Websites and stores that are secure by the time they launch

A website built by a developer who has never had to break one tends to ship with the same handful of problems: unhardened admin access, unverified backups, plugins nobody audits, and configuration that assumes nobody is looking. We build and configure with that in mind from the start.

Starting at $150·Remote delivery, worldwide·Written scope before work begins
Who this is for
  • Professional-service businesses launching or replacing a website
  • Businesses starting a Shopify or WooCommerce store
  • Teams inheriting an existing site that has never been reviewed
  • Anyone tired of a site that breaks every time a plugin updates
Outcomes
  • A site that loads fast and does not embarrass you on mobile
  • Admin access that is not a single shared password
  • A backup you have actually restored at least once

Hosting, domains, premium themes, paid plugins, Shopify apps, extensive product entry, copywriting and custom application development are quoted separately. Security review of an existing site is priced under Web & API Security, and ongoing care is priced under SEO & Ongoing Care, so nothing is listed in two places.
Scope & limitations
  • Hosting, domains, premium themes, paid plugins, Shopify apps, extensive product entry, copywriting and custom application development are quoted separately.
  • Security configuration is part of a build here, not a separate product. A standalone hardening and configuration review of a site you already have is listed and priced under Web & API Security, so the same service never appears in two places.
  • Hardening and configuration review improves platform settings. It is not a penetration test of the Shopify or WordPress platform itself, and it is not a guarantee that a website cannot be compromised.
Questions

WordPress & Shopify: asked and answered

Can you fix an existing site rather than rebuild it?

Often, yes. A hardening and configuration review is the usual starting point: it identifies what is genuinely wrong before anyone commits to a rebuild. Sometimes the answer is a rebuild, but it should be an informed decision.

Do you provide hosting?

No. You own your hosting account, so you are never locked in. We are happy to recommend options, set them up, and configure them properly.

What happens after launch?

Launch bundles include 30 days of Website Care. After that, monthly maintenance or Website Care plans cover updates, monitoring, backups and small changes.
