Custom WordPress Theme

Pixel-Perfect Custom Design for your Website

We specialise in creating custom WordPress websites that perfectly align with your website design.

If you work with us for the Design Phase of your website, you can expect a meticulously crafted, premium custom design using Figma.

This design serves as the blueprint for the website development proces. We’ll ensure that the final website is fully editable version of the custom design website shown in Figma.

Additionally, if you already have design files from another agency, we can seamlessly transform them into a fully functional custom WordPress theme for your website.

I would highly recommend Brett and the team at Stone Digital. They assisted us with building a new website which now allows for easier setup and customisation of pages and products which had been a pain point of ours for some time. The new site now loads very fast and overall is easier for our team to use. We specifically wanted custom, advanced integration with Hero Travel platform allowing for multi product bookings. Our new website uses custom designs to suit our brand whilst still being able to index well with Google. Brett and the team have been a pleasure to work with and are always on point. Would highly recommend.

I was introduced to Brett by an acquaintance. Brett was a very credible developer with excellent website, XML and CMS knowledge. When I went to Sydney, he came to the hotel cafe and had a very good meeting. In particular, my request was a multilingual EC site, but the development went smoothly. He always says “Feel free to get in touch if any questions throughout the process.” And he cares for me and follows up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about our custom WordPress theme development services? Explore our frequently asked questions to find answers to common queries.

What is WordPress theme development, and why do I need it?

A custom WordPress theme is simply a custom design and developed website using the world’s most popular CMS: WordPress

The alternative to a custom WordPress theme is an off-the-shelf WordPress theme or using do-it-yourself tools like Squarespace or Wix to build your website.

A custom WordPress theme is tailored to your exact needs and branding, setting you apart from those using generic templates.

It’s important to note that building a custom WordPress website is not suitable for everyone. It typically requires a higher budget and is more suited for businesses with a premium brand and specific, complex requirements.

At Stone Digital, we specialise in creating bespoke WordPress themes. We’re experts in developing custom, high quality websites and we’re not an agency that simply installs pre-made templates for our Clients. Each site is tailored to the unique needs of your business, ensuring a standout online presence.

Why is WordPress so popular?

In our view as web development professionals, WordPress is the most popular website platform in the world for three key reasons:

Flexibility: WordPress uniquely balances user-friendliness and powerful customization. It offers intuitive tools that beginners can easily navigate, as well as powerful customisation features for advanced developers.
Extensive Support Ecosystem: The platform benefits from a robust community of developers and users. This community actively contributes to its continuous enhancement, providing an extensive range of themes and plugins that cater to virtually every need.
Longevity: WordPress has a proven track record of stability and reliability for over two decades now!

Will the website be easy to update on my own after it is live?

Yes, most definitely!

This is a topic we take very seriously at Stone Digital. We pride ourselves on being able to deliver custom websites that are easy for non-technical team members to easily update themselves.

Every custom WordPress Theme and Shopify Theme that we develop will be configured such that team members can easily log into the website dashboard and adjust page content such as written text and images on the website.

How much does a Custom WordPress website cost?

Pricing is tailored to your specific requirements, but as a reference point, our custom WordPress website projects typically start at $8,000 AUD. Additionally, we offer monthly Support and Maintenance Plans starting from $480 AUD per month.

What kind of support and maintenance do you provide?

We offer various support and maintenance packages tailored to your specific project needs:

Monthly Security and Maintenance Packages

What’s Included: Regular WordPress updates, website health monitoring.
Pricing: Starting from $480 AUD ex. GST per month.

Monthly Advanced Support Packages

What’s Included: This comprehensive package includes unlimited support requests and the addition of unlimited new features to your website.
Custom Tailoring: Each package is custom-designed for your website, with a digital roadmap to guide the development of upcoming projects and features.

Hour Bundles

Description: This option allows for the pre-purchase of a set number of hours.

Note: We generally advise against this approach as it tends to be reactive rather than proactive in managing your website’s needs.

What happens after my WordPress website is launched?

After your WordPress website is launched, we provide ongoing support and maintenance to ensure it continues to perform at its best. Our team is here to assist with any updates, troubleshooting, or enhancements you may need, allowing you to focus on your business while we take care of the technical aspects. We’re committed to your website’s long-term success.

What sets Stone Digital apart from other agencies?
