Frequently asked questions
Yes — for content-rich marketing sites, ecommerce via WooCommerce, and publishing, WordPress is still the most productive stack. Paired with modern frontends (headless) it's even stronger.
No — we recommend it when it fits. For SaaS, dashboards or complex products, we recommend a custom Next.js stack instead.
Yes — audit, cleanup, speed, security and long-term maintenance. See WordPress Speed Optimization and Maintenance & Support.
Pricing is quoted after discovery based on scope, team shape and delivery timeline. A custom theme, WooCommerce store and headless WordPress build are each scoped differently, and we confirm exact cost in a written proposal after discovery.
Classic WordPress is simpler and cheaper for marketing sites and light ecommerce. Headless WordPress (WP as CMS + Next.js frontend) is better for large content sites, multi-channel publishing, and when your frontend team already works in React.
Yes — we migrate from Drupal, Joomla, Squarespace, Wix and custom CMS platforms to WordPress. Content, SEO structure, redirects and media are all handled.
For most projects: Kinsta, WP Engine, or Cloudways. For cost-sensitive builds: Cloudflare-fronted VPS with object caching. We match hosting to traffic, budget and the performance targets of your project.
