Our Key WordPress Services

WordPress Page Management

Our team handles everything from routine content updates to the creation of entirely new pages. If your site requires custom layouts, we develop and integrate new template files and bespoke designs to ensure a seamless user experience.

Speed, Optimisation & Performance Auditing

Our comprehensive approach to speed begins with a thorough site analysis, moving quickly from audit to expert implementation to ensure every bottleneck is addressed. We maximize performance through smart media optimisation—including precision image compression and Next-Gen (WebP) conversion—alongside rigorous code efficiency practices like asset minification and the elimination of render-blocking resources. Since 53% of mobile visits are abandoned if a page takes longer than three seconds to load, we focus on delivering the fast load times necessary to improve your SEO and ensure you never lose another lead to a slow loading screen.

WordPress Core and Plugin Updates

Take the hassle out of website maintenance. We manage your WordPress core and plugin updates through a proven, seamless process that ensures minimal to zero downtime. By keeping your software current, we ensure your site remains secure, stable, and fully optimized.

WordPress Bug Fixing

Fixing From the dreaded "White Screen of Death" to plugin conflicts and broken updates, we specialize in rapid recovery. We diagnose the root cause and implement a reliable fix to get your site back online and functioning perfectly.

24/7 Vulnerability Monitoring & Security

Rest easy knowing your website is protected 24/7. We identify vulnerabilities and implement a robust defense plan to shield you from viruses and security breaches. Should the worst happen, our team provides fast, effective malware removal. We don’t just fix problems; we prevent them from happening in the first place.

WordPress Backups

Ensure business continuity with our perpetual backup solutions. We design and implement robust data-retention plans, performing full daily backups of your entire site. By maintaining secure, off-site copies, we guarantee your website can be restored instantly, no matter what happens.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

We fine-tune your WordPress site to help you climb the search rankings. From implementing "behind-the-scenes" technology like JSON markup to optimizing site structure, we ensure your business is found by the right customers and drive consistent traffic to your site.

SOS and Emergencies

Even the best-maintained websites face unexpected crises. Whether it’s a "Fatal Error" or a broken database connection, we provide priority emergency support to bring your site back online. We act fast to restore full functionality, minimizing downtime and protecting your reputation.

Regular Maintenance & Retainers

Keep your website in peak condition with our flexible maintenance options. Choose between one-off sessions or a dedicated monthly retainer. Our retainer clients benefit from guaranteed hours each month, ensuring consistent updates, proactive performance checks, and priority support.

Child Theme Creation

When working with premium themes, we implement child themes to ensure your customizations remain permanent. This industry-standard approach allows us to modify your site’s design and functionality without the risk of losing changes during parent theme updates.

Staging & Sandbox Environments

Eliminate the risk of live site errors with a dedicated staging environment. We create a perfect "sandbox" replica of your website where updates and design changes can be dry-run and tested before they go live, ensuring your public-facing site remains flawless.

eCommerce & WooCommerce Solutions

Transform your website into a high-converting digital storefront. From physical goods and digital downloads to subscriptions and bookings, we build flexible platforms designed to scale. We also streamline your operations by integrating automated order fulfillment services.

WordPress Database Optimisation

As your website grows, so does its data. We analyze and refine your database structures and indexes to ensure your site remains lightning-fast. By cleaning up overhead and optimizing query paths, we prevent the "bloat" that typically slows down maturing websites.

Automation & AI Integration

Stop drowning in manual admin work. By using powerful tools like Zapier and Google Tag Manager, we help you eliminate repetitive tasks and streamline client onboarding. From managing 24/7 marketing campaigns to automating data collection, we design seamless systems that keep your business running smoothly.

CRM Integration

Streamline lead management by connecting your website directly to your preferred CRM platform (Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, etc.). By automating this process, we eliminate manual data entry, reduce human error, and ensure your sales team can follow up with new leads instantly.

Payment Gateway Integration

Expand how you collect payments with secure gateway integrations. Whether you need a standard solution like Stripe or PayPal, or bespoke development for a niche provider, we ensure your checkout process is seamless, secure, and PCI-compliant.

Seamless WordPress Migrations

Moving your website shouldn’t mean moving into a crisis. We manage the end-to-end transfer of your WordPress installation, including all files and databases. Our migration process is engineered for zero downtime, ensuring a stress-free transition.

Advanced API Integration

Unlock the full potential of your website by connecting it to the tools you use every day. We create seamless bridges that sync content, orders, and products between WordPress and your external platforms, ensuring your business operates as a unified system.

WordPress Tutoring and Training

Need a hand with your website? We provide friendly WordPress lessons and reliable tech support. No project is too big or too small—choose between our flexible support packages or ad-hoc help as you need it.

Strategy & Expert Consulting

Navigating the WordPress ecosystem can be complex. We help you make informed decisions on hosting, themes, and plugins that align with your business goals, ensuring your site is built on a rock-solid foundation.

Project Scoping & Success Architecture

Avoid the pitfalls of unplanned development. We leverage nearly two decades of experience to architect a solid plan for your next build. By defining technical requirements and aligning them with your expectations, we ensure a powerful, efficient, and successful final product.

Custom-Crafted WordPress Themes

Bring your vision to life with a pixel-perfect theme built from the ground up. Whether you have a Figma file, Photoshop file or a concept, we transform it into a high-performance reality. Using ACF Pro, we build an intuitive backend that gives you full control over your content.

Bespoke Plugin Development

When off-the-shelf plugins fall short, we build custom solutions tailored to your exact business logic. From complex product wizards to bespoke booking portals, we engineer seamless, scalable functionality that solves your unique challenges.

Comprehensive Development & Rescue

No matter the stage of your project—new, part-completed, or an existing site—we bring 18+ years of expertise to the table. We bridge the gap between "difficult" requirements and functional solutions, ensuring every update is technically robust and scalable.

A Dedicated, One-to-One Experience

I believe the best results come from direct communication. When you work with me, you skip the agency gatekeepers and speak directly with the developer. This one-to-one partnership ensures faster turnaround times, clearer communication, and a deeper understanding of your business goals.
