Custom WordPress Website Design South Africa
Looking for custom web design? We build high-performing WordPress websites with Divi or Elementor, SEO, Google Ads, hosting, and maintenance.
Custom WordPress websites built from scratch. At Bunnypants, we specialize in creating unique WordPress websites tailored to your brand, audience, and functionality needs. Our custom web development approach means we don’t just plug your content into a generic template – we design and build every site from the ground up using powerful visual builders like Divi and Elementor. The result is a website that looks completely yours and is easy for you to manage. In this article, we’ll explain what WordPress website design entails, how tools like Divi and Elementor play a role, and how Bunnypants can take your online presence to the next level with our full suite of WordPress services.
What Is WordPress Website Design?
Simply put, WordPress website design is the process of creating a website using WordPress as the content management system (CMS). WordPress is the world’s most popular website platform – it powers about 43% of all websites on the internet. This popularity comes from WordPress’s flexibility and user-friendliness. With WordPress, developers can build anything from simple blogs to complex e-commerce sites, and clients can easily update content on their own through an intuitive dashboard.
Designing a site on WordPress involves crafting the layout, visuals, and functionality to meet a client’s specific needs. Unlike using a cookie-cutter theme, a custom WordPress design means every element – from the homepage banner to the contact form – is purpose-built for your business. We tailor the colors, typography, images, and features to match your brand identity and goals. The beauty of WordPress is that it separates content from design: once the custom design is in place, you can add or edit content (text, images, blog posts, etc.) without breaking the site’s style.
Using Divi and Elementor for Custom Design
To build custom designs efficiently, our team often utilizes visual page builder plugins such as Divi and Elementor. These tools let us design pages in a drag-and-drop, WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) manner, which speeds up development while still allowing unlimited customization. Both Divi and Elementor are industry-leading WordPress page builders, trusted by millions of websites worldwide:
-
Divi: Divi is a premium WordPress theme and page builder known for its flexibility. It comes with a vast library of pre-made layout packs and modules, yet also allows us to start from a blank canvas. Divi’s visual editor lets us style your site in real-time – we can adjust layouts, colors, fonts, and more, and see the changes instantly. It’s extremely user-friendly and feature-rich, offering dozens of content modules (galleries, sliders, forms, etc.) that we can insert and customize anywhere on a page. With Divi’s power, we can create virtually any layout or design you imagine, then save those custom layouts for reuse or future updates. (As a bonus, Divi’s popularity means it’s well-supported and continuously improved; it’s active on over 2.3 million websites as of late 2023!)
-
Elementor: Elementor is another popular WordPress page builder plugin that we often use. Its interface is highly intuitive – you drag in widgets from a sidebar and customize their settings to build your page. Elementor offers hundreds of design elements and templates, from basic text and image blocks to advanced sliders, testimonial carousels, icons, tabs, and more. If you prefer not to start from scratch, we can even begin with one of Elementor’s many ready-made templates and then tweak it to fit your style. As Elementor specialists, we love this tool because it combines ease-of-use with powerful capabilities. It’s no surprise Elementor has a huge user base (over 12 million sites and counting). For you as the client, a big advantage is that after we hand over the finished site, you can use the Elementor builder to make simple edits or add new content yourself with minimal training.
By mastering builders like Divi and Elementor, Bunnypants delivers custom designs faster and more cost-effectively – without ever compromising on quality or uniqueness. We choose the builder that best fits your project (or even a mix of both), and we’re also fluent in coding when deeper customization is needed. The bottom line is that you get a bespoke website design that doesn’t look like anyone else’s, yet is built on reliable, modern tools that make ongoing maintenance a breeze.
Why Choose a Custom WordPress Design?
You might wonder why invest in a custom design when there are countless premade WordPress themes out there. The truth is, a custom WordPress website design offers many benefits that pre-made templates simply can’t match:
-
Unique Branding: A custom design ensures your website is a true reflection of your brand. We incorporate your logos, brand colors, and preferred style into every element of the site. This creates a cohesive brand experience – visitors will immediately recognize your company’s look and feel. You won’t be stuck with someone else’s template that dozens of other businesses use. Instead, your site will stand out and look professional, which builds credibility with your audience.
-
Tailored to Your Audience: We design with your target audience in mind. That means structuring the site for optimal user experience and conversion. Whether your visitors are patients looking for medical information or industrial clients seeking technical specs, we arrange content in a way that makes it easy for them to find what they need. Custom navigation menus, page layouts, and interactive elements can be built to support your specific user journeys. This user-centric approach keeps visitors engaged longer and encourages them to take action (like contacting you or making a purchase).
