Care plans, rescues, new builds and landing pages for WordPress sites, for owner-run businesses and in-house marketing teams. Fixed prices on the page, one senior person doing the work, and an honest answer if WordPress isn't the right tool for you. You keep the keys. We keep it running.
Same care, same standards. Different problems, so we've split the page in two. Care plans and fixed-price fixes work for both.
Someone built you a WordPress site a while back. Now it's slow, out of date, nobody's looking after it, or the person who built it has stopped answering the phone.
Jump to the Local track →Your company site runs on WordPress. Every landing page is a dev ticket, the theme is creaking, and Core Web Vitals are a quarterly embarrassment.
Jump to the Studio track →Most Zenlio sites are static: hand-built, very fast, and with almost nothing for a hacker to attack. For a local business that needs 20 to 40 strong pages and never wants to log in, that's still what we'd recommend.
But WordPress runs about 40% of the websites on the internet, and for plenty of businesses it's the right tool. If you want to edit the site yourself, publish a lot, or rely on something like WooCommerce, WordPress earns its keep. The problem is almost never WordPress. It's WordPress that nobody is looking after. Patchstack logged 11,334 new vulnerabilities across WordPress plugins and themes in 2025, and the worst ones get attacked within hours of going public.
So we look after WordPress sites properly, fix the ones that have gone wrong, and build new ones the lean way: a lightweight theme, WordPress's own block editor, a short plugin list, and no page builder lock-in. And if a site would honestly be better off not on WordPress, we'll tell you that too.
Hosting, updates, backups and monitoring, handled. Every plan starts with a full health check (normally £295), free when you join. 3-month minimum, then 30 days' notice. The site, domain and logins stay in your name throughout. All our prices on one page → Already paying someone? Run our 10-minute check to see if they're doing the job.
For a brochure site that just needs to stay safe, fast and online.
For a business site that changes often and needs to keep ranking.
For a marketing team's site, or any site where downtime costs real money.
WooCommerce shops, membership sites and multi-site setups are quoted separately, because the work is different. Unused change hours don't roll over.
One-off jobs for brochure sites, priced up front. No care plan needed. If we look and it's a bigger job than it seemed, we tell you before doing anything else.
We go through the whole site: WordPress version, theme, every plugin and when it was last updated, backups, hosting, speed, and who holds which login. You get a written report with what's urgent, what can wait, and what it would cost.
Redirecting to spam, strange pages in Google, a warning in the browser. We clean it, close the hole that let them in, reset every password, update everything, and ask Google to review the site. Most sites are back to normal within two working days.
Your designer has disappeared, or nobody knows the logins. We work through the domain, hosting, WordPress admin and Google accounts with you, and do the legwork with registrars and hosts. Some steps depend on third parties, so we'll be straight with you about timescales.
Slow WordPress sites are nearly always slow for the same reasons: heavy theme, too many plugins, giant images, cheap hosting. We fix what can be fixed on your current setup, and show you before-and-after speed scores on a phone.
For trades, practices, salons, hospitality and anyone else who'd rather be doing the job than fighting with a website.
If your WordPress site is decent but nobody's looking after it, a care plan is usually all you need. Most local businesses are fine on Essentials at £95 a month, hosting included.
£3,500 for up to 20 pages, every word written for you, a page for each service and area you cover, reviews and schema built in. Built on WordPress's own editor, so you can change prices and photos yourself. Then any care plan.
The domain, the hosting account and a full admin login, all in your name. If you ever leave, you just take it with you. Nobody should have to read our guide on getting a website back from a missing designer.
If you'll never log in to edit it, a static Zenlio Local site is faster, cheaper to run and has nothing to update. From £1,250 plus £79 a month, live in 10 working days. We'll tell you which fits on the first call.

For in-house teams with the strategy and the brand already sorted, who need a senior pair of hands on the WordPress site rather than another agency layer.
Built inside your existing site, on-brand, fast, and tracked properly. £1,250 per page, 5 to 7 working days. Packs of 3 to 5 pages at £3,500 to £6,000, same as every Studio Sprint.
We build a small library of on-brand sections in the native block editor, so your marketers can assemble the next ten pages themselves. No page builder licence, no developer ticket. Scoped and priced as a Sprint.
Plugin cull, image pipeline, caching, theme weight. Fixed scope, with before-and-after field data rather than a lab score screenshot. Quoted after a £295 health check.
The Studio care plan at £295 a month: same-day response, staging for every update, visual checks on your key pages, and a quarterly call about what to build next.
Sometimes the honest answer is a clean WordPress rebuild. Sometimes it's leaving WordPress for something faster. Either way, it's a replatforming project, typically £15,000 to £40,000, with redirects and rankings protected. Start with the CMS escape kit.
Not sure it's worth it? The CMS cost calculator puts a number on the dev tickets, delays and agency hours your current setup eats every month.
If nobody edits the site, or it's become more plugin than website, a move to a fast static build can cut the running cost and the risk at the same time. We move your content, keep your page addresses or redirect them properly, so your Google rankings come with you.
Moving off WordPress costs the same as any Zenlio Local site: £1,250, £2,500 or £3,950 to build, then £79 to £199 a month. Content move and redirects included.
Audit, migration plan, build and redirect map, with your team in the loop. We've written about why CMS migrations fail, so ours don't.
Custom plugin development. If your site needs bespoke PHP, a complex integration or a large WooCommerce catalogue rebuilt, that's specialist developer work. We'll tell you, and point you to someone good.
Page builders on new builds. Elementor and friends are fine to look after, but we won't build you a new site that locks your pages into a licence you have to renew forever.
Nulled or "free premium" plugins. Every licence on your site is legitimate and in your name, or it isn't on your site.
Hold your site hostage. Your domain, hosting and admin login stay in your name. Leave whenever you like after the minimum term, and take everything with you.
No. The health check, hacked site clean-up, locked out recovery and speed fix are one-off fixed prices. A care plan just stops you needing them again.
Yes, managed UK hosting and SSL are included in every plan. If you'd rather keep your current host, we can usually look after the site there instead. We'll check your host is up to the job first.
You do. Everything is registered in your name, with us added as a user. Leave any time after the 3-month minimum and you keep it all.
We'll happily look after a site that already uses one. We don't use them on new builds: we build on WordPress's own block editor, so your pages don't depend on a licence you have to renew every year.
Yes, but it's quoted separately rather than on the standard plans, because shops need more testing after every update and the stakes are higher if something breaks.
If you want to edit the site yourself often, publish a lot, or need something like WooCommerce, probably yes. If nobody will log in week to week, a static site is usually faster, cheaper and safer. We'll tell you which on the first call.
Yes. We build landing pages inside your existing WordPress at £1,250 a page, and can build a library of on-brand block patterns so your team can make the next ones without a developer.
No. If your site needs bespoke plugin development or complex integrations, that's a job for a specialist WordPress developer, and we'll say so rather than learn on your budget.
