About RelyWP

About RelyWP

RelyWP creates WordPress and WooCommerce plugins that help online stores grow.

The company was started by Elliot Sowersby, a UK-based developer who began building with WordPress in 2009.

He moved into full-time WordPress work in 2016 and later founded RelyWP in 2019.

Our Story

Elliot began as a freelance WordPress developer, building custom websites and plugins for many different businesses.

Over the years, he focused more on WooCommerce performance and scaling large stores. His work helped many clients speed up their sites, fix complex issues, and launch custom features.

When RelyWP started, the company offered WordPress care plans, hosting, and support. We worked closely with shops that needed fast, secure, and stable sites.

During this time, we also built several plugins that solved real problems our clients faced.

These plugins grew quickly and became a core part of our business.

As more people started using our plugins, we decided to change direction. We now focus only on plugin development and no longer take on new care plan or hosting clients.

This shift lets us put all our time into improving our products and creating new tools for WooCommerce store owners.

What We Do Now

Today, RelyWP builds and maintains plugins used by thousands of websites.

Our plugins aim to be simple, fast, and reliable.

We release updates often, we fix issues quickly, and we focus on long-term stability.

About Elliot

Elliot has spent more than a decade building with WordPress.

His work includes plugin development, WooCommerce website design, scaling large stores, and building tools used by more than 130,000 websites.

Our Goal

We aim to build plugins that give store owners better control, more trust, and less stress.

We listen to user feedback, plan new features, and work to keep each plugin fast and easy to use.

Looking Ahead

As we now focus fully on plugins, we plan to expand our product line, improve our user experience, add new integrations, and build advanced features that help shops grow.
