One of the things I value most is their practical approach. They don’t overcomplicate things or push unnecessary development, focusing instead on simple, effective solutions that add value.

Commonly Asked WordPress Development Questions
-
Do you only work with businesses in Bristol?
Not at all. Our studio is just down the road in Frome, so we’re close enough to meet Bristol clients face-to-face, but we work with businesses right across the South West and the wider UK. Wherever you are, we’ll work closely with you throughout.
-
Can you meet us in Bristol?
Yes. Our studio is in Frome, under an hour away, so we’re happy to come to you for kick-off, design reviews, or whenever a conversation is easier in person. Most day-to-day collaboration happens remotely, but we’re close enough that face-to-face is never a problem.
-
Are you actually based in Bristol?
Our studio is based in Frome, just down the road from Bristol. In fact, some of the Yellow Peach team live in the city. Being where we are means we’re close enough to meet face-to-face if that’s your preference. And we’re set up to collaborate with clients and partners wherever they’re based across the region.
-
How long will my project take?
We find most projects take around three or four months, but it depends so much on scope and complexity. With every project, we’ll agree on a clear schedule of deliverables at the start, so you always know what’s happening and how everything is progressing.
-
Can you migrate an existing website to WordPress?
We can. Website migrations are carefully planned to protect content, functionality, and SEO. We review, map, and test everything so nothing is lost.
-
Can you support a WordPress site you didn’t build?
Yes. We regularly take on existing WordPress websites, auditing the setup first to understand its structure, plugins, and hosting environment before providing ongoing support.
-
Do WordPress plugins slow down websites?
Not necessarily. Poorly written plugins, unnecessary plugins or plugins performing expensive operations can affect performance.
Well-developed plugins with efficient code often have very little measurable impact.
-
We specialise in custom WordPress development, building bespoke themes, plugins, and functionality around your requirements. Where appropriate, we use trusted design frameworks, but the end result is always tailored, performant, and maintainable.
-
How do you keep WordPress websites secure?
-
How much does a basic WordPress website cost in the UK?
A basic WordPress website typically costs anywhere from a few hundred pounds if you build it yourself, to around £1,500 – £8,000 when working with a freelancer. Bespoke agency projects generally start at a higher investment because they include strategy, custom design and tailored development.
-
What does a WordPress development agency do?
A WordPress development agency designs, builds, and maintains custom WordPress websites, covering architecture, performance, security, integrations, and scalability. Unlike off-the-shelf builds, agency-led development focuses on long-term growth.
