What is custom WordPress development?
Custom WordPress development builds a theme and plugins designed specifically for your brand, rather than using a pre-made template. The result is faster, more secure and easy for your team to edit. We include training and launch support.

Common questions.
Do you use page builders or custom code?
We build custom themes for performance and flexibility, and can use block editors or page builders where editing ease is a priority.
Can you fix or speed up my WordPress site?
Yes. We audit plugins, hosting and code, then optimise for speed and security.
Will I be able to update content myself?
Yes. We train your team and provide a simple editing guide.
Can you migrate my site to WordPress?
Yes. We migrate content, images and URLs from other platforms and set up redirects to protect your rankings.
How long does a website take?
Most business sites launch in 4 to 10 weeks. E-commerce and custom builds can take longer depending on features.
Can I edit the site myself?
Yes. We build on a CMS and train your team so you can update content without developers.
Do you handle hosting and maintenance?
Yes. We provide web hosting for the sites we build and for existing ones, along with ongoing support plans for updates, security and performance.
Will my website work on mobile devices?
Yes. Every site is designed mobile-first and tested on real phones, tablets and desktop browsers.
Will my site be optimised for search engines?
Yes. We build in clean code, fast loading, proper headings, metadata and structured data, so your site is ready to rank from launch.
Should I choose WordPress, Shopify or a custom build?
WordPress suits content-led sites, Shopify suits straightforward stores, and custom builds suit unique features or demanding performance. We recommend the best fit for your goals and budget.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes. We audit what you have, keep what is working, and redesign the rest while protecting your search rankings through proper redirects.
Do I own my website and domain?
Yes. You own the design, code, content and domain. We register everything in your name.
Can you connect payments, bookings or a CRM?
Yes. We integrate payment gateways, booking tools, CRMs, email platforms and analytics so your website fits into how you run your business.
What do you need from me to start?
Your goals, brand assets and any content you already have. We can write copy and source imagery for you if you need it.
