Custom WordPress & CMS

A custom theme and editing experience, without the plugin pile.

The problem

Your WordPress site runs on a bought theme and a long list of plugins. It is slow, fragile on every update, and your editors work around it instead of with it.

What's included

  • Custom theme built for your content, not adapted from a template
  • Structured content types and editor-friendly fields
  • Responsive, SEO-optimized page templates
  • Plugin audit, keeping only what earns its place
  • WhatsApp request-a-quote integration
  • SSL, hosting setup and backups

The stack

  • WordPress
  • PHP
  • Advanced Custom Fields
  • MySQL
  • WooCommerce

Typical outcomes

  • Editors publish without breaking the layout
  • Fewer plugins to update and secure
  • A site that looks like your brand rather than a theme

Results depend on your starting point and scope.

Common questions

WordPress is a good fit when non-technical editors publish often and the site is mostly content. For custom applications or strict performance targets, we recommend Next.js and will tell you if your project points that way.

Sometimes. Send us the URL in your brief and we will say in writing whether a repair or a rebuild is the better use of your budget.

Yes. Your editors keep the WordPress interface while visitors get a Next.js front end. We quote that as a combined scope.
