What our WordPress development covers
Custom WordPress themes
Block-based themes built for your brand, with editable sections so your team can update pages without a developer.
Plugin development
Custom plugins for features, integrations and admin tools, written to WordPress coding standards.
WooCommerce stores
Online stores with custom checkout, payments, shipping rules, subscriptions and ERP or inventory sync.
Speed optimisation
Caching, image handling, script clean-up and hosting tuning to improve Core Web Vitals and load times.
Security and maintenance
Hardening, updates, backups, malware clean-up and monitoring, with guaranteed-response support.
Headless WordPress
WordPress as the content editor with a fast Next.js front end, connected through REST or WPGraphQL.
How we approach WordPress development
Custom themes over heavy page builders
Page builders are quick to start with but often add a lot of code to every page. We build lightweight block themes with patterns your team can reuse, which keeps pages fast and editing simple.
Speed and security together
Most slow or hacked WordPress sites have too many plugins, outdated code or weak hosting. We audit plugins, remove what is not needed, keep core and extensions updated and put caching, a firewall and backups in place.
WooCommerce that scales
For larger stores we use high-performance order storage, optimise database queries and offload search and heavy jobs. Custom checkout and pricing logic goes into maintainable plugins rather than snippets in the theme.
When headless makes sense
Headless WordPress suits sites that need app-like speed, content shared across web and mobile, or a custom front end. For most marketing sites, a well-built classic or block theme is simpler and cheaper to run.
How we work with Japan clients
Time-zone overlap
Japan is three and a half hours ahead of India, so our working days overlap for most of your afternoon, with a stand-up and same-day replies.
Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI)
We design to the APPI: clear purpose of use, security controls, rules for third-party and cross-border transfers, and data hosted in Japanese cloud regions when required. We sign NDAs before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in Japanese yen (JPY) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Industries we work with in Japan
Japanese companies value careful specifications, quality and reliable schedules. We work with detailed written specs, thorough testing and regular reports, and design to Japan's APPI privacy law.
Automotive
Carmakers invest in connected-car software and factory automation. We build fast, search-friendly websites and portals for this sector.
Electronics and robotics
Hardware makers need companion apps and embedded AI. Web platforms, portals and stores that turn visitors into customers.
Gaming and anime
Entertainment firms reach global fans through apps and stores. Sites and web apps that load fast and are easy for your team to update.
Retail and convenience
Chains run loyalty apps and cashless checkout. We build fast, search-friendly websites and portals for this sector.
