The process of building a WordPress site on a budget.
An A to (nearly) Z guide to how we go about building your new website.
Building your site from our library of bespoke-built Gutenberg blocks.
Our WordPress sites all ship with a pre-built library of blocks for use in the Gutenberg editor.
These blocks are designed to cover most sites’ most common (and not so common) content requirements.
Each block is built from various fields you populate with your content.
Blocks can be moved around on the page and copied and pasted into other pages.
They all have options for some basic CSS styling as standard, using a range of helper classes that we’ve built, so you can easily customise your content without needing to call us.
Using our blocks, you’ll be able to build complete pages, build block patterns and quickly grow your website.
Do we use a page-builder plugin?
Certainly not! The site theme uses the built-in Gutenberg editor; adding a page builder, such as Elementor or Divi, would simply add code bloat to the site and slow things down.
You need your site to be quick, so our site build includes optimisation (pre- and post-live) to ensure the best UX and rankings.
Our sites are built to do exactly what you need them to do and nothing you don’t (although they are infinitely scaleable).
Page builders load endless code and CSS whether you are using every component or just one; this creates a slow website and a clunky UI when editing content.
Who actually builds the pages?
We do. Once we’ve calculated how many pages you need, our team will build them once the content is supplied.
We can build out everything for you, or we can build one page for each section of the site for you to clone and repopulate (easier on the budget).
If you already have an existing WordPress site, we can import the content from that directly into your new site (subject to how the current site is built).
However we approach it, we’ll make sure your site is built correctly, optimised for SEO and easy to manage.
