CMS Websites
Professionally built CMS websites that are fast, secure and easy to manage. Whatever fits your business — WordPress, Umbraco, Kentico, a headless setup or something bespoke — we set it up properly, with a custom theme rather than a generic skin. We're not tied to one platform.
When you'd choose it
- You publish often — blog posts, pages, products — and need to do it yourself.
- Several people need to update the site without breaking it.
- You want content independence without giving up performance.
Who it's for
Businesses that manage their own content day to day and want a visual editor — without the plugin bloat and security holes that come with a CMS set up badly.
The honest version
Pros, cons and the trade-offs.
We'd rather you choose the right thing than the most expensive thing. Here's the straight version.
Why it's a good fit
- Edit pages, posts and images yourself, no code required.
- A bespoke theme matched to your brand — not an off-the-shelf template.
- We will tell you when a CMS is the wrong choice and a static build would be faster.
Worth knowing
- A CMS adds a moving part to keep updated and secure — we harden it and can maintain it for you.
- Done cheaply, CMS sites get slow and risky. Doing it properly costs a little more.

Questions
CMS Websites — good to know
Which CMS should I use?
Traditional CMS (WordPress, Umbraco) suits day-to-day visual editing. Headless suits multi-channel delivery and developer flexibility. Enterprise (Kentico, Sitecore) suits larger orgs needing automation and personalisation. We help you choose — and if none quite fit, we build something bespoke.
What does a CMS site cost?
Projects typically start from £1,000, depending on the platform, page count and any custom functionality.
Can I update it myself?
Yes — that is the whole point. You manage content independently, and we handle the technical side.
What is a headless CMS?
A headless CMS separates content from the front-end. Content is managed in one place and delivered via an API to your website, app or other channels.
