WordPress is costing you more than you think
Constant plugin updates
Most WordPress sites rely on many plugins. Each needs updating, and one bad update can break the site or open a security hole.
A common target for hackers
WordPress runs a large share of the web, so automated attacks constantly probe its login page, plugins and database.
Slow pages
Themes, page builders and plugins add weight to every page. Slow pages lose visitors and rank lower in Google.
Rising running costs
Premium plugins, managed hosting and developer time for fixes add up, year after year.
Keep your content and rankings, lose the plugins and updates
We migrate your WordPress site to Astro on Cloudflare in four steps, without losing what already works.
Review
We check your current WordPress site: pages, content, speed, rankings and anything that must not be lost.
Rebuild in Astro
Your site is rebuilt in Astro with your content, improved where it helps, and a preview for you to approve.
Protect your rankings
Page addresses are kept where possible, and any that change are redirected, so Google and your customers still find you.
Switch to Cloudflare
We move your site to Cloudflare with no downtime, switch on the firewall and protection, test everything, and send you a before and after report.

Modern technology that small businesses can rely on
Fast
Astro sends visitors plain, lightweight pages, and Cloudflare serves them from data centres close to every visitor. Pages load almost instantly, which keeps people on your site and helps your Google ranking.
Secure
No database or plugins for hackers to target, and Cloudflare's firewall in front of every page. Far less to go wrong, and far less to keep patching.
Found in Google and AI search
Clean code, structured data and clear page structure make it easy for Google, ChatGPT, Gemini and other AI assistants to read your site and recommend you.
Low running costs
No expensive hosting plans, premium plugins or constant updates. Your site stays fast and safe without the maintenance bills.
Protected by Cloudflare's firewall
Every site we build runs behind Cloudflare, one of the world's largest security networks. We set up and manage the protection for you.
Web application firewall (WAF)
Cloudflare's firewall checks every request before it reaches your site and blocks common attacks, such as attempts to inject code or break into forms.
DDoS protection
Always-on protection against floods of traffic designed to knock your site offline.
Bot and spam protection
Bad bots are blocked, and your forms are checked with Cloudflare Turnstile, so spam is stopped without annoying puzzles for your customers.
Encryption and security headers
Every page is served over HTTPS with modern security settings, which protects visitors and builds trust with browsers and Google.

Common questions
What is a WAF?
A web application firewall (WAF) sits in front of your website and checks every request before it arrives. Cloudflare's WAF blocks known attack patterns, such as attempts to inject code or break into forms, so they never reach your site.
What does replatforming mean?
Replatforming means moving your existing website to new technology. We keep your content, design direction and page addresses, and rebuild the site in Astro on Cloudflare so it is faster, safer and cheaper to run.
What is Astro, and why Cloudflare?
Astro is a modern way of building websites that produces very fast, lightweight pages. Cloudflare is one of the world's largest networks; it hosts your site close to every visitor and protects it with its firewall. Together they give you a site that is fast, secure and cheap to run.
Can you move my WordPress site?
Yes. We move your pages, posts, images and forms across, keep your page addresses where possible and redirect any that change, so you keep your Google rankings.
Will I be able to edit my site?
Yes. Changes can be made for you as part of website care, or we can set up simple editing so you can update text and images yourself.
What is the smallest project you take on?
Projects start from £1,250 + VAT. The exact price depends on the number of pages and the state of your current site, and is fixed in writing before you commit.
How do I pay?
A 60% deposit when you accept the proposal, by card or bank transfer. The balance is due only when your site is finished and live. Website care can be paid by Direct Debit.
Do I have to take website care?
No. If you would rather look after it yourself, we hand over the website and its hosting account when it is complete.
What if I need something not included?
We give you a fixed quote first. No work is billed without your say-so.
