WordPress is the market leading website content management system used around the globe by major companies like CNN and UPS as well as small local companies and start-up businesses.
WordPress is ideal for those who want a modern, responsive, versatile web presence which is easily editable without the need to understand complex code.
Once your WordPress website is built the administrative backend of the system allows access to edit existing content, add new content, add or remove pages and sections or even change the style and look of your website with no technical knowledge required.
We’ll give you all the guidance necessary to run and update your site without the need for a developer to do the work for you.
The WordPress system gives you this flexibility along with their unrivalled and pretty much unlimited extensibility through their plugin system.
Plugin’s allow you to bolt on extra features to enhance the out of the box setup you get with WordPress. They allow for example, for upgraded SEO integration, enhanced security features, or site speed optimisation.
WordPress provides a flexible solution whatever your project requires. It’s the original blogging platform that’s evolved into a solution for small business landing pages, goods and services promotion, content provision and even comes with its own ecommerce bolt on called WooCommerce.
Many big corporations are with Wordpress because of the ease of scalability; it’s so easy to get your website off the ground, and as your business grows your WordPress website grows with you.
How long does a new WordPress site take to build?
It depends on the specifics of each project, but as a guideline: a one or two page information website can often be completed in less than a week. A full scale website with additional pages, custom posts and extra functionality can generally be delivered within two to four weeks. Once we have a better idea on the scale of your project we can give you a more accurate timeline.
Are there any ongoing fees?
Not from us. Your website will need ongoing hosting and a registered domain name, but once we have built and delivered you WordPress website, you will own it for life without further charge.
Do I need to arrange hosting for my website?
If you don’t already have hosting you will need to set up an account with a hosting provider for ongoing hosting of your website and any associated email accounts. But don’t worry, the process is as simple as a few clicks, and we’ll guide you through what service we think you will need for your project, and give you a step by step guide to creating an account.
Using our experience with a variety of hosting providers we’re able to recommend who we think provide the best value for money and the best reliability for your website. Check out hosting options here.
Do I need to arrange a web domain/website address?
You will need a domain name for your website. Domain names are available from a range of providers often for as little as £10 per year. We generally recommend purchasing your domain along with hosting from the same company for simplicity of setup and ongoing admin.

What do you need from me to get started?
We need your thoughts and ideas on how you want your WordPress website to look and function. Maybe you have a specific idea or have seen another website you like the look of or want similar features or functionality. Or maybe you have no idea and want us to come up with some options for you. Either way is fine!
Once you’re happy with a design concept, we’ll need any images, photos or written content that you want us to include to get started.
Do you provide the written content for my WordPress website?
As this website is personal to you or your business it’s best that you provide the written text that you wish to be included, but we do work with talented content writers that we can instruct on your behalf for an additional fee if you want professional help with the content.
Do you only build WordPress Websites?
No, we mostly use WordPress because of its simple and versatile admin which allows clients to easily amend and add to their sites without needing to code, but we can also create sites using standard HTML or for more bespoke software solutions we use PHP.
