Callia Web

What Callia Web does

Callia Web Ltd is a Wiltshire-based, UK-domestic WordPress web design agency founded in 2011 by Jo Waltham, operating with a 2-5 person team from Royal Wootton Bassett. The firm builds custom WordPress websites using a content-first, browser-based design methodology rather than static mockups, with delivery centred on mobile responsiveness, WCAG 2.0 accessibility compliance, and SEO optimisation. Core products include tiered brochure-site packages (£1,440 / £2,080 / £2,640), custom-quoted e-commerce builds, brand identity design, and a Website Care Plan subscription (£65/month brochure, £80/month e-commerce) offering backups, security scanning, updates, and up to 30 minutes of monthly support, plus pay-on-demand training and changes at £20 per 15 minutes.

The go-to-market is sales-led and direct: free Calendly consultations, phone, and email enquiries handled by Jo Waltham and Leeann, supported by an SEO/content blog, Facebook and LinkedIn presence, and a portfolio of 19 documented client projects spanning museums, parish councils, heritage initiatives, creative professionals, charities, and SMBs. Technology stack is WordPress-native with the Genesis Framework, the block editor, FacetWP and SearchWP for advanced search, Google Analytics and reCAPTCHA integrations, and a Dappier-powered AI chatbot ('Ask Callia Web') on the company website. The firm is a privately held, bootstrapped limited company with no external investment, no parent, and no disclosed revenue.
