Every setup is tailored to your goals, but a typical package will include some or all of the following:
- WordPress installation and configuration
- Theme installation and basic design setup (our go to theme is Kadence)
- Mobile-friendly layout
- Blog categories and menus
- Essential plugins installed (SEO, contact form, cache etc)
- Basic SEO setup
- Contact form setup

- Google Analytics and Search Console connection
- Social media links
- Basic guidance on how to publish posts
And naturally, we can provide you with ongoing support, training and advice as your blog grows. We’ve used WordPress since 2007 so we know our way around.
Does your business need a blog setting up?
This service is ideal for:
Small businesses
Many businesses know they should be publishing useful content online but struggle with the setup side of things. We help local businesses launch blogs that support their SEO and help attract customers through Google and other search engines. If you already have a WordPress website, adding a blog is usually a fairly simple process. At least technically. Once it’s set up, it’s just a matter of creating content to fill it. That’s when the hard work really starts.
Beginners and non-technical users
Not everyone wants to spend hours learning WordPress. If terms like plugins, hosting, DNS, caching, and themes make your eyes glaze over, you’re not alone. We keep things simple and explain everything in plain English. But if you’re not interested in learning how these things work, that’s fine. We’ll just crack on and get the work done, then hand over the login details so you can get on with the good stuff.
Creators and side projects
Whether you’re starting a niche blog, an affiliate website, a personal brand, or a hobby project, we can help you get everything set up properly from day one. Instead of spending weeks trying to figure everything out yourself, you can start with a clean, reliable setup that’s ready for publishing and growth.
Why you should properly set up a WordPress blog from the start
A lot of websites are launched with problems that hold them back from the beginning. Slow loading times, poor structure, too many unnecessary plugins, weak security, and missing SEO foundations are all common issues that can affect performance and make a website harder to grow later on.
In many cases, fixing these problems afterwards costs more time and money than setting things up properly in the first place.
We focus on creating clean, simple WordPress setups that are easy to manage, perform well, and give your website a solid foundation for long-term growth.
Friendly support without the jargon
One of the biggest frustrations people have with web services is feeling overwhelmed or talked down to. We believe good support should feel approachable and straightforward. You don’t need to be a web expert to run a successful website.
The Fine Print
Pricing
Brand new blog setups start at £400. Addons to existing WordPress are much cheaper.
Most projects are straightforward, so we keep things simple and only include what you actually need. No hidden extras and no unnecessary addons.
Hosting
If we build a blog for you, we typically like to host it as well. But the final choice is yours.
If you choose to host with us, a care plan is required at a minimum cost of £50 per month. This keeps your site updated, backed up and secure, which helps avoid problems down the line.
If you’d prefer to manage hosting yourself, that’s absolutely fine. You’re free to take the site wherever you like.
What’s included in the care plan
- Regular updates (WordPress, theme, plugins) – we log into your blog once a week to perform updates and check everything is working properly
- Backups – daily backups in case of major issues
- Uptime monitoring – we get an alert if your site goes down for any reason
- Performance checks – nobody likes a slow-loading blog
- Reliable UK-based hosting – the ideal location if your target audience is in the UK
Plans start from £50 per month with no long-term commitment.
We don’t provide email hosting, but we recommend Google Workspace for a professional email address (you@yourbusiness.com).
We’re happy to help you get set up if needed.
