Adding a blog to your WordPress website

We add a blog to your existing WordPress site that matches your design: blog index, single post template, categories, SEO and your first formatted posts.

  • Typical scope approx. 4 h
  • Roughly 200 € + VAT
  • Assessment and estimate are free

You have a website but nowhere to publish news, guides or articles. WordPress has a posts system built in, but in many designs it is bare-bones or missing altogether. We build the blog so it looks like part of your site, not a bolted-on extra.

The work happens on your existing site and in your existing design. At the end you can add posts yourself and they appear properly formatted.

What the work includes

  • Blog index. A list of posts in your design, paginated, with image, date and excerpt.
  • Single post template. Title, image, body, date and navigation to the previous and next post.
  • Categories and tags. A structure and archive pages for them, helping readers find similar content.
  • Author box. The author’s name, photo and short bio at the end of the post.
  • Related posts. Suggestions of articles on the same topic to keep readers on the site.
  • RSS feed. Making sure the WordPress RSS feed works and outputs the right content.
  • SEO and schema. Meta titles and descriptions, an XML sitemap and article schema.org JSON-LD markup. We use your SEO plugin.
  • Sharing. Simple share links and social previews (Open Graph).
  • Comments. Together we decide whether comments are on, moderated or off, and set up spam protection.
  • First posts. We format your texts properly: heading hierarchy, images, links and categories.

What we need from you

  • Access to the site admin and details of the theme or page builder you use.
  • Post texts and images if you want us to publish the first ones.
  • Decisions on comments and the author box, and any category wishes.

What is not included

  • Writing articles and content strategy. Broader SEO work belongs under SEO.
  • A general redesign of the site. See web development.
  • Publishing posts for you on a regular basis. That is part of website management.

Who this is for

It suits a business that wants to publish news or expert content and build search traffic over time. If the theme itself is new, theme installation may help first. If you already have a blog that looks poor, we can redo it while keeping the existing content.

approx. 4 h Typical scope
50 € Hourly rate + VAT
200 € Estimated total

This is an estimate, not a quote. We’ll review your site free of charge first and tell you the exact time required. If the job turns out smaller, you pay less – we bill for the time actually spent.

What our clients say

Long-standing partnerships say more than any slogan. Several of the clients below have been with us for over seven years.

We have worked with Birk for eight years now. This time we wanted a new website for the company, and the goals were set high from the very start – in visuals, functionality, manageability and SEO. Thanks to Birk’s professional approach we got a website of a high standard that met our expectations 100%. The collaboration went smoothly because Birk is a very good and direct communicator, helpful, dependable and conscientious.

As a client you sometimes feel that you don’t know exactly how, and sometimes not even exactly what. But our collaboration has produced a website that our own people value and others try to copy. Thank you for the patience, the good ideas and the understanding. Thank you for visualising it and making it visible. I liked that Zezz keeps its word and stays flexible.
