Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose custom WordPress development over a theme?

Custom WordPress development gives you complete control over design, functionality, and performance. Pre-made themes often include unnecessary features that slow down your site. Custom development means faster loading times, better SEO, and a unique design that matches your brand perfectly.

How much does WordPress development cost in London?

Custom WordPress development typically starts at £3,500 for a basic business website. WooCommerce stores start at £5,000. Complex sites with custom functionality can range from £8,000-£15,000+. I provide detailed quotes based on your specific requirements.

Do you use page builders like Elementor or Divi?

No, I build custom WordPress themes with clean, hand-coded HTML, CSS, and PHP. Page builders add bloat and slow down your site. Custom development results in faster loading times, better SEO, and easier maintenance.

Can you migrate my existing WordPress site?

Yes, I offer WordPress migration services including moving to a new host, upgrading to HTTPS, or redesigning your existing site. I handle all technical aspects including database migration, DNS updates, and ensuring zero downtime.

Do you provide WordPress maintenance and support?

Yes, I offer monthly WordPress maintenance packages starting from £50/month. This includes security updates, backups, uptime monitoring, content updates, and technical support. Custom maintenance plans available for larger sites.

What is headless WordPress and do you offer it?

Headless WordPress uses WordPress as a content management system with a separate frontend (like React or Next.js). This provides better performance, security, and flexibility. Yes, I specialize in headless WordPress development using Next.js and the WordPress REST API.
