WordPress is easy
to start. Hard to keep

Most WordPress pain is not WordPress. It is decisions taken early to move fast, paid for every month afterwards.

Start With a Pilot Project

Plugins

Forty plugins, no reason why
Three doing the same job
Abandoned by their authors
Updates that break the layout
Licences nobody is renewing
Page weight on every load
Security surface nobody audits
Page builder lock-in

Editing

Client cannot edit pages
Layouts break when they try
No templates for new content
Fields that make no sense
Every change is a support call
Content welded into design
No reusable blocks
Global styles never wired

Inheritance

Theme edited directly
Custom code in functions.php
No staging, no version control
Backups nobody has restored
PHP version out of support
No documentation at all
Original developer gone
Afraid to press update

What We Build in WordPress

The work sits at the custom end. Off-the-shelf theme installs are cheap everywhere; the value is in what a template genuinely cannot do.

  • Built from your designs, not a template
  • Gutenberg blocks and block theme patterns
  • ACF field groups and flexible content

Performance & Migrations

What we build with

Standard, widely known tooling — so another developer can pick the project up without learning our conventions first.

  • WordPress
  • PHP
  • Elementor
  • WooCommerce
  • JavaScript
  • CSS
  • GitHub
  • Next.js

ACF Pro field groups, Gutenberg blocks and custom themes sit on the same foundation. Headless with Next.js where it genuinely earns its place.

What every WordPress build is measured against

Plugin discipline

Fewer, chosen deliberately, audited for what they do.

Performance

Fixed at source, not cached over.

Security

Patched dependencies, scoped credentials, hardened config.

Editor experience

Fields and blocks shaped around real content.

Data model

Post types and taxonomies designed before they are needed.

Staging first

Nothing goes straight to production, ever.

Accessibility

Semantic markup, keyboard paths, focus states.

Handover

Documented so another developer can take it on.

Scope & Audit

New build or inherited site, we start by establishing what is actually there: content, functionality, integrations, and anything already broken.

Build on Staging

Theme, blocks and any custom plugin work built and reviewed on staging, tested across browsers and devices before anything goes near production.

Launch & Support

Redirects mapped, performance measured, documentation handed over — then ongoing maintenance if you want the update cycle handled.

Plugin count is
the best predictor of future pain.

Every plugin is a dependency on someone else's maintenance schedule, and most WordPress sites carry several that overlap. Auditing that pile and replacing it with a small amount of code you own is usually the highest-value thing we can do to an inherited site.

WordPress development for agencies

A large share of this work arrives through marketing agencies who sell WordPress projects and need them built without carrying a permanent developer. It runs entirely under your brand.

Reselling WordPress under your own brand

Everything on this page can be delivered so your client only ever sees your agency. The terms, the process and the handover are set out in full on their own page.

Build WordPress under your agency's brand

WordPress maintenance you can resell

The retainer that follows the build, delivered under your brand with reports you can forward. Recurring revenue your agency keeps without hiring for it.

WordPress maintenance

Consistent across repeat projects

The same theme architecture, the same editor conventions and the same handover documentation on every build, so your team is not relearning a site each time.

How agency partnerships work

Beyond WordPress when it stops fitting

Some briefs outgrow WordPress. When that happens we will say so and build the right thing rather than forcing the platform to do something it resents.

WordPress FAQs

It depends on how much of the design is bespoke, how much custom functionality sits behind it, whether there is a legacy site to migrate, and whether anything talks to a third-party system. A brochure site from supplied designs and a site with a booking engine, a CRM sync and 4,000 posts to migrate are not the same project. We quote a fixed figure before anything starts.

It depends on who maintains the site and for how long. Page builders earn their place on small sites where a non-technical owner needs to change things. They cost you later in page weight, in Core Web Vitals, and in the layout being locked inside a plugin. A custom theme costs more up front and gives editors a constrained set of tools that cannot break the design.

Yes, and it is a substantial part of what we do. We start with an audit: platform and PHP versions, the plugin inventory, known vulnerabilities, whether the theme has been edited directly, and whether backups exist and work. You get that assessment before committing to anything. Occasionally the finding is that the site is cheaper to rebuild than to keep patching.

Yes: custom post types and taxonomies, admin interfaces, third-party integrations, WooCommerce extensions, and functionality that genuinely does not exist off the shelf. We also do the opposite, replacing three or four overlapping plugins with a small amount of purpose-built code, because plugin count is one of the more reliable predictors of how painful a site is to maintain.

Yes, typically with WordPress as the editing back end and Next.js on the front, connected through the REST API or WPGraphQL. It buys front-end performance and a modern component architecture. It costs you the live preview editors expect, the plugin ecosystem that assumed it controlled the front end, and a second system to maintain. Right for content-heavy sites where speed is commercial, wrong for a small marketing site.
