WordPress emails aren't getting through.
Contact form submissions disappearing. Order confirmations going to spam. We configure WordPress SMTP, set up SPF and DKIM, and fix the root cause — not just a temporary workaround.
Signs your WordPress email is broken
If any of these sound familiar, PHP mail is almost certainly the problem.
How we fix it
We replace unreliable PHP mail with proper SMTP and authenticate your domain properly.
We check your current mail config, DNS records, and SPF/DKIM/DMARC — identifying exactly what's failing.
We replace PHP mail with a reputable transactional provider (Postmark, SendGrid, or Mailgun) via WP Mail SMTP.
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records configured on your DNS so major providers trust your outbound mail.
Every email type tested end-to-end — forms, orders, password resets. We confirm inbox placement before signing off.
Why it's broken
PHP mail — WordPress's default — is fundamentally unreliable.

Common questions
No — they're separate. SMTP setup only affects mail sent by your WordPress site (forms, orders, resets). Your Google Workspace inbox is unaffected.
Yes, but most small sites qualify for a free tier (Postmark and SendGrid both offer up to ~100 emails/day free). Paid plans start at around £8–15/month for higher volumes.
The technical work takes a few hours. DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate, but we schedule the work around that.
Yes. WooCommerce uses WordPress's mail system, so configuring SMTP fixes all transactional emails — orders, status updates, customer notifications, everything.
