WordPress website development for web designers
I collaborate with web designers who are ready to ditch the development, lift design limitations and alleviate the stress of building custom websites.
I'm already ready to book!



Is your lack of coding knowledge holding you back from designing the websites that you actually want to design?
Do you wish you could offer web design as a service but solely focus on the design element not the technical stresses that come with it?
Are you fed up of trying to tweak pre-made website templates to make them look a certain way? Or fed up with the limitations of your website builder of choice?
Have you ever had to turn down a website project because the client requested to use a website platform you aren’t familiar with? Or because you didn’t feel like you had the skills to bring their vision to life?
If you answered yes to any of the above, then my WordPress Website Development service is the solution you’ve been searching for.
With my signature development service, I’ll take your website designs and transform them into a fully-functioning WordPress website that not only looks amazing, but that is also highly-optimised, strategic, and easy to use.

What’s included in WordPress Website Development?
While the specifics of what’s included will vary from project to project, the following are included in all of my projects as standard:
- A fully bespoke WordPress theme
- Custom and styled WordPress blocks
- Responsive, cross-browser optimisation
- Technical SEO & speed optimisation
- Client installation, training & assistance
- 30 days of post-handover support
A fully bespoke WordPress theme
Using your designs, I will develop a completely bespoke WordPress theme for your client to use on their website.
I will set up and build out all of the pages and functionality that the website requires. This can include features such as blogs, e-commerce, membership functionality, directory functionality, affiliate shops, front-end form and more!

Custom and styled WordPress blocks
Every WordPress I build utilises the WordPress block editor to make it quick and easy for clients to edit their own content.
I create custom blocks based on your website designs, and I style the the default blocks in WordPress to match the rest of the branding and website.
By using the block editor, we can avoid the need for slow, bulky third-party page builder plugins that can have a negative impact on the website’s performance.

Responsive, cross-browser optimisation
Websites need to look good and function well on different devices and in different browsers.
I will carry out extensive testing once the website is built to ensure that it is fully responsive and mobile-friendly, and that it works in all major modern browsers.
Technical SEO & speed optimisation
Organic search is a powerful way to get eyes on a website, so technical search engine optimisation is included in all projects as standard.
By using custom code, I create websites that are easy for search engines to read and that are fast to load.
Please note: this does not include tasks that would fall under “content SEO”, such as copywriting or keyword research.

Client installation, training & assistance
Once the website is complete, I will install it on your clients hosting account for them, ready for them to launch. If they’re new to WordPress, I can also assist with all things hosting and domains.
There’s nothing worse than owning a website you don’t know how to use! That’s why I create custom training videos for each website to show your clients exactly how to use their new website.

30 days of post-handover support
My support doesn’t end once the website has been handed over to the client!
All of my projects include 30 days of post-handover technical support to assist with any issues that may crop up once the website is in the client’s hands.
Clients will also get access to my exclusive, client-only WordPress support services if they require any additional website updates in the future, or if they are looking for someone to maintain their website on an ongoing basis.
Your Investment
From £4000
As every website is different, I will create a custom quote based on the client’s requirements.
The Development Process
- Enquire
- Proposal & Booking
- Design Approval
- Initial Stage
- Revisions
- Installation
- Training
- Post-Handover Support
Start by filling out my enquiry form. You’ll hear back from me within a couple of days, and from there we can arrange to have a call to discuss the project further.
After our call I’ll prepare and send over a proposal that outlines the project scope, costs and timeline. If you’re happy with the proposal, you’ll then receive my contract and invoice for the deposit. Once the deposit has been paid, the project will be secured in my schedule.
About 1 to 2 weeks before the development is due to start, you will share the website designs with me and I’ll review them to ensure that the designs match the project scope and that everything is possible to implement.
At this point, your client must sign off on the designs and confirm that they are happy for us to begin development.
This is my favourite part of the process; it’s time for me to turn your designs into a fully-functioning WordPress website!
The development phase typically takes 3 to 4 weeks, however it might be slightly longer than this if you require additional functionality.
Once I have completed the first draft of the website, I will send you a link to the sub-domain that I’ve built the website on ready for you to review and share with your client.
Each project includes two rounds of revisions, with each round of revisions lasting 1 week. Revisions are small tweaks to ensure that the website matches the design as closely as possible, and fixes to any issues with the website.
When the two rounds of revisions are complete and the final invoice has been paid, I can then get to work installing your client’s new website on their own hosting account. And if they don’t have website hosting sorted already, I can help with this too.
Now that your client has access to their new website, I will provide them with access to my private training website. Here they will find a collection of short videos that will teach them how to use their new website. Your client can work through these videos at their own pace and re-watch them as much as they like.
Once the website has been installed on the client’s hosting account, their 30 days of post-handover support will begin.
The new website is ready to launch, and I recommend that the client launches their new website during this 30 day period so I can be on hand to help with any teething issues.

Learn more about meFrequently Asked Questions
What do you require from me?
As you can imagine, there are quite a few assets and resources I will need from you, including page designs, a features and functionality guide, website copy and imagery. But don’t worry; I’ll share a list of exactly what I’ll need from you and your client once we have booked the project.
How long does the process take?
My process typically takes 6 weeks, but this may be longer depending on the functionality and features that are required.
These 6 weeks are broken down as:
– 3 weeks for the initial development
– 2 weeks for revisions
– 1 week for training and installation
How do I pay for my project?
To secure your project I take a 30% deposit upfront, and then 30% is due before the start date for development.
The final 40% is due once the website has been developed and the revision rounds are complete.This final payment must be paid in full before I will install the website on the client’s hosting account.
Do you provide my client with website hosting?
While I don’t offer website hosting services myself (I always think it’s best for the client to own their own hosting account!) I am more than happy to recommend a trusted hosting provider to your client. I assist them with the purchase of their hosting package, and I will help get everything set up for them, including connecting their domain and installing WordPress.
Will my client be able to edit their own website?
Of course! There’s nothing worse than owning a website that you can’t edit yourself!
I develop my WordPress website using the WordPress block editor which makes it easy for clients to edit and update their content as they wish. I’ll also provide your client with training videos so they’ll know exactly how to use their new website.
Will my client be able to change design elements themselves once the website is built?
Unfortunately not. If your client requires the ability to change design elements such as colours and fonts themselves, a custom WordPress website might not be the best option for them.
However, if the client does decide to change their branding after I’ve developed their website, I can make these changes for them through my WordPress Support services.
Do you work with international clients?
I’m based in the UK but I’m happy to work with you wherever you are in the world. Just bear in mind my office hours are GMT.
I’m not a designer. Can you develop my website for me?
I certainly can! If you already have a web designer in mind who you’d like to design your website for you, or if you are looking for recommendations for amazing designers I have collaborated with in the past, just drop me a message and let’s see what we can do.
