Developing Themes and Plugins to add slick functionality to WordPress is what we love doing!
WordPress is an open source, highly standards compliant, web publishing tool. It has an inherent simplicity and elegance of design that makes it suitable for all levels of web publishing. Many online magazines and newspapers now use it, most of the world’s top blogs use it, and a lot of business sites also use it thanks to the low training requirements, easy extendibility, and ease of use.
We specialise in robust, highly tested solutions that minimise ongoing support costs. Our systems are so stable, so well documented and so well thought out that most clients find that they have no need to take out a support contract* with us. It may go against common business logic but we firmly believe that by keeping support costs to a minimum we benefit more in the long run because happy clients will return to us in years to come.
Our rates for plugin and theme development vary according to need and availability, starting at £70+VAT per hour for planned work, through to £100+VAT per hour for emergency work at short notice. Other rates are available on request for support contracts and training.
Advantages of Using Interconnect IT
- UK based company established in 1996. We have history, we have a reputation, and we’re accountable for our work.
- We have good cultural understanding – that means we’re more likely to have a clear understanding of your requirements and needs. In our experience that means we’re far far quicker and use up less of your valuable time.
- If you’re also in the UK you can easily make an appointment to visit our offices.
- Interconnect IT is led by software engineers, not hackers or people who’ve learned a bit of web stuff on the side. That gives us the depth of knowledge and experience to do the difficult things. Prior to moving into the web arena, we were behind some of the most important software implementations in Europe, some of which handle billions of Euros and Pounds in highly trusted environments. If your blog or site is critical to you then you only want to trust people with a solid reputation and approach to work.
- All our work is properly invoiced, logged and traceable – that means you have the right paperwork.
- Everything we do goes through an SVN repository, meaning that all code modifications are logged and rollbacks are trivially easy to carry out.

Come and Visit us in Liverpool
We’re conveniently based in the center of Liverpool – many people particularly enjoy designing with a developer who they can sit next to, bounce ideas around with and get to know well. If this is your preference our offices are a great place to work and close to many of Liverpool’s tourist attractions, making it a particularly attractive day out for many people based in the North West of England and North Wales.
If you prefer we can also come to your own office location, throughout Europe and the World, depending on the work required. In this case you may well be hiring us on a time & labour basis, and we have a specific chargeable rate for work of this nature. Please contact us for more information.
