How I approach a WordPress build

The same steps I follow on every project like this one.

  1. 01Content model first

    Map the pages, listings and reusable blocks the business publishes, then decide what is a page, a custom post type or a field.

  2. 02Theme built to the design

    Templates are built from the approved design, responsive and mobile-first, with clean markup instead of shortcode soup.

  3. 03Editor-friendly admin

    Editors get clear fields and blocks, so they can update content, galleries and listings without touching code.

  4. 04Launch checklist

    Speed, SEO basics, forms, SSL, backups and redirects are checked on staging before the site goes live.
