Build & custom code

Divi & WordPress
Divi that doesn’t slow things down.
Divi can do a great deal, and that is exactly why a site quickly becomes overloaded. We keep Divi sites lean so they load quickly and remain easy to maintain, even years later.
What a Divi agency actually does.
Divi is a page builder theme by Elegant Themes for the WordPress content management system. Instead of coding every page, you design the layout visually by drag and drop, directly in the browser. This ease of use is precisely why so many WordPress websites run on Divi, and also why builds without a plan quickly become messy. Divi is only one building block, though. As a WordPress agency, we take care of the bigger picture around themes, plugins and maintenance.
As an agency, we work on the three areas where things tend to go wrong day to day:
- Layout and Theme Builder: We create headers, footers and templates using the Divi Theme Builder, so the entire theme can be maintained centrally rather than page by page.
- Plugins and extensions: We check which plugins are genuinely needed. Every additional plugin adds to the loading time, so we deliberately keep the stack lean.
- Updates and maintenance: Divi and WordPress need regular updates. We test them beforehand in a staging environment so that an update doesn't disrupt your live site.
An honest assessment: for editorial teams who maintain their own content, the Divi Builder is a sensible choice. If you need the fastest possible load times and full control over every line of code, a leaner stack is often the better option. We'll tell you upfront which route suits your project, and whether you'd be better off having your website rebuilt or continuing to develop your existing Divi base.
faq
Frequently asked questions.
Is Divi still worth it today?
For visually edited sites with active editors: yes. Divi 5 is significantly faster than older versions. For premium performance, Astro is the better choice.
How much does a Divi site cost?
That depends on the scope. A standard setup is significantly more streamlined than a custom build with bespoke module development. You’ll receive a specific quote following the free audit call.
Do you migrate from the old Divi theme to Divi 5?
Yes, regularly. The performance gain is usually 30 - 50 %, without breaking the design.
Can I edit the site myself after launch?
Yes, that's Divi's main advantage. A visual editor, very extensive community documentation and easy onboarding for editors. On request, we also focus on responsive web design during the build, so your site looks good on every device.
What is the difference between Divi 4 and Divi 5?
Divi 4 is the established version that has been running on millions of WordPress websites for years. Divi 5 is the rebuilt new generation from Elegant Themes, with leaner code and noticeably better load times. Updating to Divi 5 is particularly worthwhile for older builds. We migrate existing layouts without losing the design.
Do I have to buy the Divi theme myself?
The licence for the Divi theme is held directly with Elegant Themes and belongs to you. We set up the licence, keep the theme, plugins and WordPress up to date and, if you wish, can manage the entire setup for you.
