WordPress websites for public bodies that are easy to manage every day
We build WordPress websites for public-sector organisations so that information is clear, accessible and meets WCAG 2.1 AA and GDPR requirements, and you can update the content yourselves.
A public body’s website needs more than good looks. It has to help people find information quickly, help staff update it without hassle, and let managers feel at ease about accessibility, data protection and public procurement requirements. That is why our WordPress website development focuses on day-to-day work: news, documents, service descriptions, contacts and other important content can be managed without complicated steps and without depending on one person.
The organisation gets an easy-to-manage WordPress website that any member of staff can update without programming knowledge.
“Tobalt” is a reliable company that meets its commitments on time and honestly. We have worked together for 5 years and have renewed our website again with their help.
Most common problems
News and documents get stuck in a queue
When every change means waiting for a developer or IT specialist, outdated information stays on the website and staff start putting off even simple updates.
The website is hard for some visitors to use
If the structure is confusing, the contrast is weak and the forms are awkward to use with a keyboard, some people simply cannot manage the website — especially when they are looking for urgent information or services.
Data collection and forms create GDPR risks
Contact, registration or enquiry forms often collect more data than needed, and the logic of cookies, privacy information and data processing is not clearly under control.
Website development stalls because of unclear public procurement and responsibilities
When it is not clearly defined what the supplier hands over, how the launch will happen, who will be trained and how the content will be maintained after the project, updating the website becomes a long and risky process.
What we do
Content management that a non-IT team can master
We set up the website so that your team can easily publish news, documents, legal acts, service descriptions, staff contacts, FAQs, competitions or events within a clear structure.
Benefit: Departments will be able to upload news, change contacts or add service information themselves, without waiting for outside help.
Accessibility built in from the first screen
We build websites with clear navigation, a logical information structure, understandable page templates and solutions that help achieve WCAG 2.1 AA compliance.
Benefit: Visitors will find it easier to browse, read and fill in forms on both phone and computer, whatever their needs.
Secure administration and responsible access management
We put in place secure login, user permissions, updates and protection measures so that the website administration is reliable and meets public-sector expectations.
Benefit: You will be able to manage the website more securely, with responsibilities clearly divided among staff and a lower risk of disruption.
Forms and data processing designed with GDPR in mind
We design the website’s contact, registration and enquiry forms so that only the necessary data is collected, information about its processing is clearly provided and cookie choices are under control.
Benefit: You will be able to offer digital enquiry or registration options more responsibly and with lower data protection risk.
Handover, training and clear work after launch
After the project your staff receive practical training and a clear logic for using the website: how to publish content, manage pages, keep it up to date and avoid the most common mistakes.
Benefit: The team will be able to maintain the website independently in day-to-day work without getting lost in technical details.

Frequently asked questions
Can the website be built to a public procurement technical specification?
Yes. Before starting we clearly set out the scope of work, features, handover deliverables, training and requirements for accessibility, security and content management. This makes it easier to prepare procurement documents and compare quotes.
How do you ensure WCAG 2.1 AA requirements are met?
We plan accessibility from the very beginning. We take care of a clear structure, understandable navigation, proper contrast, keyboard-operable elements, consistent headings and forms that are easy for all kinds of visitors to use.
Will our staff be able to manage the content themselves without a developer’s help?
Yes. The website management is set up so that editors can independently publish and update the most frequently used content: news, documents, pages, contacts, events and other information. We also train the team to work with the website in everyday situations.
How do you manage GDPR risks if the website has forms and cookies?
We review what data is really needed, how it is collected, where it is passed on and how the visitor is informed about it. Forms, privacy information and cookie choices are designed so that your organisation can handle personal data more clearly and responsibly.
