WordPress web design for Calgary businesses.
Custom WordPress websites designed from a blank page, built with Elementor or the block editor, and handed over so your team can edit them. Fast, secure and set up properly for Google, at a fixed price.
Why it matters
WordPress done properly, not piled with plugins.
WordPress runs a large share of the web because it is flexible and easy to edit. That same flexibility is why so many WordPress sites end up slow, insecure and hard to change: a bought theme, a stack of plugins, and nobody keeping it updated. We design every page for your business first, build on a lean theme with only the plugins the site needs, tune it for speed, and leave you with an editor you can actually use.

What’s included
Everything a WordPress site needs to stay fast.
Design, build, handover and care from one team, so the site still runs well a year after launch, not just on launch day.
- 01
Custom design, no bought theme
Every page designed for your business first, then built in WordPress. Never a theme demo with your logo swapped in.
- 02
Elementor or the block editor
Built with the editor that suits your team: Elementor for visual editing, or WordPress’s own block editor for a lighter site.
- 03
Lean, vetted plugins
Only the plugins the site needs, each one maintained and checked, so there is less to break and less to patch.
- 04
Tuned for speed
Optimized images, caching and clean markup, so pages load fast on phones and are built to pass Google’s Core Web Vitals.
- 05
SEO set up properly
Page titles, structured data, a sitemap and redirects from your old pages, so a rebuild keeps the rankings you already have.
- 06
Moving to WordPress
Coming from Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy’s builder or an old hand-coded site? We move your content and redirect every old address.

WordPress Web Design FAQ
WordPress questions, answered.
What business owners ask most before a WordPress build. Don’t see yours? Reach out. We answer every email ourselves.
For most small-business sites that change often, yes: it is flexible, easy to edit, and you can move to another host or developer any time. If your site rarely changes or needs something very specific, a custom-coded site can be faster and cheaper to run. We recommend one on the discovery call and explain why.
Elementor is a visual drag-and-drop editor that makes layout changes easy. The block editor is built into WordPress, lighter and quicker, with fewer moving parts. We choose based on how much your team wants to change, and set it up so editing a page can’t break the design.
Not bought themes or theme demos. Every design is custom, built on a lean base theme with only the code the site needs, which keeps it fast and easier to maintain.
Yes. We rebuild the design, move your content and redirect every old page address so you keep the rankings you have earned. NUMI Renovations moved from GoDaddy’s website builder to WordPress this way, with all 10 of its old page addresses redirected.
You do. The domain, the WordPress site and all of its content are yours, and you can host it with us or anywhere else.
Hosting, plus keeping WordPress, the theme and plugins updated. Our maintenance plan is $130 CAD a month and covers those updates, daily off-site backups, security hardening and uptime monitoring. You can also run updates yourself; we show you how at handoff.
Yes. We regularly repair and rebuild WordPress sites that other agencies and freelancers built. If the content and structure are sound, a redesign keeps what works; if not, we rebuild it cleanly.
