Custom WordPress builds

Custom-built, lean by default. No inherited bloat, no compromises.

Most WordPress sites are assembled from themes and plugins until they work well enough. BespokeForge engineers them instead. A clean custom build, hand-coded or on a page builder when it fits the project, always with a custom CSS framework and every piece of content driven from a structured backend. Fast to load, maintainable by any competent developer, and built to last.

The work

Built lean, and editable without a developer.

What it includes

  • Custom build, hand-coded or on a page builder, with a custom CSS framework and zero inherited bloat
  • All content from a structured, SCF-powered backend (custom post types and fields)
  • Performance baseline engineered in from the ground up
  • Mobile-first, accessibility-compliant markup
  • Admin environment configured for your editorial workflow
  • Staging environment with tested deployment process
  • Full technical documentation

What changes for the business

  • A speed budget agreed in the scope, and measured at handover
  • Admin your non-technical team can manage confidently
  • No plugin dependencies for core functionality
  • Codebase a future engineer can read without a handover call

How it runs

From the audit to a system you own.

  1. The audit

    €450, fixed. Twenty-five minutes first, free. The written record is yours whatever you decide.

  2. The build

    A scope and a price agreed before work starts.

  3. Operate

    A retainer keeps the engineer who built or took on the system on it, for as long as the business depends on it.

Questions

Questions this usually comes down to

Yes. The audit records what is there, then the work is taken on as it stands or rebuilt where it has to be.
You do: the access, the documentation and the code are yours.
It is scoped from the audit and quoted then, before any work starts.
