WordPress Development Packages for Fast, SEO-Ready Builds
WordPress builds scoped for performance and maintainability. Plugin count is a design decision rather than an accident — most slow WordPress sites are slow because nobody ever made that call deliberately.
- Performance budgets up front: Core Web Vitals targets agreed before development starts, with plugin and script auditing throughout the build.
- SEO-ready foundations: Clean heading hierarchy, crawlable navigation, template-level schema and no builder-generated markup bloat.
- Maintenance and handover: Documented stack, staging workflow and an update policy so the site stays fast after launch.
Not sure this is the right package?
This is one package within Web Development Packages. If the scope here does not match your situation, the sibling packages below usually do — and the full service page explains the work in detail before any pricing conversation. Our published research covers the measurement approach behind all of it.
Why builds are quoted, not sold by page count
Page-count pricing treats a contact form and a multi-step configurator as the same unit of work. What actually drives a WordPress build is the number of custom templates, the integrations behind them, and how much of the existing site has to survive the move.
We publish fixed pricing for SEO because that scope is genuinely repeatable. This one is not, and quoting it from a table would mean either overcharging the simple version or under-delivering the complex one. So it is scoped on a call instead.
What actually drives the cost
- Custom templates required, versus reusing a well-built pattern library
- Third-party integrations — CRM, payment, booking, ERP, each with its own failure modes
- Migration scope, if content is moving from another platform
- Performance budget, agreed before design rather than discovered at launch
- Editor experience — how much your team needs to change without a developer
What we need before quoting
- Access to your current site and hosting
- A list of integrations that must keep working
- Your top-performing URLs, so they are protected
- Who maintains the site after launch
What happens on the call. Thirty minutes. We look at your data together and tell you what we would do first. If the honest answer is that this is not the right service for your situation, or that you do not need an agency at all, we will say so — see how we work for the kind of work we decline. Full detail on the service itself is on the WordPress Development Services page.
