WORDPRESS DEVELOPER PERTH

WordPress developer in Perth, for sites you can grow and edit yourself

We design and build new WordPress websites for Perth businesses. Written, designed and built in-house by the founders, set up for search from the first wireframe, with a back end your team can update without breaking the layout. It suits a site with a lot of content, or a business that already runs WordPress and wants to stay on it.

Design and build
by Harvie and Kobi.

A WordPress website with us covers the copy, design, build and launch.
We do the design in-house, so there is no handoff gap between a designer who draws a picture and a developer who tries to interpret it. The person laying out the page is the person building it, which is why the spacing survives contact with real content.
WORDPRESS BUILDS

A WordPress site we have built

How a WordPress build runs with us

Three stages, in this order. Your content and your goals come first, the design second.
01

The questions

A short list of written questions about your business, your customers and what the site has to do. The copy comes from your answers, not a template.
SEE OUR WEB WORK
02

The build

Pages designed and built on WordPress around your real copy and photos, set up so your team edits the content, not the layout.

03

The launch

Old addresses redirected to the new pages, Search Console set up, and a handover video so your team can update the site themselves.

What every WordPress website needs

WordPress can run almost any kind of site, which is also why so many WordPress sites end up slow and hard to edit. The difference is in how the build is set up.
On every WordPress site we build, you get:
+
a page for each service, so every service has its own page that can rank for it
+
content types set up for what you publish, such as services, projects, team members or blog posts
+
an enquiry form that asks for what you need to quote, landing in the right inbox
+
a layout built for phones, not a shrunken desktop page
+
only the plugins the site needs, so there is less to update and less to break
+
Google Search Console set up at launch, so you can see how the site is found from day one
And a site your team can add pages and posts to, without ringing us every time.
BIG CONTENT SITES

WordPress

Suits a site with a big content operation or custom needs, as long as someone maintains it. It needs a host, plus caching and security plugins that have to be kept up to date. Embody Family Wellness runs on WordPress.

NO PLUGINS TO MAINTAIN

Webflow

Suits a service business that wants a fast site with no plugins to maintain. Hosting, SSL and backups are included.

SELL ONLINE

Shopify

If you sell products online, we build the store in Shopify.

We tell you which platform fits before we quote, even when it is not WordPress.

What a WordPress website costs

Small business websites start from $3k

The price depends on how many pages you need, what content types the site has and which features it needs. We scope it in writing before anything starts, so you know the number before you commit. Our guide to what a website costs in Perth breaks down the rest.

founder-led
Less handover.
Less disconnect.
More aligned growth.

Work directly with
the founders.

You deal directly with the two people who started Enkindle. Harvie Williams leads search and the website, and Kobi Martin leads paid media.
‍
Neither hands the work to a junior or an account manager, so the person who finds the problem is the person who fixes it.

get found

Getting your WordPress website found on Google

Built for search from the first wireframe

Because SEO is our main lane, we build every WordPress site with search in mind from the first wireframe, rather than adding an SEO plugin at the end and hoping. It is how we approach all our web design in Perth.

If your customers come from a local area, local SEO and the Google map pack are usually where the calls come from.

For trade businesses we also run marketing for tradies in Perth, including Google Ads for tradies, when you want enquiries while the new site builds up in search.

CLEAN URLS

Short, readable slugs set before build.

ONE H1

Heading order that matches the page.

ALT TEXT

Images described, and compressed.

INTERNAL LINKS

Pages linked to the services they support.

SCHEMA

Structured data built into the template.

All five are decided in the first wireframe, not retrofitted after launch.

Working with us on a WordPress website in Perth.

We are a founder-led agency in Perth, Western Australia. You deal directly with the founders designing and building your site, and we show you real pages in the browser rather than flat mockups.
A typical build runs as:
a short discovery on what the site has to do commercially
structure and sitemap
design
build
content load
a review round
launch
What we need from you is decisions and content. What slows projects down is almost never the build, it is waiting on copy approval or photography that has not been booked.

What a WordPress website with us can include

Depending on the site, a build can include:
responsive layout across desktop, tablet and mobile
service, project and blog pages you can add to yourself
enquiry and contact forms that land in the right inbox
page titles, meta descriptions and canonical tags written rather than auto-generated from the page name
sitemap, robots and Open Graph data
301 redirects from your old site's addresses
image compression, so the page is not slow to load on a phone
alt text and proper heading order
copy, photos and blog posts editable without touching the layout
a handover video so your team can keep it up to date
testimonials

Questions

WordPress website questions Perth businesses ask.

How much does a WordPress website cost?+
Small business websites start from $3k. The final price depends on how many pages you need, the content types the site has and the features it needs. We scope the work and quote it before we start, so you know the number before anything gets built.
Do I own the website when it is finished?+
Yes. We set builds up so:
+
the site sits in your own account, not ours
+
the domain stays in your name
+
hosting is billed to you directly rather than routed through us
You can bring in another developer, take it in-house or keep working with us. We build sites you can leave with, because the alternative is a client who stays out of inconvenience rather than because the work is good.
Can I update the WordPress site myself?+
Yes. Pages, services and blog posts are set up so you edit the content without touching the layout. We record a handover video showing how. Structural changes, new page types and design work are where you would come back to us.
Should my website be on WordPress or Webflow?+
It depends on the site. WordPress suits a big content operation or custom needs, as long as someone maintains it. Webflow suits a service business that wants a fast site with no plugins to maintain. We tell you which one fits before we quote.
Do I need plugins on a WordPress site?+
Some. Caching and security are the usual two, plus anything the site specifically needs. Every plugin is something to keep updated, so we keep the list to what the site needs.
Can you rebuild my existing website on WordPress?+
Usually yes. We go through what you have, keep what is worth keeping and rewrite the rest, then redirect the old site's addresses to the new pages so what you have already earned in Google carries across.
Will a new website hurt my Google rankings?+
It will if the migration is done carelessly, and that is one of the biggest risks in any rebuild. We:
+
map every existing URL to its new equivalent
+
set 301 redirects before launch
+
keep the pages that already earn traffic
+
check indexing after go-live rather than assuming it worked
Done carefully, the aim is for what you have already earned to carry across intact, and a faster, better structured site gives you a better base to build on from there.