-
Flexible Functionality: With a custom build, we can implement exactly the features and functionality you require. Need an online booking system? A client portal? Advanced forms or integrations with CRM software? No problem – we aren’t limited by what a pre-packaged theme offers. Our developers can integrate plugins or write custom code to add any special functionality your business needs. Custom WordPress development is inherently more scalable; as your business grows or changes, your website can be extended without having to start over.
-
Performance Optimization: Many off-the-shelf themes come loaded with features and code you might not use, which can slow down your site. In contrast, a custom-designed WordPress site is built lean – we include only what’s necessary. This typically means faster load times and better performance. We prioritize clean code and follow best practices to ensure your site runs smoothly. Responsive design is also a core part of our development: every website we create is mobile-friendly and adapts to different screen sizes. This is crucial, considering that as of 2025 about 62% of global web traffic comes from mobile devices. If your site isn’t responsive and quick to load, you risk losing more than half your potential visitors. (In fact, Google research shows 53% of mobile users will abandon a site that takes over 3 seconds to load.) Our custom approach helps avoid those pitfalls, giving users a fast and seamless experience on phones, tablets, and desktops alike.
-
SEO Advantage: A custom WordPress design sets a strong foundation for Search Engine Optimization (SEO). We can structure the site exactly how search engines like it – for example, creating clean URLs, proper heading hierarchies, and fast-loading pages. We ensure each page has relevant title tags and meta descriptions, and we can implement any schema or special SEO markup if needed. By building the site with SEO in mind from the start, you have a better chance of ranking higher on Google for your target keywords. (And if you choose to engage our ongoing SEO services later, having a well-built site will make those efforts even more effective.)
In short, custom design = freedom. You’re not constrained by someone else’s theme limitations. Your website can grow with you and truly support your business goals. It’s a one-time investment for a long-term asset that will serve you for years to come.
Our WordPress Web Design Process
Creating a successful website is a collaborative effort. Over 21 years of industry experience, Bunnypants has refined a structured process to ensure each web design project runs smoothly. We guide you through every step, making the experience both professional and enjoyable. Here’s an overview of how we work on a typical custom WordPress web design project:
-
Discovery & Planning: We start by getting to know your business, goals, and requirements. In this phase, our team will discuss your vision, target audience, and any specific functionality you need. We might review your existing brand materials or website (if you have one) to gather insights. This is also when we define the project scope and timeline. Our project manager will outline all the milestones so you know exactly what to expect and when.
-
Design & Prototype: Next, our design team creates the visual concept for your site. We’ll typically produce wireframes or mockups of key pages (like the homepage) to nail down the layout and content structure. Once you provide feedback and approve a direction, we move to a full design prototype – a detailed representation of how the site will look and feel. This stage is highly collaborative and iterative: we welcome your input to ensure the design truly resonates with your brand and audience.
-
Development: With the design approved, our developers bring it to life on WordPress. We build out the site using clean code and the chosen page builder (e.g., Divi or Elementor) for the content layouts. We also implement any special features and functionalities during this phase. Because we use modern tools, you might be able to see portions of the site live on a staging server as we develop – it’s exciting to watch your site taking shape! Throughout development, we rigorously test the site on different browsers and devices to guarantee everything works correctly and looks great.
-
Content Integration & SEO: A website isn’t complete without content. We help integrate your content (or we can assist in creating it, if needed). This includes placing your text, images, and videos into the design in an appealing way. At the same time, we optimize on-page SEO elements: we ensure each page has an SEO-friendly title, meta description, and header tags targeting your keywords. If you’re targeting local customers, we’ll weave in local SEO signals (like your city/region names). Our goal is to launch your site already primed for search engines to index and rank it.
-
Review, Testing & Launch: Before going live, we do a thorough review with you. We walk you through the entire website, gather any final feedback, and make necessary tweaks. We also conduct final quality assurance tests – clicking every link, submitting forms, checking loading speed, and double-checking responsive behavior. When everything is perfect, it’s time to launch! We handle the technical deployment, whether it’s migrating to your domain or setting the site from “staging” to “live”. The launch is an exciting moment, but we’re careful to do it in a way that avoids downtime.
