Headless WordPress

Whether you're looking to develop a headless WordPress website, integrate the WordPress CMS with your existing headless front-end or you want to decouple only a single part of your solution – we can help.

Hello flexible

Our headless WordPress websites are designed for flexibility and speed. Say goodbye to traditional monolithic setups and embrace a decoupled architecture that enhances performance, scalability, and security.

Blazing fast

Get ready for a lightning-fast website with headless WordPress architecture. By separating the frontend and backend, your site is optimized for maximum speed, providing your visitors with an enhanced browsing experience.

Fully customisable

With the freedom to choose any frontend technology, you can have custom, interactive user interfaces that align perfectly with your brand. Captivate your audience from the moment they land on your site. Some of the tools we use include:

Next-gen content

Take your content strategy to the next level. With decoupled architecture, you can distribute your content across multiple channels; a headless CMS can power multiple frontends from the same content.

Security-first

Security is paramount in today’s digital landscape, and our headless WordPress solution is designed with safety in mind. With headless sites, data is isolated from your frontend, drastically reducing your site’s vulnerability to attacks.

Frequently asked questions

Headless is a website architecture that separates the front-end display of a website from the CMS. This allows the website to use data from WordPress seamlessly alongside content from different systems. Say you have a separate system for room booking data; by using headless you could display booking availability next to content about your room (entered in WordPress, of course)
There are lots of benefits, but the biggest is not being tied to one tech stack. This gives you access to new, highly-performant frameworks, which massively boost speed. For organisations, it allows teams to keep using the same tools and systems they always use, without the burden of keeping all the data in sync.
Headless allows organisations to use modern stacks to seamlessly integrate different parts of their online architecture. But not every project is going to be suitable for headless WordPress. For example, some multisite networks may work better with traditional architecture. We'll be open and honest and work with you to determine the best solution to meet your goals.
The good news about headless WordPress is you don't have to redevelop your entire website to start using it. By leveraging WordPress's built-in REST APIs, you can start to take advantage of the speed and flexibility of headless on any of the websites we develop. This is sometimes called "hybrid", and it allows maximum flexibility and value when developing headless websites.
It depends! Some solutions require a fully decoupled approach, while others use a "hybrid" between headless and traditional WordPress architecture. To achieve this we use a combination of tools including React, Astro, NodeJS, Next.js, Vercel, GraphQL, Elasticsearch and Algolia.
Like WordPress, headless is open-source technology, meaning it is widely supported by development teams. Increasingly, WordPress core is adopting the technologies used in the frontend frameworks that enable headless.
