Selected work
Coffy / Brand, packaging and online store
From brand identity
to online store
We built Coffy’s WordPress store as part of its brand and packaging project, so the shop online looks like the cups on the counter.
Built for the people who update it
Your team adds products, posts news and fixes service details all the time. We build the editing side so those changes don’t need a developer or a redesign.
That means proper content types, templates and user roles set up for how your business works, and a maintenance plan settled before handover.
A new WordPress site, or a better one
If you already have a WordPress site, we look at what’s there first and tell you what to keep, fix or rebuild.
01
Content set up properly
Products, team members, case studies and news each get their own type and fields, so editors fill in a form instead of fighting a page builder.
Custom post types / Fields / Menus
02
Reusable templates
We turn the approved design into WordPress templates and components. Reusable patterns keep pages consistent, with room for the content and functions that set your business apart.
Page templates / Reusable components / Responsive implementation
03
Forms and integrations
Enquiry forms, CRMs, booking tools and payment gateways. We connect what you use and test that every form actually arrives.
Forms / CRM and email / Payments
04
Handover and maintenance
We set out how content updates, technical maintenance and support will be handled. Backups, software updates and ongoing improvements are covered by a care plan that says who does what.

A public website and a portal for suppliers
A public corporate website on WordPress and an authenticated portal for suppliers and candidates.
Working together
Your editors are part of the plan
Whoever updates the site after launch is involved from the start.
01
Understand the content
We look at what you have: the current site or the brief, what you publish, what it connects to and who does what.
02
Plan the build
We settle the content types, templates, features and what moves across from the old site.
03
Build and train
We build it, connect it and walk your team through editing it.
04
Hand over and care
Complete the launch checks and handover. Confirm the plan for updates, backups, support and future improvements.
Ongoing WordPress support
Someone to call after launch
With ongoing support we handle updates, content changes and new features, so the site doesn’t slowly fall apart.

Yes, that’s the point. Your team edits the pages and fields set up for them, and we show them how.
Yes. We look at the theme, plugins, content and integrations first, then tell you whether it needs fixing or rebuilding.
Yes. We built Coffy’s store on WordPress. Your products, payments and delivery decide how the store is set up.
Updates, backups, security and support, in a care plan that says who does what.
Usually 4 to 16 weeks. The biggest factor is how quickly content and feedback come back. You get a timeline with dates before we start.
It depends on the pages, features and plugins it needs. Every hour is scoped and quoted before work starts.
The pages and fields your team will edit, the guidance they need and who owns technical maintenance. It also covers administrator access, backups, updates and how to get support. Training, hosting and ongoing changes are set out in the project scope, so you know exactly what’s included.
Not if the move is done properly. We list every page that brings in traffic, redirect old addresses to their new ones and check it all before launch. Nobody can promise rankings, but this is how you protect them.
We look at your current site or plans, talk through what you need to publish and connect, and tell you how we’d do it. It takes 30 minutes.
What does your team
need to publish next?
Bring your current site and a list of what’s bugging you. We’ll tell you how we’d fix it.
A 30-minute call. No brief needed.
