WordPress Development

Custom WordPress builds and themes made to your design — not a marketplace template — fast, secure, and straightforward for your team to edit.

Overview

Custom WordPress builds and themes made to your design — not a marketplace template — fast, secure, and straightforward for your team to edit.

Custom themes, not templates

We build the theme from your design, so the site looks like your brand rather than like everyone else who bought the same package. The editor is configured around the blocks your content actually needs.

Kept lean

Every plugin is a dependency and a security surface. We use as few as the job genuinely requires, and build the rest properly, which keeps the site fast and the maintenance predictable.

When we recommend it

When your content is mostly pages and posts, your team publishes often, and you want a CMS they already know. When the data stops looking like articles, we will tell you a custom build is the better value.

A theme built from your design

We build the theme from the design rather than buying one and bending it, so the site looks like your brand instead of like everyone else who bought the same package.

The block editor is configured around the content you actually publish, with the patterns your team needs and the ones they do not removed. An editor with fifty irrelevant blocks is an editor nobody uses correctly.

Why we keep the plugin list short

Every plugin is a dependency, a performance cost and a security surface. Sites that accumulate twenty of them reach a point where nobody dares run an update, and deferred updates are how a cheap start becomes an expensive middle.

We use the few that genuinely earn their place and build the rest properly. The result is a site that can be updated on a Tuesday without anyone holding their breath.

Speed on WordPress specifically

Most slow WordPress sites are slow for the same handful of reasons: oversized images, a page builder shipping CSS for components the page does not use, render-blocking fonts, and a stack of marketing scripts nobody has audited.

We fix the causes rather than layering a caching plugin over them, because caching hides a slow site from some visitors rather than making it fast.

Keeping it secure

Hardened configuration, restricted file permissions, enforced strong authentication, and a maintenance plan that keeps core, themes and plugins current. Backups that are tested by actually restoring one, not merely scheduled.

Most compromised WordPress sites are not targeted. They are found by automation looking for a known vulnerability in something two versions out of date.
