Roadmap
Before a project starts, we map how your website, memberships, store, and marketing fit your goals for the year ahead — so you build what you will actually use, in the order that pays off first.
CRM & API Integrations
Connect your website to the tools you already use — HubSpot or Zoho CRM, Mailchimp, QuickBooks, or your booking system — so a form submission or a new member lands where it belongs, with no retyping.
Education-First Onboarding
Every project ends with a hands-on walkthrough of your site, your analytics, and your admin tools — so you can manage your own content and never be dependent on an agency again.
Maintenance & Security
Keep the site you already have healthy, fast, and safe — whether or not we built it.
Security Hardening
A security review of your existing site, then the fixes: patching, HTTPS and security headers, firewall and login protection, and the removal of anything that should not be there.
Migration & Rescue
Moving off a platform that locks you in, or recovering a site that has been hacked or abandoned — we take it from where it is to a home you own.
On-Demand Support
Content updates, fixes, and small changes when you need them — included up to your plan's monthly hours on Continuity, or billed by the hour with no retainer.
Ongoing Care, Not One-Off Repairs
The most reliable way to stay secure is a Continuity plan: monitoring, backups, updates, and the Clean-Site guarantee, month to month — no long-term contract.
