Frequently asked questions

Have a question about our custom WordPress websites? Browse the FAQs below, or get in touch and we'll give you a straight answer.
How custom is a custom WordPress website?

Every build starts from scratch. We design and develop the structure, components, and layouts specifically for your brand and content requirements. There are no pre-made templates or off-the-shelf themes involved. The result is a site that fits your content model precisely, rather than one you’ve had to adapt your content to fit.

Will my team be able to update the site easily?

Yes. We build with content editors in mind. You’ll get a clean content structure, reusable modules, and a training session so anyone on your team can update pages, publish content, and manage the site without needing developer help. If you’re on one of our support plans, we’re also available for anything more complex.

Do you use Bricks or Elementor? Why?

We primarily build with Bricks Builder. It produces cleaner, lighter front-end code than Elementor, loads faster, and is easier to maintain over time. It also gives us more precise control over markup and styling without the bloat that comes with feature-heavy page builders. That said, if your project requires Elementor or the native WordPress block editor, we can work with those too. We’ll recommend what’s right for your specific situation.

Can you rebuild our current site without losing content?

Yes. We can migrate pages, posts, media, menus, and custom content types, mapping them cleanly into the new build. For larger sites with complex content structures, we’ll audit what exists first and plan the migration before any development begins to make sure nothing is lost or broken in the process.

How long does a custom WordPress build take?

Most projects take 6 to 12 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on the size of the site, the number of stakeholders involved, and how quickly content and approvals are provided. We scope the timeline clearly at the start and flag any risks early so there are no surprises close to launch.

Do you build custom functionality if plugins are not suitable?

Yes. We create custom post types, custom fields, bespoke modules, API-connected tools, and custom plugins when off-the-shelf options are unreliable, create performance issues, or introduce unnecessary complexity. We’re cautious about plugin reliance as a rule and will always tell you if a plugin is the right call versus a cleaner custom solution.

Will the site be fast?

Yes. Performance is part of how we build, not something we optimise after the fact. This includes image compression and lazy loading, minimal and deferred script loading, clean markup, server-side caching, and a hosting environment configured for WordPress. We test performance before launch and can provide Core Web Vitals benchmarks on request.

Do you include mobile optimisation?

Yes. Every page, component, and layout is designed and tested across mobile, tablet, and desktop. We build mobile-first as a default, which means the experience on smaller screens is considered from the start rather than added as an afterthought.

Will our site be secure?

We build with security in mind throughout. This means minimal plugin reliance, clean and audited code, strong user role configuration, SSL, and a clear maintenance plan post-launch. All sites on our hosting and support plans receive ongoing security monitoring, regular core and plugin updates, and daily off-site backups.

What support do you offer after launch?

We offer ongoing hosting, maintenance, and support plans starting from $129 per month ex GST. These cover managed hosting, security monitoring, daily backups, core and plugin updates, and a monthly allocation of support tasks for content changes and technical requests. We also provide ad hoc development support for clients who need occasional help outside of a retainer.

Can WordPress handle enterprise-level projects?

Yes. WordPress powers a significant portion of the web, including large enterprise platforms. Our work for Domain Group across Pricefinder, Domain Insight, and Domain Marketing Hub demonstrates what’s possible with a well-architected WordPress build. The key is in how it’s structured. A well-built WordPress site with a modular component system, clean database architecture, and a proper hosting environment handles enterprise traffic and content volume without issue.

Do you work with existing WordPress sites or only new builds?

Both. We regularly take on existing WordPress sites for redesigns, performance improvements, security audits, and ongoing support. We’ll review your current build first to assess what’s worth keeping and what needs to change, then scope the work from there. We can also migrate sites from other platforms into WordPress if that’s the right move for your project.

What’s the difference between a custom WordPress build and a website package?

Our website packages are fixed-scope builds designed for small businesses with defined requirements and a set budget. They follow a structured process with a defined page count, design direction, and delivery timeline. A custom build has no predefined scope. It’s designed around your specific requirements, which may include complex integrations, bespoke functionality, custom UX flows, or enterprise content management needs. If you’re unsure which suits you, a discovery call will make it clear quickly.
