A WordPress plugin is a prepackaged file that gives your website extra capabilities for enhanced performance. Plugins can be free or paid, and add all kinds of additional features, from conversion tracking and Ecommerce to SEO analysis and one-click backups.
When you build a website with our WordPress designers and developers, we’ll make sure to implement the best plugins for your needs and goals.
A WordPress theme is a design template with a variety of pre-built pages ready for content entry. It is precoded for instant integration with your website.
WordPress themes can be a solid option for businesses that need to get their website up and running fast, as this type of design project is relatively straightforward. Building a website with a WordPress theme can also be a cost-effective solution for smaller businesses. Many themes are free of charge, and require less time and effort for a developer to integrate compared to building a custom alternative.
Plus, there are thousands of themes to choose from on WordPress. And if you want your website to really reflect your brand, you can tailor your chosen theme to a certain extent. Generally, you’ll be able to customise design elements like style, layout, and colours!

Here’s a short video to demonstrate the difference between content management with WordPress themes, versus the flexiblocks we build for custom websites:
With a custom website, you have the freedom to create a bespoke solution for your business’s unique brand, target audience and offerings. Our custom web designs can be integrated with WordPress, giving you unparalleled performance, flexibility and scalability.
Because we develop your site from scratch, we’re able to optimise it at every stage. With clean code that supports fast load times, responsive designs for strong performance on all devices and purpose-built page layouts, your site will feature an unrivalled user experience – a key component for both SEO and customer satisfaction!
Another key benefit of a custom website? The simplicity of content management. With a back end tailored to your business needs, it’s easy for anyone to update pages, posts, videos and images across the website.
Here’s a quick clip to explain the difference between managing content with the flexiblocks we build for custom sites, versus using WordPress themes:
