Web Development
Fast, accessible business websites and web applications built on a modern stack.
WordPress development
WordPress built properly, not piled with plugins
We build custom WordPress themes and plugins, rescue slow or hacked sites, and keep WordPress updated and secure, so your team keeps the editor they know.
The problem
Common WordPress problems
WordPress powers a huge share of the web. It is also easy to turn into a slow, fragile site.
Plugin bloat
Dozens of plugins slow the site and conflict with each other.
Security risk
Outdated core, themes and plugins are a common route for attacks.
Rigid page builders
Heavy builders make pages slow and layouts hard to keep consistent.
Fear of updates
Nobody updates the site because the last update broke it.
Our approach
Lean, maintainable WordPress
We keep WordPress simple: a custom theme, only the plugins you need, and a safe process for updates.
- Custom block-based themes instead of heavy page builders
- Custom plugins for features that would otherwise need several
- Staging site and backups before every update
- Security hardening and monitoring
- Editor experience designed around your content

FAQ
WordPress Development questions
Straight answers to the questions that come up in first calls.
Should we use WordPress or a custom-built site?
WordPress suits content-heavy sites that a marketing team updates often. A custom framework suits sites with complex features or strict performance needs. We can also combine them with headless WordPress.
Can you fix our slow WordPress site?
Usually, yes. We audit plugins, theme, images and hosting, then fix the biggest causes first.
Do you offer WordPress maintenance?
Yes. We handle updates on a staging site first, keep backups and monitor security and uptime.
