Service

WordPress done properly for the South African market

WordPress powers 43% of the world's websites — but most WordPress sites in South Africa are slow, poorly structured, and built on bloated page builders that hurt SEO and user experience.

We build WordPress sites the right way: custom themes (not generic templates), proper heading structure, optimised images, South African hosting options, and code that search engines can actually crawl.

Whether you need a business brochure site, a WooCommerce store, a blog with thousands of posts, or a membership platform — we scope and build it in WordPress where the platform genuinely fits the need.

FAQ

Practical answers after the atmosphere.

How much does a WordPress website cost in South Africa? +
A professionally built WordPress business site runs R15,000–R45,000. WooCommerce stores with payment integration and product setup run R25,000–R80,000. We quote fixed-price per project so there are no surprises.
Do you use Elementor or Divi? +
We do not. Page builders add significant page weight, reduce Core Web Vitals scores, and create maintenance headaches. We build custom themes with clean, fast code that outperforms page builder sites in search rankings.
Can you migrate an existing WordPress site to a new host? +
Yes. WordPress migrations — including those from poor-quality SA hosting to better-performing alternatives — are a standard service. We handle DNS, SSL, and post-migration testing.
How long does a WordPress site take to build? +
A standard business site takes 3–5 weeks. A WooCommerce store with payment integration and product upload takes 5–8 weeks. Timelines depend on how quickly content and images are supplied.
Do you do WordPress SEO? +
Yes. Every site we build includes on-page SEO setup — meta titles, descriptions, heading structure, schema markup, sitemap, and Search Console configuration. Ongoing SEO content is a separate engagement.
