WordPress Developer

A WordPress developer for sites that run on content.

About 98% of our design projects ship on WordPress — it’s where content, design, and a team that can edit its own site meet. Premium tooling included, hosting through our SiteGround partnership, small sites from $999.

The toolchain below is the one we publish, not a secret: what you’re quoted is what gets installed.

The stack

Our WordPress stack, published.

Paid licenses come with the build — no surprise renewals landing in your inbox.

Theme & builderOceanWP or Hello theme with Elementor on top. After handoff, your team edits pages visually — no developer needed for a headline change.
Forms & speedWP Forms for lead capture, WP Rocket for caching. The plugins are paid versions, licensed to your site, chosen because they hold up.
HostingSiteGround, through our hosting partnership — SSL, daily backups, staging. Or we deploy to hosting you already have.
Our approach

Quote, design, build, hand over.

01

Scope & quote

Page count and content drive the price. Fixed quote up front; half on start, half on delivery.

02

Design

From your Figma, from example sites you like, or from scratch. You approve the design before we build.

03

Build & migrate

Pages, forms, blog, and — on rebuilds — the redirects and meta that keep your existing rankings intact.

04

Launch & manage

Walk-through at handoff. Add WordPress Management — from $399/month, included with SEO plans — if you want updates, backups, and content changes done for you.

Is it for you?

Right for content-first marketing sites.

WordPress is the fit when the site’s job is content: service pages, location pages, a blog that feeds SEO. If you can work in Wix or Squarespace, you can run the site we hand you.

It’s not the fit for everything — when raw mobile speed is the brief we build on Astro, and stores belong on Shopify. We’ll say so in the scoping call.

WordPress sites start at
$999
half up front, half on delivery · fixed quote before work starts

Small sites start at $999. Size sets the rest.

A five-page service site sits near the floor; page count, custom features, and content push the quote up from there — and we itemize what does. Need the words too? Our web content team writes pages built for search.

  • Premium plugin licenses included
  • You own the site and the content
  • No long-term contracts
  • Management plans optional, not required
Questions

WordPress, answered straight.

Cost, tooling, and what happens after launch. For the broader practice, see our website design agency page.

Small WordPress sites start at $999, half up front and half on delivery. Page count, content, and custom features drive the quote from there — a fixed number you see before work starts, not an estimate that grows.

OceanWP or Hello theme, Elementor as the builder, WP Forms for lead capture, and WP Rocket for caching — paid versions, licensed to your site and included in the build. We publish the stack because you’ll live with it after handoff.

Yes — that’s the point of Elementor. If you can work in a Wix or Squarespace environment, you can edit the pages we hand you. We do a walk-through at handoff, and a Website Management plan is there if you’d rather we handle changes.

The Advanced WP Management package starts at $399/month. It covers five content, slider, widget, or graphic updates per month, application and theme updates, security management, two backup copies of the site, troubleshooting, and full analytics and Google Tag Manager management — with responses usually within 24 hours. On our SEO plans it’s included at no additional monthly fee; only major requests like a full redesign are quoted separately.

Our hosting partnership is with SiteGround — SSL, daily backups, and staging included. If you already have hosting you like, we deploy there instead. Either way the site, domain, and content are yours.

Not if the migration is done right. We carry over URL redirects, meta titles and descriptions, and schema markup as part of every rebuild — it’s the step most developers skip and the first one we scope, because we’re an SEO agency before we’re a design shop.
