Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WordPress development

What types of WordPress projects do you work on?

I work on everything from simple business websites to complex e-commerce stores and custom web applications. Whether you need a new site built from scratch, an existing site redesigned, or custom functionality added, I can help.

Do you use page builders like Elementor or Divi?

I can work with page builders if that's what you prefer, but I typically recommend custom theme development for better performance, security, and long-term maintainability. Custom themes load faster and give you more control.

Can you help with an existing WordPress site?

Absolutely. I regularly help clients with existing WordPress sites - whether that's fixing bugs, adding new features, improving performance, or taking over maintenance from a previous developer.

Do you provide hosting?

I can recommend reliable hosting providers suited to your needs and budget, and handle the setup and migration for you. For ongoing maintenance clients, I also offer managed hosting packages.

How much does WordPress development cost?

Costs vary depending on the project scope. Simple business sites start from around £500, while complex e-commerce or custom functionality projects can range from £2,000-£10,000+. I provide detailed quotes after understanding your requirements.

How long does a WordPress project take?

A simple business site typically takes 2-4 weeks. More complex projects with custom functionality or e-commerce can take 4-8 weeks. I'll give you a realistic timeline during our initial consultation.
