A proper starting point
Start with your business.
Build around the brief.
WordPress can be a straightforward business website or the foundation for something more involved. I design, develop and support WordPress sites around the way you work, from clear service pages to custom forms, integrations and WooCommerce stores.
We start with your content, customers and the jobs the website needs to handle. That helps decide which features belong in the first version, which can use established tools and which need custom development. Adding more plugins is not the same as building a better website.
I can work on a new build or review an existing WordPress site. If the current structure is sound, targeted changes may be more useful than replacing everything. Where a rebuild is needed, I plan the content and important URLs before the design work starts.

The detail behind the work
A considered approach.
From the start.
The choices, practical details and support that shape your project.
01A managed toolkit for everyday needs
My WordPress builds include a managed Pro toolkit covering suitable functions such as forms, backups, performance, search settings and security support. The setup is chosen for the site rather than enabling every feature by default. Licence and ongoing service arrangements are set out in the proposal.
On compatible sites I can also configure authorised AI/MCP access for supported tools and actions. Permissions, compatibility and human review matter. An AI assistant should make useful tasks easier without being handed unrestricted control over the business website.
02Custom development when the standard route stops short
I can extend WordPress with project-specific functionality, integrate external services and improve the templates or editing experience. For an online shop, WooCommerce adds product, order and checkout requirements that need their own planning.
Sumison is a practical example of WordPress and WooCommerce supporting trade features, customer pricing and a Linnworks connection. A smaller local-business site needs much less machinery, and its build should stay proportionate to the brief.
03Launch with support in place
Business WordPress websites start from £800 plus VAT, including the agreed design, development, on-page SEO and twelve months of website and email hosting. E-commerce builds start from £1500 plus VAT. Specialist integrations and larger requirements are quoted separately.
I can provide ongoing WordPress maintenance from £75 plus VAT a month, including annual hosting. That gives you a clear route for updates, practical support and future improvements, with the scope agreed before the service starts.

Tools with a purpose.
OneMCP Pro
Loginizer Pro
Elementor Pro
Backuply Pro
SpeedyCache Pro
SiteSEO Pro
Your Pro toolkit covers forms, search settings, performance, backups, login protection and supported AI connections. I configure the tools around your site and hosting, rather than adding overlapping features.
MCP connects compatible AI tools to the WordPress abilities you authorise. Available actions depend on the client, integrations and user permissions. It does not give every AI tool unrestricted control. Pro licence access is supplied through the managed service; exact tools and renewal arrangements are set out in your proposal.
OneMCP Pro
Connect a compatible AI assistant to supported WordPress tools, with the agreed user permissions and an activity log.
Loginizer Pro
Login protection and controls that help reduce automated attacks against your WordPress sign-in.
Elementor Pro
Visual page building, reusable layouts and Pro design features for a WordPress website that is easier to manage.
Backuply Pro
Website backups and a recovery route, with storage and schedules set around your agreed service.
SpeedyCache Pro
Caching and front-end optimisation where appropriate for the hosting and website. Shop and account pages need separate treatment.
SiteSEO Pro
Manage search titles, descriptions and other on-page SEO settings alongside the work on your actual content.
Before we get started
Good questions.
Straight answers.
Can you take over an existing WordPress site?
I can review it first, checking the builder, plugins, licences, custom code and hosting before agreeing the work.
Will my chosen AI tool work with WordPress?
I check the selected connector, site version and supported actions. Compatible AI/MCP setup is scoped with appropriate permissions rather than promised for every tool.
