Custom WordPress development services

Plante Graffix provides custom WordPress development for small businesses and organizations that want fast, reliable, SEO-friendly websites — built carefully and without unnecessary bloat. I provide custom WordPress development for Rhode Island and New England businesses that want fast, SEO-friendly websites built to last.

You’ll work directly with the developer who builds your site.

Core services

Custom WordPress Development

Every site is built specifically for your business — no off-the-shelf themes or page-builder lock-in.

I build lightweight WordPress themes and features using clean, modern code. This approach keeps your site fast, secure, and easy to maintain long after launch.

  • Custom theme development
  • Gutenberg-based layouts
  • Clean, semantic HTML
  • Responsive design
  • Accessibility-aware structure

SEO-Friendly Architecture

Your site’s structure, headings, content hierarchy, and performance are all designed with search engines and real users in mind.

  • Proper heading hierarchy
  • Clean URLs
  • Fast load times
  • Image optimization
  • SEO-ready page structure

Performance & Longevity

Fast websites convert better, rank better, and last longer.

I prioritize performance, maintainability, and long-term ownership — so your site doesn’t need to be rebuilt every year.

  • Lightweight CSS & JavaScript
  • Core Web Vitals awareness
  • No unnecessary plugins
  • Future-proof structure

A focused approach — by design

Plante Graffix is a small, independent studio. That means I don’t try to be everything to everyone.

  • I don’t use bloated page builders
  • I don’t resell templates as “custom”
  • I don’t outsource your project
  • I don’t upsell unnecessary features

This keeps projects efficient, predictable, and personal.

Is this the right fit?

Good fit if you:

  • Want a custom WordPress site you own
  • Care about speed, SEO, and long-term stability
  • Prefer working directly with the developer
  • Value quality over shortcuts

Not a good fit if you:

  • Need a one-day turnaround
  • Want a drag-and-drop site you’ll redesign every year
  • Are looking for the cheapest option available

How projects typically work

  1. Discovery – goals, audience, constraints
  2. Planning – structure, content, features
  3. Build – custom theme + functionality
  4. Review – refinements and testing
  5. Launch – deployment, SEO checks, handoff
