Cheltenham, Gloucestershire
I build and look after WordPress sites that have to work.
No account managers, no hand-offs, no explaining your business twice. You talk to the developer who writes the code. Before the build, and eighteen months later when something breaks.

Uptime alert reaches me if a site drops, before your customers notice
Any time we have had an issue or glitch with the site, Chris has sorted it straight away, explained what has happened and then helped us look forward to make improvements.

A few recent projects
A handful of the sites I look after.
A small selection, not the full list. Several of these went live years ago and are still on a care plan, which is the part that matters. Anyone can launch a site.

Built & maintained
Hire an agency and you meet a salesperson.
Then you brief an account manager, and your site gets built by whoever is free that week. Three layers between the person who understands your business and the person writing the code.
Here there are none. That limits how much work I take on, and it’s deliberate.
We meet first
Usually over a coffee in Cheltenham. Free, no obligation, and it stops us both wasting time.
A written quote
Based on real scope, before anything starts. Not a day rate that quietly drifts.
You own it
Built on WordPress so you can edit your own content. Training included if you want it.
I stay afterwards
Every build includes 90 days of Essential care and 30 days of free technical support.
What I do
Everything I do, and what it costs.
I take on a small number of clients, which is the only way one person can do this well. Each of these has its own page with the full detail and pricing.
WordPress Care
From £49 a month
Updates applied, backups taken, uptime watched, and a person to call. Urgent issues answered the same working day, or within the hour on the top plan.
SEO
From £199 a month
Your site audited automatically every month, and the problems fixed rather than emailed to you as a list.
Hacked site rescue
Fixed £200
Cleaned, the hole closed, every credential rotated and you off Google’s blacklist. No fix, no fee.
Websites
From £300
Built on WordPress so you can edit it yourself. Every build includes 90 days of care and 30 days of support.
Apps & tooling
Quoted per project
Native iOS and Android, plus add-ons for the tool most professional WordPress developers use every day.
WordPress training
£395, or free with a build
Step-by-step guides recorded on your own site, so the manual matches what you actually see.
Been hacked?
Fixed £200 to clean it, find how they got in, close that hole, rotate every credential and get you off Google’s blacklist. Most sites are back the same working day. And if I can’t fix it, you don’t pay.
Questions I get asked first
What does a WordPress site cost?
From £300 for a three-page template build, £500 for four pages with a domain, £700 customised. Bigger projects quoted individually.
Do I have to move my hosting?
No. Care plans work on whatever you already use. If the hosting is the problem I’ll say so. No Problem Hosting can take it from £80 a year.
Can you take over someone else’s build?
Most sites I look after were built by someone else. I review yours first and tell you straight what condition it’s in.
Only Cheltenham businesses?
Plenty of work is fully remote. Phone, Teams, Google Chat. The whole operation is paperless, so location is rarely the constraint.
Tell me what you’re trying to do.
I’ll tell you straight whether I can help, roughly what it would cost, and how long it would take. I reply within 24 hours, excluding weekends.