-
Training & Ongoing Support: After launch, we don’t disappear. We provide training to your team on how to use the WordPress dashboard and the Divi/Elementor builder (if you wish to make updates). You’ll learn how to edit text and images, publish blog posts, and perform other common tasks. We empower our clients to take control of their site. Of course, we’re always here to help post-launch as well – whether it’s adding new features down the road or providing maintenance and support (more on our maintenance services later). Our relationship with clients is long-term and client-focused, and we pride ourselves on human-centric support and education.
Throughout this process, communication is key. You’ll have a dedicated project manager as your point of contact, keeping you updated at each stage. Thanks to our structured workflow and experience, we can efficiently go from concept to live website, typically in a matter of weeks (depending on project size). We take the stress out of web design for you – handling all the technical details – so you can focus on your business.

Beyond Design: Our Full Suite of WordPress Services
Building a beautiful website is just the beginning. For your online presence to truly thrive, you need more than design – you need visibility, stability, and ongoing care. Bunnypants is not only a design studio, but a full-service WordPress agency. We offer a range of services to support your website after (and even before) it goes live. Here are some of the key WordPress-related services we provide to help our clients succeed:
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Even the best website won’t deliver results if no one can find it. That’s why SEO is such a vital part of our offerings. Our SEO services help your site rank higher on Google so that your target customers can discover you when they search. We offer various SEO packages, including:
-
On-Page SEO: We optimize the content and HTML of your webpages to be search-engine-friendly. This includes tweaking titles, meta tags, headings, and keyword usage, as well as improving content quality and relevance. On-page SEO ensures Google understands what each page is about and can index it properly.
-
Advanced/Technical SEO: Beyond basic content tweaks, we handle technical improvements that can boost your rankings. This might involve improving site speed, fixing broken links, creating XML sitemaps, adding schema markup, and ensuring your site is mobile-friendly (which, as mentioned, is crucial for SEO). We keep up with the latest SEO best practices and algorithm changes to continuously adapt your site for optimal performance.
-
Local SEO: If your business serves a specific geographic area, local SEO is essential. We help optimize your site for local searches (for example, “lawyer in Johannesburg” or “medical clinic in Pretoria”). This involves adding location-based keywords, setting up and managing your Google Business Profile, building local citations, and encouraging customer reviews. Since 46% of all Google searches have local intent, a strong local SEO strategy can drive a ton of qualified traffic to businesses like restaurants, clinics, or service providers targeting a local clientele.
-
Keyword Research & Tracking: Our team conducts thorough keyword research to identify the search terms your potential customers are using. We then map these keywords to your content strategy so that your site is providing the information people are looking for. Once we start optimizing, we also track keyword rankings over time. You’ll get reports showing how your website is climbing up the search results for important terms, and we’ll adjust strategies based on the data.
SEO is not a one-time job – it’s an ongoing process. Bunnypants offers monthly SEO plans to continually improve and maintain your rankings. We provide transparent reporting so you can see the progress. The goal is to increase your organic (free) traffic and, ultimately, generate more leads or sales through sustained higher visibility. If you’re interested in boosting your Google rankings, be sure to check out our SEO services page or contact us for a customized SEO plan. 📈
Search Engine Marketing (SEM) – Google Ads
For businesses that want immediate online visibility, Search Engine Marketing is the way to go. Bunnypants can manage your Google Ads campaigns as part of our WordPress services. Google Ads (formerly AdWords) is Google’s advertising platform that lets you run paid ads in search results and across the web. With our SEM service, we handle everything for you:
-
Campaign Setup: We research and select the best keywords to bid on for your industry, write compelling ad copy, and set up targeting options to reach your ideal audience. Whether you want to target the whole of South Africa or just your local city, we configure the settings accordingly.
-
Ongoing Management: Once ads are live, we don’t set-and-forget. We continually monitor the campaigns, adjusting bids and keywords to optimize performance. Our team analyzes which ads are converting and which are not, then fine-tunes them or reallocates budget to maximize ROI. We also manage your Google Ads budget to ensure you’re getting the most results for each Rand (or Dollar) spent.
-
Reporting & Insights: You’ll receive regular reports on how your ads are doing – impressions, clicks, click-through rate, conversions, cost per click, etc. We break down the data into insights that make sense for your business (for example, which services or products are getting the most interest via ads). This transparency helps you see the value in what you’re spending and adjust marketing strategies if needed.
