CMS Website builds
WordPress, Drupal, HubSpot and more
For most of our clients, the website represents the digital front door—it’s where branding, messaging, and business identity come together. We build and support robust WordPress and Drupal websites that serve both informational and marketing purposes. These sites often outline the core services or SaaS offering and act as the initial user touchpoint. Their CMS’ may also include lead capture, landing pages, blog content, integrations with CRM tools, and lightweight applications designed to guide visitors into deeper engagement.

Case Study: HubSpot Membership Data APIs
Client Overview
MMRMA (Michigan Municipal Risk Management Authority) provides coverage and services to local government entities. Their WordPress website included a membership portal that needed to sync user data with HubSpot CRM.
The Challenge
Membership data was siloed between the website and CRM, requiring manual syncing and limiting the effectiveness of communication and reporting workflows.
Our Solution
Basebuild integrated the WordPress membership system with HubSpot using its API. Member profile data now syncs in real time, keeping contact records current and automating onboarding workflows inside HubSpot.
Server and tech stack
- Automated membership syncing with HubSpot

- Less reliance on manual data entry and exports
Results
We developed a flexible WordPress foundation tailored to MMRMA’s unique member services, with clean navigation and modular content blocks that make updates easy for internal teams — no dev help required.
- Behind the scenes, we connected WordPress to HubSpot’s CRM using custom API hooks. This enables real-time member data sync, smart form behavior, and marketing automation — all without compromising site performance.
- Built with MMRMA’s members in mind, the site features gated content, intuitive resource access, and CRM-aware forms that ensure the right message reaches the right person at the right time.
Why it matters
This project demonstrates how Basebuild empowers organizations to make better use of their CRM by connecting their WordPress infrastructure directly to their marketing and contact management tools.

Case Study: HubSpot API Integration for Students
Client Overview
Youth For Understanding USA (YFUusa) is a student exchange organization. Their team needed the WordPress website to sync student lead data with their HubSpot CRM for marketing and recruitment purposes.
The Challenge
YFU’s marketing relied on capturing student interest through forms and pages on their WordPress site, but data wasn’t flowing directly into HubSpot, creating manual labor and risk of error.
Our Solution
We integrated the WordPress site with HubSpot’s API to enable real-time data syncing from custom forms and user actions. This eliminated duplicate entry, streamlined automation workflows, and made campaign tracking far more accurate.
Server and tech stack
- The CMS is built on WordPress which allows for flexible content management and customization, which is evident in the site’s dynamic content and user-friendly design.
- Multiple HubSpot API integrations, such as forms and marketing tools. This integration facilitates customer relationship management (CRM) and marketing automation, enhancing user engagement and data collection.
- Utilizes custom themes and plugins, suggesting tailored development to meet specific organizational needs. This customization likely supports unique functionalities and design elements that align with YFU USA’s branding and operational requirements.
Results
