Four-person Lille web studio pairing SEO copywriting with in-house site development
About BASH/
BASH/ is a small independent web agency in Lille, operated by BASH SAS and created in 2021. Its founders are Hélène Blondel Salaün and Alexandre Salaün, and the name is built from their initials. Both had about ten years of agency, in-house and freelance experience before they started. Hélène runs the editorial team and writes content. Alexandre leads web development and hosting. Two further staff complete the team of four: Mathilde Leroy, a web writer covering SEO and AI content, and Emilie Podczaszy, a back-end developer.
The agency's offer combines two trades that dental practices often buy separately: search-oriented writing and website building. On the content side, BASH/ writes blog articles, category pages and product texts built around keyword research and clear page structure, and it can track and refine them after delivery. It also offers AI-assisted writing in which tools such as Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini help with research and first drafts, while human editors rewrite, enrich and approve every piece. A separate editorial strategy service audits existing content, competitors and target keywords, then sets out topics, formats, tone and publishing frequency. A December 2025 article on their blog covers writing for generative AI search.
On the build side, BASH/ creates showcase sites, blogs and online shops, choosing the technology for each project. Optional hosting runs on AWS or Scalingo and includes maintenance, security updates and support, and clients keep ownership of their site and domain. Projects move through a needs analysis, a detailed quote, a written specification, progress updates and post-launch support. For specialist topics such as SEO/SEA consulting, social media, legal work and translation, the founders bring in trusted outside experts rather than cover every skill in-house.
No dental or healthcare clients are named. Named references come from media, e-commerce and consulting. Testimonials come from OP1C, the digital lead of Wéo within Rossel France, and the founder of the brand Mademoiselle Biloba. Clients describe work on a press site redesign, a blog overhaul, an SEO audit and e-commerce advice. They praise rigour, flexibility, transparency and clear communication. An independent SEO and analytics consultant who has worked alongside the team adds a similar view.
For a dental practice, BASH/ fits best as a content and website partner: a clinic that needs well-written treatment pages, a regular blog and a maintained site, mostly in French. Practices that need Google Business Profile management, review generation or paid search would need another provider for those parts. Prices are not published, and quotes follow an initial needs review. The studio's values are kindness, support, client satisfaction and hybrid working, and it works with clients across France from its Lille base.
