My site was hacked. What do you actually do?

Isolate it, clean the malware, find the entry point, patch it, then harden the site so it doesn't recur. If Google flagged you, we submit the review request and watch Search Console until the warning clears.

Can you work with our existing theme and plugins?

Usually. We audit first — some page-builder setups are cheaper to rebuild than to untangle, and we'll show you that math before you decide anything.

Do you resell hosting?

No. Your site runs on your account, wherever that is — Cloudways is common among our clients — and we'll move it when the host is the actual problem.

Will a redesign hurt our search rankings?

Not if the redirects are done properly. We map old URLs to new before launch and watch Search Console for weeks after. Rankings drop when that step gets skipped.

What does a WordPress website cost to build and maintain?

Builds are quoted fixed after a free consultation — the price depends on design, content volume, and integrations, and we'd rather scope it honestly than throw out a teaser number. Care plans that keep the site updated, backed up, and secure start at $850/month, no contract.

WordPress, done properly.

We've been building on WordPress since 2012 — marketing sites, WooCommerce stores, redesigns, migrations, and the unglamorous work of keeping sites fast, secure, and up to date.

what we do on wordpress

The work we take on.

Builds & redesigns

Custom themes and block-based builds your team can edit without calling us. Redesigns keep your URL structure and rankings intact — redirects mapped before launch, not after.

WooCommerce

Storefront setup, payment and shipping configuration, subscriptions, and the plugin surgery in between. When Shopify is the better fit, we'll say so before you spend.

Speed & Core Web Vitals

LCP, INP, and CLS work that shows up in Search Console: image pipelines, object caching, query cleanup, and removing the page-builder bloat that got you here.

Security & hacked-site recovery

Hardening, malware cleanup, and closing the entry point — usually an abandoned plugin or a stale admin account. If Google has flagged your site, we handle the review request too.

Hosting moves

Host-to-host migrations with a DNS cutover plan and zero-guess redirects. Many of our clients run on Cloudways; we're comfortable there and on most managed hosts.

Editorial tooling

ACF field groups, custom post types, block patterns, and editor cleanup so your content team stops fighting the admin.

when wordpress fits

We'll tell you honestly which platform fits.

Content-led sites

Marketing sites, publications, and organizations where editing freedom matters more than commerce depth.

Budget-conscious builds

A well-built WordPress site is still the most cost-effective way to get a serious web presence.

Alongside your store

Many of our Shopify clients run WordPress for content — we keep both wired together and consistent.

straight talk

When we'd point you to Shopify instead.

WordPress is our oldest practice — we've built on it since 2012. That's exactly why we won't sell it to you for the wrong job.

The catalog is the business

If most of your pages are products and checkout is where the money moves, keeping a WooCommerce plugin stack healthy usually costs more than Shopify's fees.

Checkout keeps breaking

Every Woo checkout is a custom liability: gateway plugins, tax plugins, PHP versions. Shopify's checkout is boring in the best way — and we can extend it where it matters.

Nobody owns updates

Core, plugin, and PHP updates never stop on WordPress. If nobody on your team owns them, Shopify deletes that category of work entirely.

The advice is free either way. We build on both platforms, so we have no stake in which one you pick — only in whether it fits.

working with us

Free consultation first. Fixed quotes after.

Free consultation

A call and a proper look — plugin inventory, hosting, Search Console. No charge, and no obligation to go further.

Fixed-quote projects

Builds, redesigns, migrations, and rescues are scoped and quoted before we start. The number doesn't drift mid-project.

Care plans from $850/month

Updates, backups, monitoring, and small fixes handled month to month. No long-term contract — cancel anytime.
