A business website has two jobs: get found, and convince. Everything else is decoration. I build sites that are fast, readable and indexable, and that you can edit yourself without breaking the layout.
I work with WordPress because it is the best trade-off between freedom and cost. Depending on the project that ranges from a hand-written custom theme to a full WooCommerce store. What I avoid is stacking twenty plugins until the site is slow and impossible to maintain.
Performance is not something bolted on at the end. This site loads in under half a second, with no page builder and no jQuery. That is the same standard I apply to your project.
What people usually ask
Will I be able to edit the site myself?
Yes, and that is planned from the start. You get a short training session and documentation.
What happens to our search rankings during a redesign?
Redirects are mapped before launch. That is exactly what separates a clean redesign from an expensive one.
