We engaged Colin and the team at Monogram to build a new website for Teralytics. They had a positive influence on our brand and digital presence and the website is built in a way that allows us to evolve it in line with our business. The online data dashboards have proven to be a valuable asset too.

Themes and custom builds
A quick online search for WordPress themes and templates reveals 1,000’s, of which many are free with the remainder available at a relatively low fee. These themes and templates offer an incredibly quick path to having an online presence, with limited to no technical knowledge required.
we at Monogram custom-build the vast majority of our sites. A custom site ensures you have a secure, performant, cheaper to maintain, and reliable site.
The downside to using off-the-shelf WordPress templates and themes is that they come with lots of surplus functionality and code, all of which will slow your site, cause potential bugs and security risks.
For these reasons we at Monogram custom-build the vast majority of our sites. A custom site ensures you have a secure, performant, cheaper to maintain, and reliable site.
Functionality through Plug-ins
The beauty of the open-source model is that businesses and individuals can develop and offer plug-ins which offer easy-to-install functionality to the WordPress community. Over 50,000 currently exist and they are often available for a very reasonable fee (although ongoing subscriptions can accumulate), or free.

The process by which plug-ins are introduced to the community is structured and so a level of quality is ensured. However, over time the maintenance and reliability of these plug-ins can fade. These can therefore represent a liability for your business.
At Monogram, we utilise plug-ins as they bring functionality at a fraction of the cost of developing from scratch, but to safeguard our clients from potential downfalls, we add a layer of monitoring software to continuously monitor and evaluate their performance so we can react when required.
Optimising for SEO
Out of the box, WordPress can provide a lightweight and SEO-friendly website. Certain, and very common Plug-ins such as Yoast SEO instantly give SEO novices the tools they need to apply a structure and level of visibility to their site. However, as mentioned above, the use of Themes and Plug-ins quickly dilutes a website's authority in search engines if you are not careful.

Our website maintenance packages can include ongoing SEO reporting, recommendations and optimisations - after all the value of a website is determined by the number of those who discover it, and convert it into customers.
Summary
WordPress is where we started, it is what we love, and it is where we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
