Sounds familiar?
- Your site runs on a template with twenty plugins bolted on.
- Simple edits break the layout.
- Pages take several seconds to load on a phone.
- Your last developer left, and nobody knows how it works.
- You need a booking, members or directory feature that plugins don’t quite do.
- Security warnings and failed updates are a regular event.
If two or more ring true, it’s worth a call.
What we do.
Built to be fast from the first line.
Speed is part of the specification, not a clean-up job after launch.
Lean by default
We write the theme for your site and add a plugin only when it earns its place.
Measured
We test on phones and slow connections before launch, and again after.
Search-ready
Clean headings, schema and sitemaps are built in, so SEO starts from a good place.
How it works.
Specify
We agree what the site has to do, then write it down: pages, features, integrations and a fixed price.
Build
We develop on a private staging site you can visit at any time, in stages you review.
Test
Browsers, phones, forms, speed, accessibility and security, checked before anything goes live.
Launch
We launch, hand over the guide and the logins, and stay on hand with a care plan if you want one.
A WordPress site is only as good as the design behind it.
Good development can’t rescue an unclear page. We design and build together, so the site makes sense to visitors and to the people who edit it.
How it’s priced.
WordPress development is a fixed price from a written specification. Care plans are monthly. What affects the price:
- How many templates and page types the design has
- Custom features such as booking, members areas or directories
- The integrations you need, such as a CRM or payment provider
- Whether it’s a new build or work on an existing site
- Whether you want a care plan after launch
Questions.
Something else? Ask us.
Do you build custom themes or use templates?
Custom themes, built for your design. We don’t re-skin a multipurpose template, so you aren’t paying for code the site never uses.
Which plugins do you use?
As few as possible. We use well-maintained plugins where they save time, and write custom code where a plugin would slow the site or limit you.
Can you work on our existing site?
Yes. We review the code first, then tell you whether to improve it or rebuild it.
Can you work with our designer or agency?
Yes. We build from your designs, and we’re happy to be the development team behind another agency. Our white label WordPress development page explains how.
Can you build WooCommerce shops?
Yes. We build shops that are quick to browse and straightforward to manage.
Who owns the code?
You do. At handover you receive the theme, a list of the plugins and every login.
Where are you based?
Reading, in the Thames Valley. We work with organisations across the UK, in person or on video.
