A landing page takes 2–3 weeks. A corporate site runs 4–8 weeks. A WooCommerce store with custom functionality needs 6–12 weeks. We finalize the timeline during discovery. ### Do you use page builders like Elementor or Divi? No. Every site is a custom-coded theme using ACF and native WordPress APIs. Page builders add bloat that slows your site down and limits what developers can do later. Our approach delivers faster, cleaner, more maintainable code. ### Can you redesign my existing WordPress site? Yes. We start with a full audit — speed, SEO, UX, and content — then rebuild with a new design while preserving your URL structure and search rankings through proper redirect mapping. ### Will I be able to update content myself? Absolutely. We build the CMS editing experience with your team in mind. Custom fields, intuitive post types, and a training session so your editors never need a developer for routine content changes. ### Do you offer ongoing maintenance after launch? Every project includes 30 days of free support. After that, we offer monthly retainers covering WordPress core and plugin updates, backups, uptime monitoring, and security patches. ## Ready to Build a WordPress Site That Performs?
