Bordales Technologies builds custom WordPress websites across South Africa — business sites, WooCommerce stores, and SEO-ready WordPress builds from R8,000.
WordPress website design for South African businesses
New Perspective Studio ranks #3 nationally for 'WordPress website design South Africa' — we know their approach. They build at volume, mostly on Astra/Elementor templates. The sites look clean but load slowly and carry little technical SEO depth.
Bordales Technologies builds custom WordPress sites from scratch — custom PHP themes, no page builders unless specifically requested, manual schema markup, and Core Web Vitals scores above 90. The result is a WordPress site that actually ranks.
We serve businesses across South Africa — Pretoria, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Nelspruit — with the same team and the same standard on every project.

The problem
Why this matters
Many business websites look fine on the surface but do not explain the offer clearly, do not guide visitors, and do not support search visibility. A proper website needs structure, speed, trust, content and action.
Bordales designs websites as business systems: every page has a role, every call-to-action has a purpose, and every section supports credibility, enquiries and long-term SEO growth.
