What We Do
We transform your site design and wireframes into an exciting new WordPress website. Each project usually involves the following steps:
1 Design Review & Costing
Supply either master files or high-quality PDF’s and we will review the design to ensure it’s buildable. When designs are confirmed, we’ll provide expected costs and timelines.
2 Theme Development
Once timelines and costs are agreed, we will begin building the overall WordPress theme.
This includes headers, footers, various page components and features.
3 Content Entry (Optional)
We can enter the site content and imagery for you. Alternatively we can provide logins and guidance to team members entering the content.
4 Pre-Launch Review
We’ll provide a link to the new site on a password protected demo server for your review. Feedback will be applied until the website is ready to go live.
5 Deployment
Once the demo site is approved, we’ll begin the deployment on to pre-selected server. If required, we can help you choose a reliable and cost effective server.
6 Ongoing Support & Maintenance
After the site is launched, we can revisit it to add content or features. Good practice is to keep all plugins and WordPress up to date, which we can oversee for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please browse our frequently asked questions, and feel free to reach out if you have any of your own.
How much does it cost?
Development costs are based on the time required to complete the build. Simple builds cost less than complex builds. That said, typically build costs are between $4-8k NZD.
How long does it take?
We require 2-3 weeks from delivery of approved artwork to build the first demo for you. Applying feedback usually takes 1 week. You are free to take as long as you like in the staging and content entry section of the build. Once the site is approved and moved to the production host, it can take a day to launch. If you have needs for a faster turnaround, we have an urgent service, please ask if this is the case.
What software should I use to create my design?
Our ideal software to work with is Photoshop, Illustrator or Sketch. We can however support other software, even PDF’s or Jpegs as long as we have all the assets (fonts, images, text etc).
What should I do to prepare the artwork files?
Using a grid system, consistent colours and consistent styles, treatments and spacing is very helpful and makes the build more efficient. Please ensure artwork is saved in RGB, and where possible vector. Images should be included at 2x size to enable crisp rendering on high dpi screens.
Do I need to provide both desktop and mobile designs?
Generally no. If you provide us a desktop view, we can resize the layout to fit mobile screens and use conventional treatments for mobile. If you have very specific requirements for your mobile version please advise and we can work through them.
Why is WordPress better than Squarespace or Webflow?
Many designers try Squarespace or Webflow and are frustrated with how difficult it is to achieve their desired results. While these platforms are useful for fast and simple sites, they quickly hit a technical ceiling and can’t be developed further. Also, these platforms own your site, instead of you or your client.
I’m not sure how to use WordPress, is it easy?
When the site is handed over, we will give you an unbranded screencast, that you can provide your client, and keep yourself. We focus on making the site administration as simple as possible, and once you understand the basics of WordPress it’s very easy to use. We are of course on hand for support too.
Can you register my domain? Or provide hosting?
We don’t offer domain name registration or hosting, but we can put you in touch with our preferred suppliers for both. This way, everything is in your name and you can contact them directly for any support too.
What happens if I need to make design changes after the project has started?
We can make design changes after the project has been started, but this is likely to incur additional costs. We will provide an estimate on a case by case basis. It’s always best if the artwork is completely final and client approved before we begin, to save any double-handling.
