WordPress is costing you more than you think

It's not just hosting. It's the plugins, the security patches, the updates that break things, and the developer time to keep it all running.

🔒

Security vulnerability

WordPress is the #1 target for hackers. Every plugin is an attack vector. One outdated plugin can compromise your entire site.

🐌

Slow page loads

Every request hits a PHP server and MySQL database. Add a page builder and plugins and you're looking at 3–5 second load times. Google notices.

🔧

Endless maintenance

WordPress core updates. Plugin updates. Theme updates. PHP upgrades. Database optimisation. SSL renewals. Backup management. It never stops.

💸

Compounding costs

Hosting £11–44/mo. Plugin licences £15–50/mo. Theme £5–15/mo. Developer maintenance £50–200/mo. That's £1,000–3,700+ per year.

💥

Plugin conflicts

Update one plugin, break another. The #1 cause of WordPress downtime isn't hacking — it's a routine update gone wrong.

📉

SEO penalty

Google's Core Web Vitals directly affect rankings. Slow TTFB, poor LCP, layout shifts — WordPress sites increasingly fail these metrics.

Side-by-side cost comparison

Real numbers. No hidden fees. The new stack pays for itself from month one.

Build & Preview

The new site is built and deployed to a private preview URL. You see exactly what you're getting before committing.

Plugins to Maintain

The non-technical content editor now manages all 4 domains independently via a visual drag-and-drop editor — creating pages, editing content, and publishing without any developer involvement. WordPress maintenance was completely eliminated.

What replaces WordPress

Modern, proven technologies used by Netflix, Nike, TikTok, and thousands of others.

Next.js + React

The most popular React framework. Server-side rendering, automatic code splitting, image optimisation. Built by Vercel.

🌍

Vercel (Hosting)

Global edge network, 100+ locations. Push to GitHub, live in 60 seconds. Instant rollbacks. £20/month.

✏️

Builder.io (CMS)

Visual drag-and-drop editor. Your team edits content like WordPress — no code required. Free plan included.

🛡️

Cloudflare (DNS)

Free DNS, DDoS protection, near-instant propagation. Full control over all records. Replaces paid DNS add-ons.

🔐

TypeScript

Type-safe JavaScript. Catches bugs before they reach production. Industry standard for modern web apps.

🎨

Tailwind CSS

Utility-first CSS framework. Fast to build, easy to maintain, consistent design system across all pages.

You keep full control

No vendor lock-in. No held-hostage code. Everything belongs to your business.

📂

Full source code access

Complete codebase on your GitHub account. You own it. Any Next.js developer worldwide can pick it up and continue.

👤

Your accounts, your email

Vercel, Cloudflare, Builder.io — all created with your business email. We're invited as a team member, not an owner.

🚪

Clean offboarding

If we stop working together, you remove our access with one click. Full documentation provided. No dependency.

🔀

Platform portable

Next.js is open source — move from Vercel to Netlify, AWS, or any server. Builder.io content exports via API.

Common questions

Will my team still be able to edit the website?

Yes. Builder.io provides a visual drag-and-drop editor that works much like WordPress. Your team can edit text, swap images, create posts, and publish — no code needed. Training included.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

No. All URLs are mapped and 301 redirected. Metadata preserved. Rankings may fluctuate for 2–4 weeks, then stabilise — typically higher due to improved Core Web Vitals.

What if something goes wrong?

Your WordPress site stays live during the entire migration. If anything goes wrong, we revert DNS back to WordPress in minutes. Completely reversible.

How long does it take?

Typically 3–5 weeks including monitoring. The actual switch happens in a day — the rest is building, testing, and making sure everything is perfect.

What about my email?

Email (MX records) is carefully preserved during DNS migration. We audit all records before touching anything. Email continues without interruption.

What does the migration cost?

Quoted per-project after the free audit. Ongoing infrastructure is just £20/month (Vercel Pro). No plugin fees, no theme fees, no maintenance fees.

Can I go back to WordPress?

Yes. WordPress is kept running for 2–4 weeks as a safety net. Reverting is as simple as pointing DNS back. Content is always exportable.

I run an agency — can you white-label?

Yes. We work with agencies as a white-label delivery partner. You keep the client relationship and charge your rate. We handle the build.
