Kerb builds every website custom from scratch rather than using WordPress. WordPress is a popular tool and it's the right fit for some projects - it just isn't how I build. For most Dorchester businesses, a custom-built site is faster, cheaper to run and safer.
| Custom-built by Kerb | A typical WordPress site | |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Lightweight purpose-built pages - nothing loads that isn't used | Themes plus several plugins add weight that can slow pages down |
| Running cost | No theme or plugin licences to renew | Premium themes and plugins often need yearly subscriptions |
| Security | No plugin surface to attack, nothing to patch every week | Core and plugins need regular security updates to stay safe |
| Upkeep | I look after it for you on a simple monthly | Someone has to keep plugins updated or things break |
| Made for you | Built around your business, start to finish, by one person | Often assembled from an off-the-shelf theme anyone can buy |
Set on WordPress specifically? I'm honest that it isn't what I offer - but if you want a fast, low-maintenance site you never have to think about, custom-built is usually the better value.
No big-agency price tag and nothing hidden. A real, custom-built website starts at £250, with clear tiers as you need more - and hosting, updates and care from £25/mo. You'll see a free demo and a fixed price before you commit a penny.
A clean, fast one-page site - ideal for a trade or small business that needs to look sharp and get found on Google.
A multi-page site with services, gallery and contact forms - room to show the full range of what you do.
A larger, fully bespoke build with the works - and the option to wire in business software behind it.
Every tier includes local SEO setup and hosting, updates and care from £25/mo. No long tie-in.
I build you a free demo from your own photos, so you see exactly what you'd get before spending a penny. Like it, we polish it and it goes live with local SEO set up. No risk to try.
Working with businesses across Dorchester and mid-Dorset - and remotely UK-wide.
