A case study on a WordPress maintenance

Kinski & Bourke partnered with celebrated author and writer Lollie Barr to rescue a critical digital asset that had fallen victim to technical debt and neglect. While many agencies focus solely on new builds, this project highlighted our expertise in complex WordPress repairs and site troubleshooting for established professionals whose websites are vital to their brand reputation.

Our role began with a deep technical audit to identify the root causes of performance instability. The site was suffering from outdated plugins, core software vulnerabilities, and theme conflicts that required immediate WordPress fixes. We executed a comprehensive rigorous restoration process, resolving critical errors and securing the database against potential threats. We transitioned the site from a state of volatility to a secure, high performance environment.

This project demonstrated that a successful digital presence requires more than just a launch; it demands professional ongoing WordPress maintenance. By implementing a structured update schedule and proactive monitoring, we ensured Lollie Barr’s platform remains secure and fast. This case study underscores our ability to step in when things break, providing the WordPress troubleshooting and technical support necessary to turn a liability back into a high performing asset.

Lollie Barr

It was situation critical. My previous designer had lost interest in finishing my website a year ago and had left it unsecured. Malicious malware had been implanted deep in the coding. Time was running out. My entire world was threatening to come crumbling down if I didn’t get this issue fixed.

Well, that may be pushing it, but I’m a writer, so I may be prone to over-exaggeration on occasion. But it is no exaggeration that Kinski & Bourke were absolutely brilliant at fixing all the issues on my website. For the past year, I’d foolishly chucked money at designers on freelancer sites to get my website up and functional.

Then I found Anthony. Not only did he secure my website, but he also gave it a complete service and a thorough design overhaul. I couldn’t be more delighted with the results, or with the explementary friendly, above the call of duty service that he offered. Thanks, guys. I’d recommend Kinski & Bourke to anyone.

Gold Coast web design costs depend on complexity of custom WordPress builds with eCommerce functionality. Unlike agencies using templates, we build custom coded websites that justify the investment through superior performance, security, and longevity. We provide transparent fixed price quotes tailored to your specific requirements.

A standard Gold Coast business website takes 4 to 8 weeks from initial consultation to launch. Complex eCommerce or custom functionality projects may take 8 to 12 weeks. We work efficiently while ensuring quality and thorough testing before your site goes live.

No. While we serve Gold Coast businesses, we work remotely from Sydney with clients across Australia. Zoom calls, screen sharing, and collaborative tools mean we can work together seamlessly. Many of our Gold Coast clients appreciate that we bring Sydney agency experience to South East Queensland projects.

Three things set us apart: First, we build custom WordPress themes from scratch, no templates or page builders that bloat your site. Second, we have 20+ years of experience across major Australian brands, bringing enterprise level expertise to Gold Coast businesses. Third, we provide genuine ongoing support, not just a website launch and disappearance.

Every website we build includes foundational SEO: proper heading structure, meta tags, schema markup, fast loading speeds, and mobile optimisation. For businesses wanting to actively compete in Gold Coast search results, we offer dedicated SEO services including local SEO, content strategy, and link building.

Absolutely. We do WooCommerce development for Gold Coast retailers, from surf shops to boutiques to businesses with hundreds of products. We integrate Australian payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal, Afterpay), shipping calculators (Australia Post), and inventory management systems.

Yes. While we’re based in Sydney, we understand that Gold Coast businesses need websites that work hard during Schoolies, the Indy, and the steady flow of visitors throughout the year.
