What We Build with WordPress

We treat WordPress as a web platform shaped around your needs, not just a blogging tool. These are the needs we see most often; the scope of each project is defined separately.

  1. Corporate Websites

    The need A site that represents the brand accurately and is easy for the team to keep up to date.

    We build brand-specific page templates and content fields your team can update themselves.

  2. Multilingual Brand and Product Sites

    The need Product and brand content that reaches different markets with the same consistency.

    We plan language-specific pages, content and URLs together with the translation workflow and language switching.

  3. WooCommerce Shopping Experiences

    The need A store that brings content and sales together in one admin panel.

    We build a WooCommerce store tailored to your product structure, promotion rules and operations.

  4. Content and Publishing Portals

    The need Publishing news, blog posts, guides or resources in an organized way.

    We set up a structured publishing platform with custom content types, categories and tags, editorial roles and archive pages.

  5. Membership and User Areas

    The need Making certain content or actions available only to registered users.

    We design registration, login, user roles and members-only content around the project's requirements.

  6. API-Connected Custom Web Solutions

    The need Custom functionality that goes beyond a standard site and works with other systems.

    We keep WordPress as the content manager and add business-specific functionality through custom plugins and API connections.

WordPress isn't the right technology for every project; if your needs call for a different approach, we'll say so during discovery.

WordPress Admin and Content Management

Whether you can run the site yourselves depends on how the admin is set up. We design the editing experience around the content your team will actually work with.

Example content model: a page is built from reorderable blocks, each with its own fields.
  • Project-Specific Fields with ACF Pro

    We define only the fields each content type needs, so editors fill in clearly labeled fields instead of one generic text box.

  • Block-Based Page Management

    Pages are built from blocks that follow the design system; editors can add and reorder blocks while the design stays consistent.

  • Repeatable Content Blocks

    Lists such as team members, testimonials, FAQs or product features can be added and edited without creating separate pages.

  • Editor Roles and Permissions

    We separate who can edit and publish which content, and keep critical settings behind administrator access.

  • Multilingual Content Management

    On multilingual projects, tools such as Polylang let you manage each language from the same admin, with translations linked to each other.

  • Less Reliance on Developers

    Field instructions, sensible defaults and previews help your team handle everyday updates without developer support.

WordPress Integrations

Set up properly, WordPress can work alongside the other systems your business relies on. We plan each integration around which way data needs to flow and how often.

  1. ERP · CRM
  2. WordPress + REST API
  3. Payments · Shipping
WordPress can exchange data with business systems and e-commerce services through the REST API and custom endpoints.
  • ERP and CRM Integrations

    Customer, product or order data passed between WordPress and your business systems according to defined rules.

  • Salesforce and Third-Party APIs

    Connections to CRMs such as Salesforce and other services with official APIs, where access and security requirements allow.

  • Form Data to Your CRM

    Contact and application form submissions delivered to the right system and person without manual copying.

  • Payment and Shipping Integrations

    Payment providers and shipping carriers connected to complete the order flow in WooCommerce stores.

  • Product, Order and Stock Sync

    Stock and pricing kept in line with ERP or marketplace systems at set intervals.

  • WordPress REST API and Custom Endpoints

    Data exposed in a controlled way for a mobile app, a separate front end or business partners.

Whether an integration is feasible depends on the other system's API, access permissions and security requirements. We define the scope together during discovery.

Our WordPress Development Process

  1. 1. Discovery and Scope

    We define content types, user needs and integrations.

  2. 2. Design and Content Model

    We plan custom interfaces, content structures and WordPress editing fields.

  3. 3. Custom Development

    We build the theme, custom fields and required API connections.

  4. 4. Testing and Content Review

    We test the website across devices and review performance, content and technical SEO requirements.

  5. 5. Launch and Support

    We launch the website and define an appropriate maintenance scope for projects developed by Basework.

Our Approach to WordPress Performance and Security

We treat performance and security as part of development, not as settings added after launch.

Performance

  • Caching and load optimization

    Page caching and less unnecessary code, using tools such as WP Rocket where they fit.

  • CDN and Cloudflare

    Static files served from locations close to visitors, with a basic protection layer.

  • Image optimization

    Images delivered at the right size and format, with services such as ShortPixel where needed.

  • Core Web Vitals and measurement

    Real measurements before and after launch to find what to improve.

Security and Continuity

  • Access permissions

    Limited administrator accounts and role-based permissions.

  • Updates and security checks

    Core, theme and plugin updates applied with compatibility checks.

  • Backups and monitoring

    Regular backups and uptime monitoring.

  • Technical SEO groundwork

    Heading structure, redirects, sitemaps and meta fields prepared with tools such as Yoast SEO.

We don't promise a specific Lighthouse score, performance gain or ranking. Post-launch maintenance is available only for projects Basework has built, under a maintenance contract.

Prebuilt themes may suit simple needs. At Basework, we design and develop for each project; the right approach depends on requirements and budget.

Design Bound by template Bespoke interface Separate front-end
Content editing Theme-defined fields Tailored fields Content via API
Integrations May depend on plugins Custom integrations API-driven integrations
Maintenance Theme/plugin dependencies Maintaining custom code CMS/front-end managed separately
Typical fit Simple websites Tailored business needs Decoupled applications

Moving to WordPress and Rebuilding Your Site

Whether we're rebuilding your existing WordPress site or moving you from another CMS, we plan each step in advance to protect your content and search visibility.

  1. Review of the Current Site

    We review content types, page structure, plugins and the pages that bring in traffic, then decide whether a custom rebuild or a migration is the right approach.

    Outcome of this step Rebuild or migration approach

  2. Content and Media Migration Plan

    We decide what moves across as is, what gets restructured and how media files will be transferred. Automatic, lossless migration isn't possible from every CMS.

    Outcome of this step Migration inventory and method

  3. URL Mapping and 301 Redirects

    We map old URLs to new ones and prepare permanent redirects, one of the most important steps for reducing the risk of lost traffic.

    Outcome of this step URL mapping sheet

  4. Metadata and Indexability

    We check page titles, descriptions, canonical tags, sitemaps and robots settings against the new structure.

    Outcome of this step Technical SEO checklist

  5. Staging and Quality Assurance

    We build the new site on a non-indexed staging environment and check content, forms, redirects and devices before launch.

    Outcome of this step Launch-ready site and launch plan

  6. Launch and Post-Launch Checks

    After launch, we monitor redirects, crawl errors and Search Console data and fix any issues that come up.

    Outcome of this step Post-launch check report
