WordPress Website Development

WordPress is a powerful and user-friendly content management system. WordPress allows for endless customization and functionality, making it the ideal choice for any web project

Using WordPress to build your website

WordPress is a free web building platform that enables the user to edit their own content and also opens up a world of bespoke functionality, very often at no extra cost.

WordPress Theme Building

I specialise in building custom WordPress themes. Over the years I have built a standard WordPress boilerplate that I keep up-to-date and that is equipped with built-in functionality as the start to your website build. On this strong foundation, your customised theme is begun, based on your branded website design or to an exact design spec, but ensuring responsivity and cross-browser compatibility.

Each new website I build comes standard with the following criteria:

  1. Onboard SEO
    Built in schema, social media sharing and onboard SEO, ready to be populated with your SEO keywords and phrases.
  2. Built in GSAP3 animation to handle scroll effects.
  3. Gutenberg Blocks
    A set of my own pre-built customised blocks to your spec and your own custom blocks if required.
  4. A light-weight, secure theme.
    As your theme is built to your spec, it has no bloat. Even 3rd party plugins are used sparingly, and where possible, light-weight snippets of code are created instead of using 3rd party plugins. This also has the added benefit of keeping your website as secure as possible, as close to native WordPress as viable and keeps the site less likely to be hacked. The theme is responsive and compatible with all major browsers.

WordPress Custom Plugin Creation

I have a stack of custom plugins I have built to handle functionality in a secure light-weight manner.

I create custom plugins to handle specific functionality as needed for each web project. Plugins are a great way to create web functionality and keep it separate from your theme, so the theme can be changed and the plugin will still work.
