Web Consultant & Holistic Webmaster
WordPress and AI consulting for nonprofits and small teams
I am aggressively, almost suspiciously available.
The person your last tech guy said he’d be. Web consultant. Linux sysadmin. Holistic Webmaster.

About
27 years on the web, and I still answer my own email.
I’m Jer Chapman, a web consultant in Deux-Montagnes, Quebec, building on the web since the days of Gopher.
Servers, WordPress, email that lands in spam, AI that should actually help: I bring enterprise-grade tech to nonprofits and small teams, minus the enterprise runaround. I don’t refer you out four times. I fix it.
No ticket system. I reply fast, and most clients become friends. Off the clock, I’m probably hiking, lifting or roasting coffee.
Services
What I do
I handle the full technical stack — not just the parts that are easy to explain.
WordPress & Web Development
Custom themes, plugins, WooCommerce, performance optimization, and multilingual setups. I’ve been building WordPress sites since near the beginning — I know where every body is buried.
API Design & Integration
I’ve designed, built, and integrated APIs for mobile apps, ecommerce platforms, payment systems, and third-party services. If your business needs systems talking to each other, this is where I shine.
Server & Hosting Infrastructure
I run my own multi-server hosting infrastructure on Linux with DirectAdmin — not a reseller account. The client sites I host get a CSF firewall, PHP-FPM tuning, offsite backups, and security incident response. Full-time Linux user since 2000.
Email Automation & CRM
ActiveCampaign builds, complex automation sequences, Shopify integrations, and list management. I work on the technical side of marketing so your campaigns actually reach people.
AI Integration & Automation
Custom API integrations with Claude, GPT and others. RAG pipelines, chatbots, automation workflows. AI that does something real for your business, not just demos.
Copy, Editing & Content
An English Literature grad who codes. I write my own copy, edit client content, and proofread — clearly, correctly, and in your voice. French or English. Most developers can’t say that.
AI & Automation
Pairing artificial intelligence
with actual intelligence.
AI is changing what’s possible for small businesses and organizations. I help you figure out what’s actually worth building — and then build it properly.
Everyone is adding AI to their business right now. The hard part isn’t the technology — it’s knowing what’s actually worth building and what’s just noise. I help you figure that out, then build it right.
I’ve built AI-powered tools from scratch — including a managed chatbot platform with multi-provider routing, RAG pipelines, bilingual support, and a demo engine that generates personalized site previews automatically. Real implementations, not demos.
Who I work with
Built for people with real needs
I work across industries, but I have deep roots in two sectors where I can offer something most consultants can’t.
Non-Profit Organizations
I’ve worked with many non-profit organizations including hemophilia.ca, Literacy Unlimited, and the West Island Community Resource Centre. I understand how non-profits operate — the budget constraints, the board oversight, the need for reliability without the corporate price tag. My family has deep roots in the non-profit world. You’ll never feel like a small fish here.
Fitness Professionals & Studios
I’ve worked with coaches, trainers, and fitness brands on everything from booking systems and membership platforms to custom apps and AI-powered client communication. I understand your business model, I know your industry, and I’ve built tools specifically for it.
Businesses with serious technical needs
Sometimes you’ve outgrown what a generalist can handle. I’ve built production systems for MTY Group — one of Canada’s largest restaurant companies — that are still running today, years after launch. I’ve been the primary technical person for Macros Inc, a major fitness platform, for years, keeping their systems running reliably as they’ve grown. If you need something built right the first time, let’s talk.
What clients say
Don’t take my word for it
"You've been ALL ACEs to work with!"
"I've worked with Jer for years on projects most developers would find overwhelming. He handles it all — fast, clear, and without drama. When I needed someone for my own site, the decision took about five seconds."
"Of all the many hats a personal trainer or gym owner has to wear, fussing over how to make, manage, or update a website can feel like a full-time job. Jer and I have been working together for several years, and I don't know what I would have done without him. He's professional, he's efficient, he doesn't blow smoke up your 'you know where', and he doesn't make you feel like you need to take out a second mortgage to afford him. If you're on the fence, here's your opportunity to hop off of it."
"Jer is incredible to work with, he's skilled, knowledgeable, and has helped bring ideas for my website and business to life that makes my job infinitely easier. His communication skills are second to none. I highly recommend him!"
"The best thing I can say about Jer is you don't even know he's there... shit just works... he's a Ninja Webmaster. On top of that, he's extremely fair priced. Don't use Jer at your own peril."
"Working with Jeremy has been a breath of fresh air. As Executive Director of Literacy Unlimited, it means a great deal to have someone on the technical side who truly understands how organizations like ours operate. He communicates clearly, solves problems quickly, and makes complex technology feel manageable. I highly recommend Jeremy to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful tech support."
"Jer has been our primary technical person for six years. He built and maintains our infrastructure — from our APIs and database systems to our web properties and marketing technology. In that time, we've grown our company and had zero unplanned downtime. He responds immediately when it matters, explains things clearly, and has never let us down. For a company at our scale, that kind of reliability and communication is everything."
"Jeremy is very easy to work with and always quick to respond when we need support. He helps address issues and anticipate potential problems, giving our organization reliable and straightforward tech support we can count on. I would recommend him to any non-profit director looking for someone they can truly rely on."
"Working with Jeremy is an incredibly positive experience. He brings strong technical expertise and a thoughtful awareness of the realities and challenges non-profits face, which truly sets him apart. He consistently brings clarity and calm to what can often feel overwhelming, and his reliability and clear communication make complex projects feel manageable from start to finish. I would highly recommend him to any organization looking for exceptional responsive support."
It takes time to make good food, good coffee, and good code.
No hard sell. No ticket system. No disappearing act after launch. Just a straight conversation about your situation and whether I can help. I reply fast.
