In Canberra

Rescues and rebuilds for sites that grew untidy

Many Canberra organisations inherited a WordPress site built years ago with a dozen overlapping plugins. WordPress developers in Canberra audit what is actually needed, remove the rest and rebuild the pieces that cause slowness or security risks.

Our team is based in Perth and has no Canberra office, so we are open about how the work happens: scheduled video calls, shared documents and short written updates. We can arrange a visit to Canberra when a project calls for it.

  • Member data handled carefully
  • Support for existing sites
  • Accessible themes

Common situations

What Canberra clients usually ask us to solve

Association and member sites

Association and member sites on WordPress hold personal data and membership logic. We keep them secure, fast and easy to run.

Sites hacked or infected

Hacked or infected sites need careful cleaning, not just deleting files. We find the entry point, patch it and harden the site.

Sites with old custom code

Sites with old custom code and unsupported plugins are risky. We update them in stages and document what changed.

Security

Hacked sites need careful cleaning, so no hidden problems remain afterwards.
