WordPress Built to
Last and Perform
Not Just Launch
43.5% of the web runs WordPress. Most of those sites are slow, insecure, and maintained by whoever the client could find cheapest at the time. We have been building and maintaining WordPress sites since 2012. Some of those sites are still with us. That is the point.
A WordPress Development Company That Builds for the Long Term
Most businesses start a WordPress project without knowing which WordPress they need. WordPress.com is a hosted platform managed by Automattic — affordable, restricted, and right for simple personal sites or small business presences with no custom functionality. WordPress.org is the open-source software installed on your own hosting — you own everything, can install any plugin, and have no platform restrictions. When we build a WordPress site, we always mean WordPress.org. That distinction matters for what you can and cannot do.
WordPress is not a build-and-forget platform. It requires updates — core, themes, plugins — on a schedule, because vulnerabilities are discovered constantly and patches are released in response. A WordPress site that has not been updated in six months is a security liability. We have maintained client sites continuously since 2012. The longest-running site in our portfolio, Vakmangids, has been actively maintained since 2019. That continuity is not accidental — it is what happens when a team builds something they intend to own the quality of, not just deliver and invoice.
We build WordPress sites for law firms, healthcare practices, eCommerce brands, agencies, SaaS companies, and individual business owners. For eCommerce, we use WooCommerce. For ongoing protection, we run WordPress security monitoring. For sites that have been compromised, we handle WordPress malware removal. For everything else, we build from a scope document, not a template library.
In-House Only
No WordPress freelancers. No subcontractors. Every developer is a direct CV Infotech employee. Your site credentials and client data stay within our team.
Built for Performance
PageSpeed 85+ on mobile is our baseline target, not a premium add-on. Every build includes caching setup, image optimisation, and Core Web Vitals review.
Security as Standard
Security hardening is included in every build: login protection, file permissions, security headers, and malware scanning. Not an optional extra.
Long-Term Partnership
Our average client relationship exceeds 3 years. We build sites we intend to maintain, not hand over and move on from.
Everything WordPress, In-House
Custom WordPress Themes
Bespoke themes built from scratch using modern PHP, the Gutenberg block editor, and your brand system. No page builder dependencies. Clean, fast, maintainable code.
Custom WordPress Plugins
Purpose-built plugins for functionality no off-the-shelf plugin covers — booking systems, member portals, REST API integrations, CPT-based data structures, and WooCommerce extensions.
WooCommerce Development
Standard catalogues, subscription billing, wholesale pricing, multi-currency, and custom checkout flows. We have built WooCommerce stores since WooCommerce's early versions. Published plugin on WordPress.org.
Performance Optimisation
PageSpeed audits, caching configuration, image optimisation, database cleanup, CDN setup, and plugin auditing. We have taken sites from scores of 35 to 88 on mobile. Every new build targets 85+.
WordPress Security
Login hardening, Wordfence or Sucuri setup, malware scanning, security headers, and emergency response to active compromises.
Maintenance and Support
Monthly updates, daily backups, uptime monitoring, and priority support from $80/month.
The WordPress Company That Is Still There 3 Years Later
Francisco Escobar has been our client since 2012. That is not a testimonial — that is a track record. The reason long-term relationships happen in WordPress development is not the initial build. It is what happens when something breaks at 2am the night before a product launch.
- Need the lowest possible price and are willing to accept lower quality as the trade-off
- Want to manage the WordPress admin yourself and only need occasional help
- Are looking for a one-page site that a DIY builder can produce in a weekend
If any of those fit, we can point you to the right tools. Squarespace or WordPress.com free tier are genuinely right for some businesses at some stages.
