Mobile-First Design That Converts

I've built hundreds of WordPress sites. Know what I learned? Speed matters more than anything else. A slow website kills conversions. We build sites that load in under 2 seconds and actually get people to call you.

Slow WordPress Sites Killing Conversions

Industry average load time: 8-12 seconds. Your customers are on 3G connections. They're stressed (burst pipe, locked out, legal trouble). They have zero patience.

Slow sites kill conversions. Every second of delay costs you customers. Google ranks slow sites lower. Your competitors with fast sites get all the calls.

Sub-2-Second Load Times

We build with Astro—a modern static site generator that's fast by default. Combined with aggressive optimization: image compression, code minification, lazy loading, CDN implementation.

Result: 1.8s average load time across 500+ sites. Core Web Vitals: 99.7% pass rate. Mobile conversions increase 5.25x on average. Speed = revenue.
