Our WordPress Development Process

  1. 1

    Discovery & Requirements

    We start by understanding your current site, your technical goals, and any constraints from hosting, existing plugins, or brand guidelines that need to be respected.

  2. 2

    Technical Assessment

    We review your current theme, plugins, hosting environment, and codebase to identify what can be reused, what needs replacing, and where performance or security gaps exist.

  3. 3

    Development & Build

    We build your theme or plugin following WordPress coding standards, using core APIs rather than fragile workarounds, so the result stays maintainable as WordPress evolves.

  4. 4

    Testing & Review

    Work is tested on a staging environment first — across devices, browsers, and existing site functionality — with a review round for your feedback before anything goes live.

  5. 5

    Launch & Handover

    We deploy to your live site, confirm everything functions as expected, and hand over documentation and training so your team can manage content going forward.

Why work with us

What you can expect

Straightforward WordPress development — clear scope, standards-based code, and documentation you can actually use.

Clear Scope Before We Start

You know exactly what’s being built or fixed and what’s included before any development begins — no surprise add-ons.

Direct Access to Who Wrote the Code

You can speak directly with the developer working on your site, not just an account manager relaying updates.

Standards-Based Development

We build on WordPress core APIs and coding standards rather than fragile custom hacks, so your site stays compatible with future WordPress updates.

No Lock-In

You own the theme, plugin code, and content — there’s no dependency on us to keep your site running.

Common Questions

Should we build a custom theme or use an existing WordPress theme?

It depends on your specific requirements and budget. Existing themes are faster to implement and lower cost, but may require plugin customization or development to match your exact branding and functionality needs. Custom themes give you full control over design and performance, but take longer to build and maintain. We assess your requirements and recommend the approach that makes sense for your business — we don’t always push for custom when a configured existing theme would work just as well.

How long does a WordPress theme or plugin development take?

Timelines vary based on complexity. A straightforward theme customization or simple plugin moves quickly, while a full custom theme build or complex plugin integration takes longer depending on the features and integrations needed. We agree a clear schedule with you upfront during discovery and provide milestone updates, so you know exactly when work will be ready.

What’s involved in migrating to WordPress or to a new WordPress host?

WordPress migrations involve moving your existing site, its content, images, and search engine history to a new platform or hosting environment while minimizing downtime. We audit your current setup first, plan the migration in detail, execute it on a test site, get your approval, then do the final live cutover. The process moves at a pace set by site complexity and how much content needs updating or reconfiguring during the move.

How do we keep our WordPress site secure?

WordPress security involves keeping the core software, themes, and plugins updated, using strong access controls, monitoring for vulnerabilities, and hardening the server environment. We provide security assessments to identify weak points, implement best practices like Web Application Firewalls, set up automated backups and monitoring, and maintain your site through ongoing updates. A maintenance contract ensures security stays current rather than becoming a periodic afterthought.