Combining SEO and Google Ads can be very powerful. SEO builds your organic presence over time, while Google Ads can drive traffic immediately. For new websites, running ads at launch can help you get visibility and start generating leads while the organic rankings are still growing. Over time, as your SEO strengthens, you can dial back ads or keep them for particularly competitive keywords and promotional campaigns. Bunnypants provides guidance on this balance as well. If you want instant results on search engines, our Google Ads management services have got you covered. Let’s chat about setting up a high-performing PPC campaign for your business! 💰🎯
Performance WordPress Hosting
Web hosting is the engine that powers your website. We offer performance WordPress hosting solutions to ensure your site is fast, secure, and reliable. While you can host a WordPress site with any generic hosting company, our specialized hosting provides several advantages:
-
Speed & Optimization: Our hosting servers are optimized specifically for WordPress, which means they can handle WordPress code very efficiently. Pages load quickly, and we often include caching mechanisms, CDN (Content Delivery Network) integration, and the latest PHP versions to squeeze out every bit of performance. Fast loading isn’t just good for users – it also benefits your SEO. Google considers page speed as one of the factors in search rankings. Plus, a faster site means better user engagement (remember that over half of users will leave if a site is too slow).
-
Uptime & Reliability: We know that downtime can hurt your business and reputation. Our performance hosting is built for reliability, with strong uptime records and the capacity to handle traffic spikes. Whether you get a sudden surge of visitors from a marketing campaign or have consistently heavy traffic, our hosting is scalable to keep your site up and responsive.
-
Security & Backups (Built-In): Our hosting environment is secured with firewalls and regular malware scanning tuned for WordPress vulnerabilities. We also include automated backups of your site, so your data is always safe. (We’ll talk more about our backup and recovery services in a moment, but rest assured that our hosting customers enjoy peace of mind on this front.) In today’s world of frequent cyber threats, having a secure host is non-negotiable – it’s like having a sturdy lock on your digital front door.
-
Local Advantage: Because Bunnypants is a South African company, we can host your site on servers that make sense for your audience. If your customers are mostly in South Africa, we ensure your site is hosted in a way that gives quick load times for local visitors. If you have a global audience, we leverage networks that deliver good speed worldwide. The goal is always to provide the best experience for your particular user base.
When you host with us, you also get the benefit of single-source support – the same team that built your site is maintaining the server, so if any issue arises, we know exactly how to address it. There’s no finger-pointing between a developer and a hosting company; we handle it all. Interested in hassle-free, high-performance hosting? Take a look at our Premium Web Hosting options or ask us how we can boost your site speed. ⚡️
WordPress Maintenance, Security & Backups
Launching your website is only the first step. Just like a car, a website needs regular maintenance to keep running smoothly. Bunnypants offers comprehensive WordPress maintenance plans to take care of all the ongoing technical tasks, so you don’t have to worry about them. Our maintenance and security services include:
-
Core, Theme & Plugin Updates: WordPress releases core updates periodically (for new features or security patches), and any themes/plugins on your site also issue updates. Applying these updates promptly is important for security and functionality. We handle all updates for you on a scheduled basis, and we test after each update to ensure nothing breaks. This keeps your site up-to-date and secure, without you having to click a thing.
-
Security Monitoring: The popularity of WordPress also means it’s a common target for hackers. In fact, because WordPress powers such a large portion of websites, it faces over 90,000 attacks per minute on average. We take security seriously – our maintenance service includes continuous monitoring for suspicious activity, malware scanning, and implementing best practices to harden your site. We install and manage security plugins (firewalls, login protection, anti-spam, etc.) to reduce the risk of breaches. If we detect any threats or vulnerabilities, we act immediately to neutralize them. Our goal is to prevent hacks before they happen.
-
Regular Backups & Recovery: Imagine the worst-case scenario – a server failure or a malicious attack that takes down your site. Without backups, this could be catastrophic (studies show 60% of companies that lose their data will shut down within 6 months of the disaster). But with Bunnypants managing your site, you’re always prepared for the unexpected. We perform automatic backups of your website files and database, either daily or weekly depending on your needs. These backups are stored securely off-site. If something ever goes wrong, we can quickly restore your site to the last good state, minimizing downtime and avoiding data loss. It’s essentially an insurance policy for your website.
-
Content Updates and Support: Maintenance isn’t just technical fixes; it can also include small content changes or assistance when you need it. Many of our clients prefer to have us on hand to make updates to the site’s text or imagery, upload new blog posts, or add new pages as their business evolves. We’re happy to help with these edits as part of a maintenance agreement. Our team is just an email or phone call away whenever you have a question or request regarding your website.
