Your WordPress Website Partners

Our clients often tell us they’re too embarrassed to send people to their website.

They’ve tried to ignore the problem, but now it’s affecting their business.

Customers can’t buy online because functions are broken, and they’re spending more and more time fixing their websites.

We’ve been building websites since 2011 and love using tech to help people solve business problems, and seeing the difference a great-performing website makes to our client's bottom lines.

Our Values

Tech can be overwhelming, so we make doing business simple

Expert

You don’t need to keep on top of the latest releases and trends. We deal with the technical stuff so that you don’t have to.

Honest

It’s easy to get overwhelmed when talking about websites. We’re transparent and honest. We won’t recommend a solution that is more than we think you need.

Collaboration

You know your business better than us. We take on board our client's feedback and incorporate that into our work. Although we will give you our honest opinion if we think a different approach will bring more value.

Community

We’re super nice and like to work with other nice people! We like to build strong connections with our clients and have a few laughs along the way.

Ethical

We care about people and the planet. We operate as sustainably as possible, ensure that our staff and contractors are paid well, and promote a healthy work-life balance.

Charity

We give back through our pro bono work for non-profit and charitable organisations. Because not having a great website shouldn’t hold them back.

Any Questions?

Mostly, yes. It's our favourite platform due to its flexibility and cost effectiveness. We can also assist with Shopify sites, and other platforms though - just ask. 

WordPress is open source content management software and currently powers around 40% of all websites on the internet.

The project is contributed to by tens of thousands of developers all over the world and is growing from strength to strength.

WordPress allows us to develop flexible and customisable websites to modern standards and observes web development best practices. You aren't locked into costly plans and are free to go with the website host of your choice. 

Yes we sure can, and migration is usually free. See our WordPress website hosting page for more details.

Ideally you have brand guidelines for us to follow. This makes the website build process so much smoother. If you don't currently have any brand guidelines, we can hook you up with our favourite brand designers to help with this. High quality copy and imagery is also key to website success. We have copywriting addons for all of our website packages, and can recommend photographers to capture those high quality photos too. There's also some technical stuff like domain registration, DNS and hosting details we'll likely need but we'll walk you through this when the time comes.

If you have everything ready to go, most essentials websites can be built within 3-4 weeks. Obviously more complex sites require more time. We'll outline the expected timeframe in your proposal.

That's up to you! We can take care of hosting and maintenance for you if you like, or you may wish to do the maintenance yourself - in which case we'll provide you with a handy DIY guide. All website packages include a 1 hour training session to teach you how to update your content and images after we go live with your new website. Of course we're always here to help if you need updates done and you don't have the time or the desire to DIY it.

For essentials website, the total investment is usually split into three payments. A deposit, one progress payment, and one prior to go live. We can also split this out into 4-6 equal monthly payments depending on the project size.
