Learn more about Blockify and the story so far
Blockify brings almost 10 years WordPress experience and is committed to providing high quality products and services to forward-thinking businesses
Delivering innovative, high quality products and services to forward thinking WordPress businesses
Blockify stands at the forefront of WordPress innovation, having been one of the earliest companies to wholeheartedly embrace the WordPress Site Editor. Our journey began with classic themes, but ever since the inception of the Site Editor, we have been crafting custom blocks and full-site editing powered themes.
Founded on a passion for web design and a deep understanding of the ever-evolving digital landscape, Blockify is the latest project of a solo enthusiast with over a decade of experience in the WordPress realm. The journey began with a simple yet powerful vision: to create block themes that seamlessly blend aesthetics and functionality.

Meet the founder and solo developer
I’m Lee, a web designer/developer based in Western Australia. I’m currently a freelance developer and spend my spare time working on Blockify. I’ve been working with WordPress since 2015, mostly remotely for product companies and agencies. I’m passionate about everything design-related and creating highly optimized websites using the latest technology. Outside of work, you can find me at the gym, meditating or at the beach with my family and dogs. Thank you for taking the time to check out Blockify, feel free to get in touch if you’d like to know more!
