03 — Web & Software

WordPress Development

WordPress still powers a huge share of the web, and for content-heavy teams it's often the right tool. We build custom WordPress themes and Gutenberg blocks without bloated page builders — fast, secure and easy for editors — and rescue slow or broken WordPress and WooCommerce sites.

Sound familiar?

  • The site is slow because of page builders and plugins
  • Editors struggle with an inconsistent back-office
  • Security updates are always behind

WordPress Development FAQ

Should we move from WordPress to Next.js?

Not necessarily. If editing is central and the site is well built, WordPress is fine. We recommend Next.js when speed, custom experiences or scale matter more.

Can you fix a slow WordPress site?

Yes — usually by removing heavy plugins and page builders, optimising media and adding proper caching.

Do you offer maintenance?

Yes, a monthly care plan covering updates, backups, monitoring and small changes.
