Is your website under performing?

A Birmingham Based WordPress Agency

That’s less than great, isn’t it? If your site is slow, buggy, doesn’t convert, doesn’t receive the traffic levels you need, and feels uninspired, we’re not surprised you’re here. Every day clients come to us frustrated with their site’s current state, searching for the right team to fix it. And, that’s usually us!

Your Problems. Our Solutions.

WordPress Agency Birmingham

“What can we do about it?” Well, we’d start with the below:

Optimise your design for conversions.

It should always be easy for your customers to get in touch with you or make a purchase. This is true for most businesses, regardless of industry. The primary goal of your website should be that it’s easily found and easy to use. We’d also look at strategically placing calls to action (or CTAs) across your website. These play a big part in your website’s conversion optimisation. Their relevance, messaging and placement are vital.

This is how you create an awesome user experience. Of course, there are other bells and whistles to include  but fundamentally, it comes down to good design. A design that is tailored to your business and your website's primary goals. At KIJO, we’d uncover your user personas and build an aesthetically appealing website which speaks directly to your clients. We’d also curate a design system that ensures brand consistency, strengthening brand trust and awareness for your user.

For the past decade, we’ve used and continue to use WordPress across the hundreds of websites we’ve built for clients. That’s because it ranks well for SEO and has excellent blogging features. It’s obviously not as simple as just installing WordPress and ranking number one on Google! That takes consistent work, month on month. But, WordPress is a great platform and one that provides the ultimate foundations to supercharge that growth.

Fundamentally, a fast, well-performing website is great for several reasons. Namely, your users will thank you and Google loves a snappy website. So, what do we do? We implement caching (a high-speed data storage layer that means the files powering your site can be accessed quickly) and we optimise your images so they’re low in size, high in quality. We get your Google Lighthouse score to 90+, we offer excellent hosting, and we use a reliable Content Delivery Network (CDN).

The KIJO team was able to translate our ask into a reality with very little intervention from us, and it was basically perfect on the first round.

Still Got Some Questions?

WordPress Agency Birmingham

If you’ve still got some questions, these are the most frequent ones we get.

How much will building a website cost?

The scope of a website can vary enormously. After a complimentary 30-minute consultation call with a member of the KIJO Partnerships team, we will be able to produce a proposal for your project that will include costs. As a starting point though, a budget under £10,000 would not be realistic for a website that is going to move your business forward.

How long does the full website design and website development process take?

We have perfected our process over the past 10 years to be as detailed and efficient as possible. The primary delay in any website project typically occurs when the materials and information KIJO needs to complete the project are delayed from the client’s side. If everything is provided on time, you can expect it to take between 8 to 12 weeks on average. This will change depending on the size and complexity of the project. Reach out to our team and we can provide you with a more detailed timeline.

Are there any on-going costs once my website is built?

All websites need to have a hosting agreement in place with a hosting company. KIJO offers managed Cloud hosting with a WordPress specialist hosting company. This means we can handle all your hosting requirements. Our hosting packages can be found via the following link: WordPress Hosting.

KIJO also offers WordPress maintenance packages. It is generally considered best practice for all WordPress websites to have a maintenance package in place. To view our WordPress maintenance packages please click on the following link: WordPress Maintenance

Can you advise me on how to gain users for my website?

Yes. This is what our KIJO Optimise service is designed for. KIJO Optimise offers monthly website enhancement using data-driven reports, prioritised roadmaps, and dedicated account management, ensuring your website it continuously optimised for search engines.

Do you have examples of WordPress websites you have previously built?

Yes, we have a large portfolio of websites for you to look at. The best and easiest way to check out our recent websites portfolio is via the following link: Our Work
