What’s included · Your CMS
It is WordPress, and that is on purpose.
Your team edits pages, publishes news and adds area guides themselves, without a ticket, a wait or an invoice for a changed sentence. And because it is not our own private system, you are not trapped in it.
Why we say which CMS, when most providers do not
A lot of agency websites run on a platform built by the company that sold you the website. It works, often well — but it has two consequences that are rarely spelled out.
Nobody else can work on it. Every change goes through them, at their rate, in their queue. The small stuff you would happily do yourself becomes a request.
And you cannot take it anywhere. When you leave, the site does not come with you, because the thing it runs on was never yours. You get your content in a file, at best, and start again.
WordPress runs a large share of the web, which means your team may already know it, anyone can work on it, and if you ever go elsewhere the site itself is portable. Saying so publicly is a straightforward answer to “what am I locked into?” before anybody has to ask.
What your team can do without us
Edit any page
Change wording, swap a photograph, reorder a section. The things that are too small to ask for and so never get done.
Publish news and guides
Market comment, a new area guide, a local sponsorship. Written in the morning, live by lunchtime.
Keep the team current
Add a joiner, remove a leaver, update a photograph, without it being a job for anybody else.
Roles that make sense
A negotiator who can publish a guide but cannot break the homepage. Branch staff limited to their own branch.
Built from blocks, not code
Sections designed for your site that your team can reuse on a new page, so a new page still looks like it belongs.
Properties stay automatic
Listings come from your CRM and nobody touches them by hand — the editing is for the pages around them.
And the parts you should not have to think about — core and plugin updates, security, backups and hosting — are ours, in the monthly. A self-hosted WordPress site nobody maintains is how WordPress gets its bad reputation.
