WordPress & WooCommerce · Cape Town

You probably already know
your website is not doing its job.

Maybe it was built years ago and never properly maintained. Maybe it was redesigned twice and still doesn’t rank, doesn’t convert, and takes forever to load. Maybe it looks fine on the surface — but quietly underperforms where it matters.

A website is not a design project. It is a business tool. And like any business tool, it needs to be built by someone who understands what it is actually supposed to do.

The platform question

Why WordPress.
Every time.

We build on WordPress because it gives you control over the things that actually matter: SEO, performance, flexibility, and long-term ownership of your own site.

Wix and Squarespace are easier to launch. They are not better for businesses that need to scale, rank, and evolve over time. Those platforms feel simple early on — right up until the limits start costing you traffic, visibility, and flexibility.

We have been building on WordPress since 2007. We know where it breaks, how to prevent it, and how to build sites that perform properly instead of just looking good in a proposal.

What we build

Four types of project.
All built the same way.

SEO-first from the first decision. Not added on afterwards when the site is already live.

Business websites

WordPress business sites

Built for performance, SEO, and lead generation. Mobile-first. Fast. Clean architecture. Built to rank and built to convert — not just built to look good in a screenshot.

eCommerce

WooCommerce stores

WooCommerce builds with proper product architecture, category structure, schema, checkout flow, and performance tuning. Built around how your customers actually shop.

Rebuilds

Site rebuilds & migrations

If your current site is slow, broken, or built on a platform holding you back, we assess what is worth keeping and rebuild properly. Clean migrations with SEO value protected.

Optimisation

Technical fixes & performance

Core Web Vitals, speed, mobile responsiveness, crawlability, plugin conflicts, security. The unglamorous work that keeps a site performing after launch.

What makes it different

SEO built in.
Not bolted on.

Most agencies treat the build and the SEO as separate conversations. We do not. Every site we build is planned with SEO in mind from the first decision — URL structure, page hierarchy, heading logic, speed, schema, internal linking, image optimisation.

Not added on afterwards. Not handed over to someone else after launch. Built in.

A beautiful site that does not rank is a very expensive brochure.

We have seen what happens when someone builds first and thinks about SEO later. Fixing it afterwards is usually slower, messier, and more expensive than doing it properly the first time.

What’s included in every build

SEO-optimised URL structure and page hierarchy from day one

Proper heading structure mapped to keyword intent

Schema markup — Organisation, LocalBusiness, Product where applicable

Page speed optimisation and Core Web Vitals work before launch

Google Search Console and GA4 set up and verified

Title tags and meta descriptions written for every page

Internal linking strategy implemented before launch

XML sitemap submitted to Search Console on launch day

The process

How a build works.

01

Discovery

We start by understanding your business, your customers, and what the site actually needs to do. Not what looks good in a portfolio — what helps your specific audience take action.

02

Architecture and planning

URL structure, page hierarchy, content planning, keyword mapping. Before a line of code is written, the foundations are right. This is where most builds go wrong — by skipping it.

03

Build

WordPress with Divi, built mobile-first, speed-optimised, and tested across devices. You get full ownership and admin access. No vendor lock-in. No system you need us to call every time you want to change a heading.

04

SEO foundation

Every page launches with proper titles, meta descriptions, headings, schema, and Search Console submission. Not an optional extra. Built in as standard.

05

Handover

You get a site you can actually manage. We train you on what you need to know and document what was built. No mystery setup. No unnecessary dependency.

A note on cheap builds

About Brett.

We get calls from businesses whose sites were built by someone who “knows WordPress.” The friend of a friend. The side-hustle developer. The agency that quietly handed the work off after the sale.

It usually looks the same…

The site looks fine. But it is slow. It does not rank. Plugins have not been updated in years. Images are massive. Nobody knows who has admin access. And the person who built it is nowhere to be found.

So eventually, we get the call.

Cheap is expensive. Especially when the rebuild costs more than doing it properly would have in the first place.

If you are going to invest in a website, invest in one that works.

Common questions

Questions worth asking.

How much does a WordPress website cost?

It depends on the scope. A straightforward business site is a different project from a WooCommerce store with hundreds of products. We scope properly before quoting — no ballpark numbers that double later. Start with a conversation.

How long does a build take?

Usually four to twelve weeks depending on complexity. We commit to realistic timelines and we meet them. We do not start eight projects at once and quietly deprioritise yours.

Do you do ongoing maintenance?

Yes. WordPress needs maintenance — updates, backups, security monitoring, and performance checks. We offer care plans for clients who want their site looked after properly after launch. Left alone long enough, a WordPress site will eventually break.

Can you rebuild my existing site without losing SEO?

Yes — if it is planned properly. A bad migration can destroy years of SEO value overnight. We handle migrations carefully, preserving URL structure, redirects, and the signals that matter.

Do I need a new site or just fixes?

The honest answer requires looking at what you have. A Site Audit will tell you whether your current site is salvageable or whether a rebuild is the more sensible path. We’ll tell you the truth either way.

Not sure whether to rebuild or fix?

Start with a diagnosis.

A Site Audit will tell you what is worth keeping, what is costing you rankings, and what the right next step is — whether that is a rebuild, a migration, or a targeted set of fixes.