With our maintenance services, you can rest easy knowing your WordPress site is in good hands. We treat every website we manage as if it were our own. This proactive care not only keeps your site secure, but also extends its lifespan and protects your investment. If you want worry-free website ownership, explore our WordPress Maintenance packages – we’ll handle the nerdy stuff, while you focus on running your business. 🔒💾
Serving South African Businesses (and Beyond)
Bunnypants is proudly based in South Africa, and our primary focus is on South African businesses. We understand the local market, culture, and business landscape, which helps us create websites that resonate with local audiences. Over the past two decades, we’ve worked with clients across Gauteng, the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, and throughout SA. Being a South African studio also means we’re in your time zone and available during your work hours, which makes communication easy and timely.
That said, we also seamlessly assist international clients through remote collaboration. Our team has delivered projects for clients as far afield as Europe and the USA. We leverage video conferencing, email, and project management tools to keep everyone on the same page, no matter the distance. In fact, our efficient remote workflow was honed long before it became the global norm – we’ve always believed in working smarter and embracing online collaboration. So if you’re not in South Africa, don’t let that stop you from reaching out. Great web design knows no borders!
Industries We Serve
Thanks to our broad experience, we’ve had the pleasure of designing websites for a wide range of industries and professions. This includes industrial and manufacturing companies, healthcare providers, professional services, and more. Some of the sectors we frequently work with are:
-
Industrial & Commercial Services: We’ve built sites for engineering firms, construction companies, and B2B service providers that need a strong online profile to showcase their projects and capabilities.
-
Healthcare & Medical: Doctors, clinics, and medical supply companies have trusted us with their web presence. We understand the importance of clarity and trust in this field – our designs for healthcare emphasize easy navigation, patient education, and compliance with health marketing guidelines.
-
Professional Consulting & Legal: From consulting agencies to law firms, we create polished websites that establish credibility. These sites often include detailed service pages, team bios, and content that positions our clients as experts in their field.
-
Commercial Services & SMEs: We love working with small-to-medium enterprises in various sectors – be it a local cleaning company, a travel agency, or an expat-owned startup. We tailor each website to the unique selling points of the business, helping even smaller companies punch above their weight online.
-
Expatriate Businesses: Being in South Africa, we’ve helped several expats set up online ventures or showcase their services to an international market. We’re attuned to the needs of businesses that operate across borders.
Our diverse portfolio means we likely have some insight into your industry – and if not, we’re quick learners! We take time to research and understand the nuances of any sector we’re designing for. This results in websites that truly speak the language of your industry and audience. We do, however, have a focused client profile; for example, we generally do not take on projects for schools or universities, as our expertise is better suited to corporate and small business needs.
No matter your field, our goal is to make your business look great online and help you connect with customers. We combine a professional approach with a conversational, user-friendly tone in the content, striking just the right balance to engage your visitors. If you check out our portfolio, you’ll see clean, effective designs for everything from legal consultants to e-commerce stores.

We’ve honed our process to avoid common pitfalls – you’ll always know the status of your project and have ample opportunities to give feedback. No chaotic last-minute surprises here!
-
Transparent Pricing: We believe in fair, transparent pricing. In fact, many of our services (from design packages to SEO and hosting) have published price lists for everyone to see. This transparency builds trust – you know exactly what you’re getting and for how much. If your project has custom requirements, we provide detailed quotes upfront. There are no hidden fees or nasty billing surprises with Bunnypants; we value long-term relationships over a quick sale.
-
One-Stop Shop Convenience: As you’ve seen, we do a lot more than just web design. By offering design, development, SEO, SEM, hosting, maintenance, and even graphic design for branding, we cover the full 360° needs of establishing and growing an online presence. Many clients appreciate the convenience of having a single reliable partner for all these services. It means smoother coordination (our SEO team talks to our design team, etc.) and ultimately better results. You won’t have to juggle multiple vendors – we handle it all, with cohesive strategy and quality.
-
Client-Centric Approach: At the end of the day, our focus is on making our clients happy and successful. We approach each project with a service mindset – listening to your needs, advising honestly, and going the extra mile to ensure you’re satisfied. Education is a big part of our ethos; we don’t just build and disappear, we train you on how to use your new website and understand the basics if you’re interested. Our support continues long after launch, whether it’s answering questions or scaling your site as you grow. We’re in it for your success, not just ours.
When you choose Bunnypants, you’re choosing a partner who is invested in your business. Our reputation is built on the success stories of our clients. We’re proud to have many repeat customers and referrals, which we see as the ultimate testament to the quality of our work and relationships.
