WordPress specialists
The website is built on the platform VTA designs, maintains and optimises every day.
South Africa focused
Clear structures, local contact behaviour and responsive layouts for South African businesses.
Built for growth
A clean foundation that can expand with new pages, SEO, AI Visibility and business requirements.
MORE THAN A DIGITAL BROCHURE
Your website should help customers understand, trust and contact you
A good business website explains the offer clearly, makes important information easy to find and guides visitors towards a useful action. Design, content structure, mobile behaviour and page speed all contribute to that experience.
VTA plans each website around the pages the business actually needs. A three-page website gives a focused business a credible core presence. A five-page website creates more room for services, proof and search-focused page structure. Larger requirements are scoped individually.
Every build starts with practical questions:
- Which pages are necessary for the customer journey?
- What content, photographs and brand material are available?
- Which calls to action should appear across the website?
- Does the project need forms, bookings, ecommerce or integrations?
- Who will update and maintain the website after launch?
- Is basic SEO enough, or is a complete SEO programme required?
WHAT EVERY VTA WEBSITE INCLUDES
A practical WordPress foundation for modern businesses
The exact layouts and functionality follow the chosen package, but these standards apply to every multi-page website.
01
Responsive design
Layouts are adjusted for desktop, tablet and mobile instead of relying on one desktop view to shrink automatically.
02
Clear page structure
Pages, headings, navigation and calls to action are organised around the information customers need.
03
WordPress control
The finished website uses WordPress so authorised users can manage content and extend the site over time.
04
Enquiry routes
Contact forms, click-to-call details, WhatsApp links and visible calls to action make it easier to respond.
05
Speed-conscious setup
Images, layouts and plugins are kept purposeful to support a quicker, more stable visitor experience.
06
Launch foundations
Basic security, backups, search settings and handover checks are completed before the website goes live.

Package assumptions and exclusions
Prices are in South African rand. Domain registration, hosting, premium licences, paid imagery, full copywriting, ecommerce, advanced integrations and ongoing maintenance are excluded unless listed or added to the written proposal. Timelines begin after VTA receives the required content, approvals and access. Any applicable tax or additional cost is confirmed before work begins.
BASIC SEO INCLUDED
A search-friendly foundation—not a complete SEO campaign
The three-page and five-page packages include basic on-page SEO and the technical steps needed to submit the new website to Google. This helps search engines access and understand the site, but it does not guarantee indexing, rankings, traffic or enquiries.
- Page titles and meta descriptions for included pages
- Logical heading structure and clean page URLs
- Image alt-text setup for supplied website images
- Basic internal links and indexation checks
- Google Search Console connection where access is available
- XML sitemap submission and launch indexing request
Full SEO is a separate service
A complete SEO programme can include deeper keyword and competitor research, technical analysis, priority-page optimisation, local SEO, content development, measurement and ongoing improvements. These services are not implied by the basic SEO included in a website build.
CLEAR PROJECT DELIVERABLES
What your website project should produce
The final website should be usable, manageable and ready for real customers—not simply an attractive draft.
01
A complete page structure
Agreed pages, navigation, headings and calls to action built around the business and visitor journey.
02
Responsive page layouts
Purposeful desktop, tablet and mobile layouts checked before the public launch.
03
A working enquiry path
Configured contact details, forms and calls to action that visitors can use.
04
Launch and handover
Final checks, deployment, search submission and guidance for the next stage of the website.
A CLEAR BUILD PROCESS
From website brief to launch
Progress depends on timely content, access and approvals. Custom projects may require additional discovery and review stages.
01
Discover
Confirm the business, audience, page count, functionality, content and main calls to action.
02
Structure
Plan the navigation, page purpose, content hierarchy and conversion routes before detailed design.
03
Design
Build the approved WordPress layouts and apply the brand consistently across the site.
04
Review
Complete responsive checks and work through the included consolidated revision rounds.
05
Launch
Complete final technical checks, connect measurement, submit the sitemap and publish the website.
WORDPRESS WEBSITE SPECIALISTS
A website built on a platform your business can grow with
WordPress provides control over pages, navigation, content, metadata and future functionality. VTA builds and maintains WordPress websites daily, allowing design, hosting, maintenance and later SEO work to be coordinated on the same platform.
A brochure website can later expand with more services, articles, location pages or integrations. Ecommerce and advanced functionality are scoped separately so that the initial package remains clear and the website is not overloaded with features the business does not need.

CLIENTS
What Our Clients Say
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Clear answers before your website project begins
Understand the page scope, content responsibilities, SEO limits and ongoing requirements before choosing a package.
VTA offers a three-page WordPress website for R6,999 once-off and a five-page WordPress website for R9,999 once-off. Larger websites, ecommerce, advanced forms, bookings, integrations and content-heavy projects are quoted after a project consultation.
The three pages are agreed during the brief. A common structure is Home, About and Contact, but the package can use a different three-page structure if it better fits the customer journey.
The five pages are agreed during planning. A service business might choose Home, About, Services, a priority service or proof page, and Contact. The page structure should follow the information customers need rather than a fixed naming template.
The fixed packages include placement and light formatting of client-supplied final copy and images. Research-led copywriting, extensive rewriting, brand messaging and large image sourcing requirements are quoted separately.
No. Basic SEO provides a sound launch foundation, including page titles, descriptions, headings, clean URLs, basic internal links, Search Console connection and sitemap submission. Rankings depend on competition, content, authority and ongoing work outside a website build.
Yes. Where the required access is available, VTA connects Google Search Console, checks indexation settings and submits the XML sitemap. Submission does not guarantee that Google will index every page or determine when it appears in search results.
Yes. The included pages are configured and checked for desktop, tablet and mobile. Third-party widgets or integrations may have their own responsive behaviour and are assessed within the agreed project scope.
A three-page website commonly requires about seven to ten working days and a five-page website about ten to fifteen working days after all required content, access and approvals are received. The confirmed timeline depends on availability, feedback and functionality.
They are not automatically included in the once-off design prices unless listed in the final proposal. VTA can provide domain, WordPress hosting and maintenance as separate services so the client can see the ongoing costs clearly.
Yes. WooCommerce, product catalogues, payments, bookings, memberships, advanced forms and third-party integrations are custom projects because their requirements, testing and ongoing responsibilities differ from a standard brochure website.
