Custom WordPress Websites for Leeds Businesses
We’re a WordPress web design agency in Leeds, building custom WordPress websites for businesses that want a site their own team can edit and grow. WordPress runs a large share of the web, which means plenty of developers, plugins, and long-term support behind it.
A WordPress site can still be fully bespoke. We design around your brand, build a custom theme, and keep the platform easy to manage. If you already have a design, or a theme you have bought, we develop it for you.
Whether you need WordPress website design in Leeds for a new site or a WordPress developer in Leeds for a rebuild, our Leeds team works with you from first sketch to launch.

Our WordPress Build Process
Here is how our WordPress project runs, from planning to launch and support.
Planning
We agree with your goals, content, and features, then decide whether to build a custom theme or use your own.
Design
We design the key pages, or work from your existing design, and agree on the look with you before building.
Theme Build
We build the theme, set up only the plugins you need, and configure the editor so content is easy to update.
Content and Testing
We add your content, migrate anything from your old site, and test speed, security, and mobile layouts before launch.
Launch and Training
We launch the site, train your team to edit it, and stay on for updates, backups, and ongoing support after launch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions we hear most about building on WordPress.
Why choose WordPress for my business website?
WordPress is flexible, widely supported, and easy for non-developers to manage. You can edit pages yourself, add features with plugins, and hire any WordPress developer later, so you are never locked in to one agency. It suits most business sites, from small brochure sites to large content-heavy ones.
Can you build a custom WordPress design, not just a theme?
Yes. We can design a bespoke site from scratch and build it as a custom WordPress theme. If you already have a design, we build it. If you have bought a theme, we can set it up and customise it. The platform stays WordPress either way.
Is WordPress secure?
WordPress is secure when it is looked after. Most problems come from out-of-date plugins and weak logins. We limit plugins to what you need, set up backups and login protection, and offer ongoing maintenance and security checks so updates never get missed.
Can you move my site from another platform to WordPress?
Yes. We migrate content, images, and pages from platforms like Wix, Squarespace, or an older site. We also set up redirects from old URLs to the new ones, which protects your existing search rankings. Timelines depend on how much content there is to move.
Will I be able to edit the site myself?
Yes. We set up the WordPress editor so you can update text, images, and pages without code, and we train your team before launch. If you would rather not handle updates, we can look after them for you after the site goes live.
How long does a WordPress build take?
Most WordPress sites take between 3 to 6 months from discovery to launch. Timelines depend on the number of pages, whether the design is custom or supplied, and how much content needs migrating. We will give you a realistic timeline once we have scoped your project.
