WordPress Web Design Bristol
Looking for a WordPress developer in Bristol who can design a website around your business rather than simply install a ready-made theme?
The Creative Den designs and develops bespoke WordPress websites for businesses in Bristol and across the UK. From straightforward business websites to ecommerce, membership and more complex WordPress projects, we'll create a website that's easy to manage and flexible enough to grow with your business.
You'll work directly with an experienced WordPress developer throughout the project, from planning and design through to development, launch and ongoing support.
Passion + Creativity = Results
WordPress Websites Built Around Your Business
WordPress gives us the flexibility to build websites around the needs of individual businesses rather than forcing every project into the same structure.
We start by understanding what your website needs to achieve, who will use it and how you want to manage it after launch. From there, we plan the pages, functionality and user journeys before creating the design and developing the website in WordPress.
Whether you need a new website, want to replace an outdated WordPress site or need functionality that your current website can't provide, we'll recommend an approach based on what your business actually needs.
"Have been using The Creative Den for about 6 years now, and they currently look after 4 of our websites, the service is superb and any changes or requests are actioned immediately, highly recommended."

Bespoke WordPress Design
Your website is designed around your brand, content and customers rather than simply replacing the text and images in an off-the-shelf template.
Easy to Manage
Update everyday content such as text, images, pages and blog posts through WordPress without needing to edit code.
Built to Grow
WordPress provides a flexible foundation that can be expanded with new pages, functionality and integrations as your business develops.
Why Choose WordPress?
WordPress is a flexible content management system that can be used for everything from straightforward business websites to ecommerce stores and websites requiring more advanced functionality.
One of its biggest advantages for businesses is control. You're not restricted to a closed website builder, and your website can continue to evolve as your requirements change.
Flexible
Start with the website you need today and add new pages, sections and functionality as your business grows.
Easy Content Management
WordPress gives you access to manage everyday website content without relying on a developer for every small change.
Search-Friendly
WordPress gives us control over important SEO elements including page structure, metadata, internal linking, image optimisation and content.
Ecommerce Ready
WooCommerce can turn WordPress into a complete ecommerce platform for selling products and taking secure payments online.
Integrates With Other Services
WordPress can connect with payment gateways, email marketing platforms, booking systems, analytics tools and many other third-party services.
Widely Supported
As an established open-source platform, WordPress isn't tied to a single proprietary website provider or closed website-building service.

More Than a Standard WordPress Website

We've worked with WordPress websites incorporating ecommerce, online payments, learning management systems, membership functionality, custom fields, forms, email marketing integrations and other functionality tailored to the way individual businesses operate.
We'll discuss what your website needs to do before recommending plugins, integrations or custom development, helping avoid unnecessary complexity.

WordPress Websites You Can Actually Manage
A website shouldn't become difficult to use the moment your developer hands it over.
We build WordPress websites so everyday content can be managed without needing technical knowledge. Depending on your website, you'll be able to update text and images, create pages and blog posts, manage products and make other routine content changes yourself.
We'll also explain how your website works when the project is complete. If you'd rather leave ongoing changes to us, website maintenance and support are available after launch.
Update Your Own Content
Make everyday changes to text, images and pages without editing code.
Add New Content
Create new pages and blog posts as your website and business develop.
Support When You Need It
Prefer us to handle changes? We can continue managing and supporting your website after launch.
Our WordPress Development Process
1. Discovery
We discuss your business, existing website where applicable, customers, objectives and the functionality your new WordPress website requires.
2. Planning
We agree the website structure, content requirements, functionality and any third-party integrations before development begins.
3. Design
The visual direction is created around your brand and content, with opportunities to review the design and provide feedback.
4. WordPress Development
We build the approved design in WordPress and configure the required functionality, forms and integrations.
5. Responsive Testing
The website is reviewed across common screen sizes and browsers, with forms and important functionality tested before launch.
6. Launch
Once you've approved the website, we complete the final technical checks and move it to the live domain.
7. Support
After launch, we can continue looking after the website through hosting, WordPress maintenance, website changes and ongoing development.
How Much Does a WordPress Website Cost?
The cost of a WordPress website depends on its size, design requirements and the functionality it needs.
A straightforward business website will usually cost considerably less than an ecommerce website, membership platform or project requiring bespoke functionality and third-party integrations.
Our small business websites start from £599, with larger WordPress projects quoted according to their individual requirements.

WordPress Web Design FAQs
How much does a WordPress website cost?
Our small business websites start from £599. The final cost depends on the number of pages, design requirements, functionality and integrations required. Ecommerce and more complex WordPress projects are quoted individually. You can use our instant quote tool for an initial estimate.
Will I be able to update my WordPress website myself?
Yes. One of the reasons we use WordPress is that it gives you control over everyday website content. We'll build the site so common changes such as editing text and images or adding posts can be managed without needing to edit code.
Can you redesign my existing WordPress website?
Yes. We can redesign an existing WordPress website while retaining useful content and functionality, or rebuild it more extensively where the current structure is limiting what can be achieved.
Can you take over a WordPress website built by another developer?
Yes. We regularly work with existing WordPress websites. We'll first review the current setup so we understand the theme, plugins, hosting and any issues before recommending the best approach.
Do you build WooCommerce websites?
Yes. We use WooCommerce for WordPress ecommerce projects, allowing businesses to manage products, orders and online payments from their website.
Do you provide WordPress hosting and maintenance?
Yes. We can host your WordPress website and provide ongoing maintenance including software updates, backups, security checks and technical support.
Do you only work with businesses in Bristol?
No. We're Bristol based but work with businesses throughout the UK. Meetings and project reviews can be handled remotely, so location doesn't prevent us from working together.
Is WordPress good for SEO?
WordPress provides the flexibility needed to optimise important SEO elements including page content, headings, metadata, internal links, images and site structure. However, simply using WordPress doesn't automatically make a website rank, the content, technical setup, competition and wider SEO strategy also matter.
