WordPress Developer in Sydney
Custom themes, WooCommerce stores, third-party integrations and speed fixes for Sydney businesses — built and supported by a Sydney-based WordPress developer working in your time zone.
WordPress development for Sydney businesses
Plenty of Sydney businesses already run WordPress, but what sits underneath is often the problem: a heavy multipurpose theme, a dozen overlapping plugins, and forms or booking tools bolted on over the years. Pages load slowly on mobile, updates feel risky, and simple changes need a workaround.
We build WordPress sites from a clean, custom theme using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) or native blocks, so your team edits content in clearly labelled fields instead of fighting a page builder. Where you need more — a WooCommerce store, a quote calculator, a CRM connection — we write it as maintainable code and document it, so the site stays easy to update long after launch.
WordPress development services in Sydney
Development-focused work: the build, the integrations and the upkeep. If you also need a new look, our Sydney web design service covers that.
Custom WordPress themes
Hand-built themes using ACF or Gutenberg blocks, with templates matched to your content rather than a demo site. Lighter code means faster pages and fewer conflicts when WordPress core updates.
WooCommerce development
Online stores set up for Australian trading: GST-inclusive pricing, Australia Post or courier shipping rules, and gateways such as Stripe, PayPal or Afterpay. We also extend existing stores with custom product options and checkout changes.
Integrations & custom plugins
Connect WordPress to the tools you already use — CRMs, email marketing, booking systems and accounting software — through their APIs, or package custom features as a small plugin you own.
Speed & Core Web Vitals
An audit that finds what's slowing your site, followed by fixes: image compression, caching, removing unused scripts and replacing heavy plugins. It matters when you're competing for mobile searches.
Migrations & rebuilds
Move from Wix, Squarespace or an ageing WordPress install without losing content or rankings: URL mapping, 301 redirects and a carefully checked launch.
Maintenance & security
Core, theme and plugin updates, off-site backups, uptime monitoring and security hardening, so problems are caught before your customers notice them.
How a Sydney WordPress project runs
Being in Sydney means we share your working hours and can meet face to face when a project calls for it. Most projects follow four stages.
Technical brief
We review your current site, hosting and plugins, then agree on scope: templates, integrations, content types and what success looks like.
Build on staging
Development happens on a private staging site you can click through at any time, so feedback is given on real pages rather than screenshots.
Test & launch
We test forms, checkout, redirects and mobile layouts, launch at a quiet time, and watch Search Console for crawl errors in the following weeks.
Handover & support
You get a walkthrough of the editor and notes on how the site is built. Ongoing updates and fixes are available on a maintenance plan.

Sydney's business mix is broad, and WordPress suits most of it: professional firms in the CBD and North Sydney that need fast, credible sites; builders and trades across the Hills, the Shire and the west who rely on quote requests; and hospitality and retail businesses whose menus, bookings or online orders simply have to work.
For locally focused businesses we also set up the foundations for local search: consistent business details, LocalBusiness structured data and a dedicated page for each service you offer.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about WordPress development in Sydney
How much does a WordPress website cost in Sydney?
Our Starter package is $2,500 for a custom WordPress site of up to five pages, and Professional is $4,500 for up to 15 pages including WooCommerce. Larger builds, custom plugins and complex integrations are quoted after a technical brief. Full inclusions are on our pricing page.
Do you build and customise WooCommerce stores?
Yes. We build new WooCommerce stores and work on existing ones: custom product types and options, shipping rules, payment gateways, subscriptions, and performance tuning for slow product and checkout pages.
Can you take over a WordPress site another developer built?
Usually, yes. We start with an audit of the theme, plugins, hosting and any custom code, then tell you plainly what's worth keeping, what needs fixing and what it will cost before any work begins.
Can we meet in person?
We're based in Sydney, so yes — we can meet in person when it helps, such as for a kick-off workshop. Day to day, most communication happens over video calls, email and phone on 0425 892 765.
How long does a WordPress build take?
A Starter site typically takes 2–3 weeks and a Professional build 3–4 weeks. Larger custom or WooCommerce projects usually run 4–8 weeks, depending mostly on how quickly content and feedback come through.
