WordPress website design

We build WordPress sites that business owners can actually edit themselves, that load quickly, and that are set up from day one to bring in enquiries. No page builder bloat, no theme with forty unused features.

Why we build on WordPress

It runs a large share of the web, so you’re never locked in to us. Any competent developer can pick up where we leave off.

You can update text, photos, prices and blog posts yourself in a familiar editor, without paying someone for every small change.

SEO, analytics, forms, booking tools and online shops all plug in cleanly, which matters once you start running ads.

How a project runs

Most small business sites take four to six weeks. Larger sites with shops or many locations take longer, and we’ll tell you up front.

  • Brief. We agree the pages, who the site is for and what counts as a result, usually a call or form enquiry.
  • Structure and copy. We plan the page layout and write or edit the words, built around what your customers search for.
  • Design and build. You see the site on a private link and send feedback in rounds.
  • Launch. We move it live, set up redirects from any old pages so you keep your rankings, and test every form.
  • Handover. You get full admin access, a walkthrough and support while you settle in.

Questions people ask before starting

Both. WordPress website design is a large part of what we do, but because we also run SEO and ad campaigns, we build every site with those in mind from the start.

Often, yes. If the content and structure are sound, a redesign is quicker and cheaper. We’ll look at it first and tell you which makes more sense.

Not if the move is handled properly. We map every old URL to its new one, keep the pages that already rank, and check Search Console after launch.

Yes, using WooCommerce. We set up products, payments, shipping and the tracking needed for shopping ads.

We can recommend good hosting and set it up for you, but the account stays in your name so you own everything.

We can write it, edit what you have, or work with your own copywriter. Either way, every page is checked for SEO before launch.
