Custom WordPress development, built properly.
A custom WordPress theme written for your business alone: no page builder, no bloat, with speed, security and SEO in place from the first line of code. For businesses that know WordPress and want it built right.
- No page builder
- Built to pass Core Web Vitals
- You own the code
Custom WordPress theme development, layer by layer.
How a custom theme is put together, and why it stays fast and easy for your team to edit.
-
Layer 1 · Foundation
A theme for your site only
Your colours, fonts and spacing are defined once, in code. Every page stays on brand, and nothing loads that your site doesn’t use.
-
Layer 2 · Templates
Layouts coded by hand
Clean, semantic HTML instead of layers of nested wrappers around every heading. Faster to load, easier for Google to read, simpler to maintain.
-
Layer 3 · Custom blocks
Your sections, as blocks
Hero, services, FAQs and quote forms: each one becomes a block in the normal WordPress editor with simple fields. Fill in the blanks; the design can’t break.
-
Layer 4 · Your content
Edit it yourself
Text, images and new pages are yours to change in the editor you already know. No builder to learn and no builder licence to renew.
Speed, security and SEO, built in.
Not plugins you add later. Part of the build.
Speed first.
We design every page to pass Google’s Core Web Vitals on a phone, and test it before launch.
- Images resized, compressed and lazy-loaded
- Only the CSS and scripts each page needs
- Fonts hosted on your own site
- Core Web Vitals tested before launch
Largest Contentful Paint is one of Google's three Core Web Vitals. We check it before every launch.
Security, locked in.
Fewer plugins means fewer ways in. What’s left is reviewed, kept up to date and backed up.
- Login protection for admins
- Unused WordPress features switched off
- SSL and backups set up at launch
- Forms and email tested after every update
- Admin loginProtected
- Unused featuresSwitched off
- SSL certificateActive
- BackupsSet up
- Forms and emailTested
SEO, from line one.
Search engines read code, not designs. Every template is built with the structure Google needs, in English and Arabic.
- One clear H1 and a logical heading order
- Titles, descriptions and schema on every page
- XML sitemaps and clean addresses
- Search Console set up at launch
- Redirects from your old pages
WordPress plugins we built ourselves.
Each one does the job of several third-party plugins, in one small piece of code we maintain ourselves. They run on live client websites, including this one.
SM Forms
sm-formsQuote and contact forms with saved, numbered entries, email alerts and spam protection, in English and Arabic.
SM Mail
sm-mailReliable sending for every form and alert, so no enquiry gets lost on its way to your inbox.
SM SEO
sm-seoTitles, descriptions, schema, redirects and English–Arabic page pairing with hreflang.
Included on every build.
Page-builder site vs custom WordPress build.
Both run on WordPress, and both can look good on launch day. The difference shows up in speed, in fees and on the day you want to change something.
Custom designs. No builder in sight.
A few of the templates we build from. Each one becomes a custom WordPress theme, owned outright by the client. See all templates.
Consultancy and company profile
Template · Consultants and service firmsService pages that name the client’s problem, case examples, insights, the team and a company profile for tenders, with a clear way to book a call.
Medical clinic and healthcare
Template · Clinics and healthcareDepartments and doctor profiles, a health explorer that guides patients to the right department, and an appointment portal with dates and times.
Clothing store and fashion e-commerce
Template · E-commerce and retailCollections with filters, quick view, sizes and colours, a wishlist and a shopping bag with discount codes and delivery shown before checkout.
You own the site. And the code.
When the final payment is made, everything we made for you is yours. No lock-in, no logins held back, and no fee just to keep your own website.
- The theme code and every custom block, with full rights to change it or hand it to another developer
- Every login: domain, hosting, WordPress admin, analytics and Search Console
- The design files and a short video on editing your own site
- Our plugins (SM Forms, SM Mail, SM SEO), included and licensed to your site
