We’re a WordPress agency for UK small businesses that want to edit their own website. You pay the same fixed prices as for any website we build, from £400, without London agency overheads, and a Starter site is usually live in around 2 weeks. We keep plugins to the essentials, so the site stays quick and there’s less to update.
Rule of thumb
WordPress
WordPress is the right choice when you want to change your own text, photos and pages without ringing anyone. The software is free and open source, almost any web developer can work on it, and most features a trade or clinic needs already exist as a plugin. The catch is upkeep: core, theme and plugin updates every month.
A custom build
A custom build suits a business that wants the fastest possible site and changes it once or twice a year, when going through a developer is no hardship. Our guide to choosing a website platform compares WordPress, a custom build and website builders side by side.
Murff’s Bakery is a home bakery in Washington, D.C. We built the owner’s first website on WordPress with Elementor in about two weeks, and she now updates her menu and photos herself.

Every WordPress site we build is set up for the person who’ll edit it, then for Google, then for the customer reading it on a phone.
We set the pages up so you can change text, photos and items such as menus or prices on your own. That’s how Murff’s Bakery works: the owner adds new bakes and menu items without calling us.
Every package is designed mobile-first, with an enquiry form that has spam protection.
Page titles, meta descriptions and a sitemap, with GA4 and Google Search Console set up before launch.
Growth adds a quote or booking form, with photo upload so customers can show you the job.
Business adds a blog and a reviews section. Growth adds local SEO setup with 10 citations.
Already have a WordPress site that’s slow, broken or out of date? We’ll look at it first, then quote each fix before we touch anything.
Our free website check covers 5 things, including speed on a phone, and comes back within 48 hours. Request a free website check.
A broken form, a slow homepage, a plugin that stopped working after an update. Each job gets a fixed quote before we start.
Once we know the site, Care (£25/mo) covers hosting, SSL, backups, updates and 30 minutes of edits a month. Care+ (£45/mo) doubles the edits and adds a monthly health report.
If the site is beyond patching, our website redesign service rebuilds it on the same packages and keeps your URLs.
A WordPress site that nobody updates gets slower and less secure every month. So we keep the plugin list short and plan the updates before the site goes live.
Every plugin is code someone has to update, and one more thing that can break after an update. We use the few a site needs, such as forms, SEO and backups, and leave the rest out.
We compress photos before they go on the site, as we did with Murff’s menu and gallery, and Business and Growth include speed optimisation. Cheap shared hosting makes WordPress slow on a phone, so we’ll steer you away from it.
WordPress core, theme and plugin updates need doing monthly, or the site slows down and becomes a security risk. Care does them for you for £25/mo, along with backups and SSL.
With us, the same as any of our websites: Starter is £400 (up to 5 pages), Business £750 and Growth £1,200, all fixed prices. Paid plugins you choose are extra. A Care plan to keep it updated is £25/mo, and it’s optional.
Yes, if you want to edit the site yourself and you’re happy to keep it updated. It’s free software, any WordPress developer can take it over, and plugins cover forms, booking and reviews. If you’d rather never touch the site and want the fastest pages possible, a custom build may suit you better.
Yes, and that’s the main reason to choose it. We set the pages up so you can change text, photos and things like menus or prices yourself. The owner of Murff’s Bakery, a home bakery in Washington, D.C., updates her menu and photos herself in Elementor, without calling us.
When it suits the site. We used Elementor for Murff’s Bakery because it lets the owner change pages visually. Page builders make editing easy but add weight to every page, so if speed on a phone matters more than visual editing, we’ll suggest building it another way and tell you why before you commit.
Yes. Start with a free website check, back within 48 hours. If the site needs work, we quote each job at a fixed price before we start. Once we’ve checked the site over, we can look after it on a Care plan from £25/mo.
Starter usually takes around 2 weeks, Business 3–4 weeks and Growth 4–6 weeks. Murff’s Bakery, a five-page WordPress site built with Elementor, took about two weeks from start to launch. Bigger sites with more pages or forms sit at the longer end.
