Nantes web agency since 2006 building WordPress sites with SEO, Ads and managed hosting
About AE2
AE2 is a web agency in the Nant'est business zone at 2 allée des Vieux Tilleuls, Nantes, in the Pays de la Loire region. It has worked with small and mid-sized French businesses since 2006 and marked its twentieth year in 2026. Yann Bruneau is the gérant (managing director). Ten team members are named, including project managers, an SEO and paid search lead, a social media specialist, a UX/UI designer, and front-end and back-end developers. All eleven staff are employees on permanent contracts, and the agency does not use freelancers.
The agency builds and redesigns WordPress websites and runs PrestaShop and WooCommerce shops. It has been a certified PrestaShop agency since 2009 and is an official partner of Crédit Agricole. It maintains more than 250 live sites. Marketing services cover SEO, Google Ads, organic and paid social media, and GEO, which aims to get a business cited in AI-generated answers as well as in standard search results.
Its SEO work starts with an audit of the market, competitors, existing pages, search queries, customer reviews, traffic and rankings. The work then moves to technical fixes, site structure and internal linking, on-page content and link building. Local SEO covers Google Business Profile optimisation, review management, location-specific pages, local citations and local links. The agency plans SEO into new sites from the design stage, with mobile-first layouts. It tracks results with Google Search Console and Google Analytics. Redesigns follow five steps: a technical audit, rebuilding the site structure, custom design, an SEO migration and launch.
AE2 also hosts and maintains client sites on a dedicated server. The service includes daily automatic backups stored in several data centres, round-the-clock server and CMS maintenance, and professional liability and cyber insurance. This could suit a practice that wants one supplier for its website, hosting and search work.
AE2 does not market itself to dentists and has no dental or healthcare page. Its portfolio has one healthcare project, a showcase site for Clinique de Bonneveine. Other projects include e-commerce brands such as Hellfest Shop and Herbolistique, and an intranet for the Sèvre et Loire community of communes. It has no named dental clients or dental results.
The agency publishes no prices. It has an excellent Google rating, and one customer review notes that Yann Bruneau has led the agency for more than ten years. For a French-speaking dental practice in or near Nantes, AE2 is a general web and search agency to consider for a site rebuild, local SEO and hosting.
