These are the building blocks of a WordPress site from Apply. Nothing outside this list gets installed without a written justification.
We code blocks for the Gutenberg editor: service overview, team page, price table, appointment notice, download list. Your staff assemble new pages from them without a page builder and without breaking the mobile layout.
We define in WordPress who writes, who reviews and who may touch plugins. Drafts wait for approval, and settings stay in the hands of a small group.
German as the main language, English or Italian as a second one via Polylang or WPML, a separate URL for each language and correct hreflang tags so search engines match the versions properly.
An imprint under section 5 of the E-Commerce Act including the media law disclosure, a privacy notice and a cookie banner that only loads analytics and embedded videos after consent, as section 165 TKG 2021 requires.
Contact forms with a data protection notice, spam filtering without annoying picture puzzles and, where needed, a booking flow that reads free slots from Microsoft 365 or Google Calendar.
Two-factor sign-in for every admin account, limited login attempts, caching, images in WebP and a daily backup stored away from the web server.
The schedule is rarely driven by the coding. It depends on how many different page types the site needs and when the copy is ready.
Before anyone talks about colours, we use a video call to list what your team publishes today and plans to publish: news, job ads, events, expert articles. That list defines the blocks we build.
The theme takes shape on a test environment. You create two or three real pages there yourself and quickly see whether the blocks work in daily use.
Copy is moved over or entered fresh, forms are connected to your mailbox or CRM, language versions are linked and redirects from old addresses are prepared.
Go-live with 301 redirects, every account transferred to your company, a training session over Teams or Google Meet and a short document stating who applies which updates and how often.
Once a paid plugin licence lapses, the plugin carries on running while its security patches quietly stop. We come across this constantly on WordPress installations at smaller firms. A form builder or SEO add-on was purchased long ago with the card of an employee who moved on, the yearly charge bounced, and the site kept going unpatched for months. To avoid that, each licence we buy is tied to your firm and to a generic mailbox such as office@ at your domain, and its renewal date is written into the handover notes.
It can, as long as someone takes care of it. Security releases for the core appear regularly. Trouble usually comes from add-ons their authors have given up on, guessable passwords and patches left waiting. Keep the add-on list short, switch on two-factor sign-in and name one person in charge, and WordPress holds up as well as comparable systems.
We check that first. If the theme is lean and the plugins are current, the site can be modernised step by step. If everything hangs on a heavy page builder or an abandoned commercial theme, a new theme is often cheaper. Either way we keep your copy, images and URLs.
Only if you actually sell online. For a law firm, a medical practice or a trade business without a shop, WooCommerce is dead weight that still needs maintenance. If a shop becomes relevant later, it can be added without rebuilding the theme.
With a provider of your choice running data centres in Austria or the EU, for example managed hosting or your own VPS. The contract is in your company name. We can set up the server or work with your existing host as long as it offers current PHP versions and SSH access.
That depends on the number of page types, languages and integrations. After the first video call you receive a quote based on effort, split into phases. Later changes are billed at €110 per hour plus VAT.
Briefly describe what the site should do and whether one already exists. We will reply within one working day with questions and a suggested call time.

We could not find that town. Try another spelling, or choose whichever provincial capital lies closest; as everything is handled remotely, you get the same service in all nine Austrian states.
