Dot832 is a WordPress specialist. When clients need services beyond our scope, we connect them to trusted Canadian partners who share our standards.
Why We Work With Partners
Dot832 Digital is deliberately focused. We build, support, and host WordPress websites — that’s our specialty, and we’re serious about it. But Canadian businesses often need services that extend beyond the website itself: SEO to drive organic traffic, social media to build audiences, content to keep the site alive, or paid advertising to accelerate growth.
Rather than stretch our team thin trying to be a full-service agency, we’ve built relationships with a small group of Canadian specialists who do these things well. When a Dot832 client needs more than we offer, we make introductions — or, when clients prefer, we manage the relationship on their behalf.
How It Works
Our partner network is opt-in for Dot832 clients. There are three typical paths:
Introduction
The simplest arrangement. We introduce you to the right partner, share the relevant context about your site and your business, and then step back. You contract directly with the partner. No middleman, no markup, no hidden coordination costs. This works well when you prefer a direct relationship with the service provider.
Managed Partnership
We manage the partner relationship on your behalf — scoping the work, coordinating delivery, reviewing deliverables, and handling the monthly cadence. You interact mainly with Dot832. We charge a coordination fee that reflects the time involved. This works well for busy business owners who don’t want to manage yet another vendor.
Integrated Project
For larger engagements — typically custom web projects where SEO, content, and social are integrated into the build from the start — we coordinate with partners as a single project team, delivered under a unified Dot832 engagement. Pricing and scope are defined upfront as part of the overall project.
Services Available Through Partners
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Beyond the on-page SEO foundation we include with every Dot832 website build, our SEO partners provide:
- Keyword research tailored to your market and competitors
- Technical SEO audits and remediation
- Content strategy aligned with search intent
- Link building and authority development
- Local SEO and Google Business Profile optimization

Social Media Management
For Canadian businesses that want a consistent, professional social media presence without building an in-house team, our partners offer:

- Content planning, scheduling, and publishing
- Community management and audience engagement
- Paid social campaigns where appropriate

Content & Copywriting
A great website still needs great words. For clients who need more than what comes with a Starter Kit, our partners provide:
- Website copywriting and rewrites
- Blog content and article writing
- Case studies and client stories
- Email newsletters and marketing copy
Paid Digital Advertising
For businesses ready to accelerate growth through paid channels, partners handle:
- Google Ads strategy, setup, and management
- Meta (Facebook and Instagram) advertising
- LinkedIn Ads for B2B campaigns
- Conversion tracking and ROI reporting
How We Choose Our Partners
We’re careful about who we introduce clients to. Our partners are selected against criteria that match the standards we hold ourselves to:
- Canadian-based, with an understanding of the Canadian market
- Transparent pricing in Canadian dollars with no hidden fees
- Clear, honest reporting — no vanity metrics or marketing theatre
- Specialization in their area rather than a generalist “we do everything” pitch
- Willingness to operate under our standards for communication and delivery
- A track record with Canadian small and medium-sized businesses
If a partner ever stops meeting these standards, we stop recommending them. Our reputation depends on theirs.
What Partners Don’t Mean
A few things worth being clear about:
- Dot832 remains a WordPress specialist. Partner services are optional extensions for clients who want them — not services we sell on our own.
- We don’t take referral fees that compromise our recommendation. If a partner ever pays us to send them clients, we disclose it. Our first loyalty is to the client’s outcome.
- We don’t resell partner services under the Dot832 brand in a way that obscures who’s actually doing the work. If a partner is delivering, the client knows.
- We don’t gate access to good partners. Clients who want to bring their own SEO provider or social media agency to a Dot832 project are free to do so — we’ll coordinate with them.
Ready to Extend Beyond the Website?
If you’re a current Dot832 client, let us know what you need and we’ll make the right introductions. If you’re new to Dot832, let’s start with a conversation about your website — the partner network is available once you’re part of our ecosystem.
