WordPress Development

New builds and rebuilds for business, hotel and travel sites.

I build WordPress websites for businesses, hotels and travel brands: the page structure, the design, the layout of your content and the features the site needs, such as enquiry forms or a booking calendar. The dashboard is set up so the content you change often is easy to edit yourself.

What’s included

  • Site structure and page design planned around your goals
  • Contact forms, galleries, blogs and other features you need
  • Editing set up so you can update common content yourself
Ideal forBusinesses launching a first website, or replacing one that no longer fits.

Landing Pages

One page, one clear action.

A landing page has a single job, such as a phone call, a booking request or a sign-up. I design the page around that action and build it in WordPress, so you can change the wording and offers later without starting again.

What’s included

  • One main action, supported by clear wording
  • A form or button connected to the way you take enquiries
  • A layout that works on phones as well as desktops
Ideal forCampaigns, seasonal offers and new services that need a dedicated page.

Booking Systems

Let guests book or enquire without the back-and-forth.

For hotels, rentals and tour operators who take reservations, I set up availability calendars, booking or enquiry forms, payment options and confirmation emails in WordPress. What suits you depends on how you take bookings today, so we start from your process rather than from a plugin.

What’s included

  • Availability calendar with booking or enquiry forms
  • Online payment options and automatic confirmation emails
  • Calendar sync where your setup allows it
Ideal forHotels, guest houses, rentals and tour operators who want guests to book on their own website.

SEO Optimisation

Make the site easier to find and to understand.

I work on the parts of SEO that live on your website: page titles and descriptions, heading structure, internal links, image text, site speed, and technical issues that stop pages from being crawled or understood. I can’t promise rankings, but I can remove what is getting in the way.

What’s included

  • Page titles, descriptions and headings reviewed
  • Technical checks: indexing, redirects and sitemaps
  • Speed work such as image and plugin clean-up
Ideal forSites that look right but are hard to find, or were never set up with search in mind.

Bug Fixes & Support

Fix what is broken and keep it updated.

If something on your WordPress site has stopped working, such as a plugin conflict, a layout that shifted after an update, a form that doesn’t send or a critical error, I track down the cause and fix it. I also handle updates and small changes on an ongoing basis if you’d like one regular point of contact.

What’s included

  • Diagnosis of errors, conflicts and broken layouts
  • Fixes for forms, plugins and theme problems
  • Updates and small changes when you need them
Ideal forOwners of WordPress sites that are broken, outdated or slow, whoever built them.

Responsive Design

Layouts that hold up on phones and tablets.

I check how pages look and behave on phones, tablets and desktops, then adjust spacing, menus, images and forms so the site stays easy to use at every size. This applies to new builds and to existing sites that feel awkward on smaller screens.

What’s included

  • Menus and buttons that work with a thumb
  • Images and text sized for each screen
  • Forms checked on mobile
Ideal forSites that look fine on a computer but clumsy on a phone or tablet.

Where to start

Three common starting points.

You need a new website

From first conversation to launch: structure, design, build and a handover so you know how to manage the site.

Your current site is the problem

It may be slow, outdated or broken. I will look at what is wrong and what is worth keeping.

You want a regular contact

Updates, fixes and small improvements when you need them, handled by someone who already knows your site.

Questions

Good to know
before we start.

Straight answers to the things clients ask most. Anything else? Just send me a message.

Can you fix a WordPress site you did not build?

Yes. I can work on sites built by someone else. I start by finding the cause of the problem, then explain what I would change before I change it.

Can you guarantee my site will rank on Google?

No one can honestly promise that. What I can do is improve the things the website controls, such as titles, structure, speed and technical errors, so search engines can understand your pages.

What does a booking system usually include?

Typically an availability calendar, a booking or enquiry form, payment options and email confirmations. What is right for you depends on how you take reservations today, so I ask about that first.

Which plugins and tools will you use?

It depends on the project. I will tell you what I plan to use and why, so there are no surprises about ongoing costs such as paid plugins.

Do you offer support once the site is live?

Yes. Updates, fixes and small changes are available, and we can agree how much support you want before the project ends.

In plain words

WordPress development services, explained

WordPress development services from Sami Kamboh, at his desk

My WordPress development services cover the whole life of a website: building it, extending it, repairing it and keeping it running. Each service above is a starting point, and many projects combine two or three of them.

What the services have in common

Whichever of the WordPress development services you choose, the work is scoped first, built carefully and checked on phones, tablets and desktops. Google now uses the mobile version of a page for indexing, and its guide to mobile-first indexing explains why a responsive layout matters for search.

Choosing between them

New websites suit a business that has none or has outgrown its site. Landing pages suit a single campaign or offer. Booking features suit hotels, tours and anyone taking reservations. Repairs suit a site that is broken, slow or unsafe to update. These WordPress development services can be combined, and I will tell you honestly if a smaller job is all you need. When you ask about WordPress development services, I reply with questions about your goal, not a sales script.

If you are not sure which one fits, describe the site and what is going wrong or what you want it to do. I will suggest where to start among my WordPress development services, and you decide whether to go ahead. You can see the finished results in the projects, read how a job runs in how I work, or send a brief when you are ready.

Get in touch

Have a website to
build or fix?

Send a few details about the site, what it needs to do and when you would like it live. I read every enquiry myself and reply with questions or next steps.
