How much does a WordPress website cost to build?

The price of WordPress websites Melbourne built varies wildly and differs to a WordPress website built overseas. Our team are Melbourne WordPress developers with over 20 years experience in WordPress, and are coders not designers (we have dedicated WordPress website designers for that!). So you pay more than a junior team or offshore development.

Other factors include the complexity of the design, the number of features, and any additional services required. If a brand guideline is available, is content (copywriting services) are required, and more.

We offer customised pricing based on your specific needs. As a guide, for WordPress theme development, you are looking at prices starting from $10k, up to $100k+ for enterprise level websites and beyond. Each website brief is unique, which is why we don't offer packages. We can work to all budgets, and timelines. To discuss how much a WordPress website might cost for your business, book in a call with our team.

What services do you offer as a WordPress development agency?

We offer a comprehensive range of WordPress development services, including custom website design and development, theme customisation, plugin development, e-commerce (Woocommerce) solutions, website management and more.

How long does it take to build a website?

The timeline for developing a WordPress website varies based on the complexity and specific requirements of the project. On average, a standard business website takes 6-8 weeks to complete, while more complex projects may take longer. If you are looking for an eCommerce website, this can add 2 weeks to the timeline as it's more complex than a standard business website. If copywriting services are required, this can add to the timeline also. The best approach is to discuss your required timeline with your WordPress agency.

We do not build on pre-existing themes; each website is uniquely crafted to ensure it aligns seamlessly with your brand and other marketing materials, and follows best practice UX/UI.

Do I get a custom WordPress website that we own?

Absolutely. We deliver a fully custom WordPress website tailored to your needs. Upon project completion, we hand over the entire website, including the database and code base, ensuring you have full ownership and control. This aligns with our commitment to ensuring our clients own all their digital assets.

What is your WordPress development process?

  2. Wireframes: We create blueprints for your website's layout and structure.
  3. Design: Our team designs a mobile-first, user-centric website that reflects your brand.
  4. Development: We build the website, integrate custom components, and conduct extensive testing.
  5. Testing and Sign-off: You review the website on a staging site before final approval.
  6. Launch: After final approval, we launch your website.
