WordPress Development

As WordPress developers in Christchurch, we build custom WordPress sites from scratch. No templates, no bloated page builders. Just clean code that does exactly what you need. We provide custom WordPress development for clients across New Zealand.

Why WordPress?

WordPress powers a huge chunk of the web because it works. It's flexible, easy to use, and you control your content. Need a blog? A shop? Something custom? WordPress can handle it.

Here's the thing - we build everything custom. No pre-made themes or bloated page builders. We write custom themes and plugins for your project. That means faster sites, better security, and code that's actually maintainable. Need an online store? We also build WooCommerce stores.

Custom WordPress Themes

Every theme we build is yours. Designed and coded specifically for your project. No generic templates, no bloated frameworks. Just a fast, lightweight theme that matches your brand and does what you need.

Custom WordPress Plugins

Need something that doesn't exist? We build custom plugins. Whether it's a complex integration or a simple feature, we'll make it work exactly how you need it.

Advanced Custom Fields Integration

We use Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) to build flexible content structures. Custom post types, flexible layouts, complex relationships - ACF makes it easy to manage without the complexity.

API Integrations

Need to connect to other services? We've built integrations with ticketing systems, CRMs, payment gateways, and more. Your WordPress site can be the hub for everything.

Responsive & Mobile-First

Every site we build works on phones, tablets, and desktops. We start mobile-first and test everywhere to make sure it looks good and works properly.

Performance & Security

Performance Optimization

Fast sites aren't optional. We optimize everything - database queries, images, caching, code efficiency. Your site will load fast and run smoothly.

Security Best Practices

Security is built in from the start. We follow WordPress best practices, implement proper authentication, keep everything updated, and configure your site to protect against common issues.

Our Development Approach

We build WordPress sites the right way. No off the shelf themes, no heavy page builders. Just clean, maintainable code that does what you need - nothing more, nothing less.

Here's what you get:

  • Custom themes built specifically for your project
  • Clean, well-documented code that's easy to maintain
  • Clean, fast, SEO friendly builds
  • User-friendly admin interface tailored to your needs
  • SEO-friendly structure and markup
  • CMS training and documentation so you can manage it yourself
  • Ongoing support and maintenance options

CMS Training & Site Owner Empowerment

We don't just build your site and disappear. We train you on how to use it. You'll get comprehensive CMS training so you can update content, add pages, manage users, and make changes yourself. Full control, no dependency on us for every little update.

We provide clear documentation, walk you through the admin interface, and show you how everything works. You'll also get analytics and conversion tracking set up so you can see how your site is performing. We want you to understand your site and be able to manage it confidently.

Of course, we're still here if you need help. But our goal is to give you the tools and knowledge to manage your site yourself.
