Faster performance, stronger security, lower long-term costs, and a website built to support your business for years to come. Custom-coded sites don't rely on plugins to do basic things, so there's far less bloat weighing the site down — and nothing to constantly patch. WordPress requires ongoing updates to core, themes, and plugins; skip one and you're a target. That's how sites get hijacked and quietly redirected to spam. Our sites will never have that problem, and they load faster too.

It depends on what you're working with. If it's modern and well-built, I can often bring it into the management system as-is. But most existing WordPress sites are held together with a dozen-plus plugins, and maintaining that setup means I'm putting out fires instead of growing your business. In those cases, it's typically more cost-effective to rebuild from scratch with clean, custom code designed for performance from day one. Either way, I'll assess it honestly and tell you which path makes more sense.

I don't build new sites on WordPress — every project I take on is hand-coded, which gives you the edge on load speed, security, and long-term maintainability. If you're currently stuck maintaining a WordPress site, a full rebuild often costs less upfront than what you'd otherwise spend keeping WordPress patched and running over the next couple of years.

Mainly small businesses — roughly 1 to 25 employees. Contractors, healthcare practices, professional services, and local retail tend to be the best fit. If you need a lean 5-to-10-page site that loads fast, ranks well, and turns visitors into leads or customers, that's exactly the kind of work this is built for.

No — the site is part of the ongoing service, not a one-time deliverable. That said, your domain and any assets you own stay yours.

Yes, always. Even if we registered it on your behalf, it's transferred fully into your name the moment you cancel. No holding anything hostage.
