Our WordPress theme
Perfectly: a fast block theme for review and content sites
Perfectly is the theme this site runs on. We built it for our own content sites: comparison tables, verdict boxes, pros and cons and FAQ sections are built in, so a review site does not need a page builder.

What is inside
- Block theme: edit the header, footer, templates and colours in the Site Editor, without code
- Light by design: no jQuery, about 19 KB of CSS, one script under 1 KB, two local variable fonts
- Review blocks: product box, quick picks, comparison table, pros and cons, verdict box, FAQ, callout and affiliate disclosure patterns
- Article layout: breadcrumbs, reading time, automatic table of contents, author box, related posts and a sticky sidebar
- Templates: homepage, blog, article with or without sidebar, page, full-width page, archive, search and 404
- Affiliate safe: links marked as sponsored automatically get
nofollow - Ad ready: ad slots with reserved height, so ads do not shift the layout
- SEO plugin friendly: uses Rank Math or Yoast breadcrumbs when either is active
