WordPress for
Teams &
Small Businesses

A WordPress site should be something your marketing team runs, not something they fight with. We build custom themes with native blocks, a lean plugin list and a real performance budget. From landing pages to full sites, the right setup for how you actually publish. So your team ships content without raising a ticket.

Work out what your marketing team actually needs to control before choosing a single plugin

Most painful WordPress builds come from the same mistake: a theme chosen before anyone asked what the content team needs to do daily. We start with the editorial workflow, who publishes what, how often, and which parts must be changeable without a developer. That decides the block structure, the plugin list and whether WordPress is even the right answer.

Editorial workflow
Who publishes what, how often, and which parts must be editable without a developer. This decides the whole architecture, so it comes first.
Content model
Post types, taxonomies and custom fields designed around how your content actually relates, rather than bent to fit a theme you bought.
Plugin audit
Every plugin is an attack surface and a performance cost. We keep the list as short as it can defensibly be and build the rest natively.
Performance budget
Agreed Core Web Vitals targets enforced in CI, so speed is a build constraint rather than an optimisation project six months later.
Migration plan
Content, URLs and redirects mapped before anything moves, so a relaunch does not quietly cost you your existing search rankings.

Custom blocks, a lean plugin list and a build your marketing team can run themselves

We build custom themes with native Gutenberg blocks rather than bolting on a page builder that fights you later. Every plugin has to justify its place, each one is an attack surface and a performance cost. The result is a site your team can extend confidently, that scores well on Core Web Vitals, and that does not need a developer to change a headline.

Custom theme development
Purpose-built themes with native Gutenberg blocks, no page builder bloat, no template nobody can safely change.
Block library
A documented set of custom blocks matching your design system, so the marketing team assembles pages from approved components.
WooCommerce
Product structure, checkout and payment work aimed at conversion rate, with the integrations your operations actually depend on.
Headless WordPress
Where it makes sense, WordPress as a content API behind a Next.js front end, editorial familiarity with modern front-end performance.
Multilingual & multisite
Translation workflows and multisite structures set up so adding a language or a region does not mean rebuilding the whole thing.

Updates, security, performance budgets and the monitoring that keeps a WordPress site healthy

WordPress rewards maintenance and punishes neglect. We handle core and plugin updates on a staging environment first, run security hardening properly, hold the site to a performance budget, and monitor uptime and Core Web Vitals continuously. You get a monthly report on what changed and what it cost, and full documentation so you could move it in-house whenever you want.

Updates & testing
Core, theme and plugin updates applied on staging and tested before they touch production. Never automatic, never on a Friday.
Security hardening
Proper file permissions, login protection, a web application firewall and monitoring, plus tested, restorable backups rather than backups you hope work.
Performance monitoring
Continuous Core Web Vitals and uptime monitoring with alerting, so degradation surfaces before your customers find it.
SEO maintenance
Crawl health, redirects, structured data and internal linking kept in order as the site grows and content gets reorganised.
Documentation & training
Written runbooks and training for your team, because the point is that you own the site rather than rent access to it.

A SITE YOU CAN RUN

Want a WordPress or WooCommerce site your marketing team can actually operate without raising a ticket?

Then let's build it properly. With 7+ years of WordPress and WooCommerce work behind us, we know which shortcuts cost you later, and we would rather spend an extra week on the block structure than hand you something that needs a developer every Tuesday.
