WordPress development

WordPress development services for business websites

PlusTechnology handles WordPress development for businesses that need fast, secure websites their team can edit without calling a developer: custom themes, Elementor and Gutenberg builds, custom plugins, speed fixes and ongoing care.

In short

PlusTechnology is a WordPress development studio that builds custom WordPress websites, themes and plugins for small and mid-sized businesses. A typical WordPress development project for a 5–10 page business site takes 2–4 weeks and usually costs $800–$2,500. Every build includes mobile-first design, technical SEO, speed optimisation and a handover so you can edit content yourself.

WordPress powers more than 40% of all websites because it is flexible, SEO-friendly and easy to update. The problem is that a lot of WordPress development produces slow sites, bloated with plugins and hard to change. We do the opposite: lean sites with a short, well-chosen plugin list and a clean editing experience.

Whether you need a new website, a redesign, a custom feature or someone to fix a broken site, our WordPress development team has shipped hundreds of projects since 2016, and you work directly with the senior developers building yours. Read more about the platform itself on WordPress.org.

Capabilities

WordPress development: what we build

Custom WordPress websites

Business sites, service sites and personal brands designed around your goals, built with a block theme or Elementor Pro.

Custom themes

Lightweight themes built from your Figma design or ours, with reusable blocks so you can create new pages without breaking the layout.

Custom plugins & integrations

Booking, quoting, membership, CRM, ERP and API integrations built as clean, maintainable plugins.

Speed optimisation

Core Web Vitals fixes: image optimisation, caching, script clean-up and hosting advice that make slow sites fast again.

Fixes & migrations

Plugin conflicts, white screens, hacked sites, PHP upgrades and moves between hosts with zero downtime.

Care plans

Monthly updates, backups, uptime monitoring and small changes, so your site stays secure without you thinking about it.

How we work

From brief to launch

  1. Discovery call

    We agree on goals, scope, timeline and budget, and you get a written plan with milestones.

  2. Design & build

    We work on a staging site and share progress every few days so there are no surprises.

  3. Test & launch

    Speed, mobile, forms, payments and SEO are checked before going live.

  4. Support

    Post-launch fixes are included, with optional monthly care plans.

How long does it take to build a WordPress website?

Most business websites take 2–4 weeks from kickoff to launch. The biggest factor is how quickly content and feedback arrive.

Do you use Elementor or custom themes?

Both. We use Elementor Pro when your team wants drag-and-drop editing, and lightweight block themes when speed and long-term maintenance matter most. We recommend the right option during the discovery call.

Can you fix or speed up my existing WordPress site?

Yes. We fix plugin conflicts, errors and hacked sites, and we optimise slow sites for Core Web Vitals, usually within 2–5 days.

Will I be able to edit the website myself?

Yes. Every site is built so non-technical staff can edit text, images and pages, and we include a recorded handover video.
