-
A WordPress agency is a creative studio that designs and builds websites using the WordPress content management system (CMS). There are a lot of ways to work with WordPress – some Harrogate agencies and developers may use pre-built themes and plugins to deliver a simple website quickly, while others will use WordPress as a platform on which they design and code bespoke solutions.
-
One of the biggest reasons for WordPress’s popularity is how easy it is to use, meaning you can absolutely set up a WordPress website yourself with very little development knowledge. There are a lot of off-the-shelf themes and plugins you can use to make a perfectly good web solution. There are drawbacks to this approach, though – more complicated features will be off limits without some developer skills, and adding a lot of plugins to your website will create issues for performance and security. Essentially, a WordPress website is only as good as the developer who built it – you will absolutely get what you pay for.
-
There are plenty of other content management systems out there on the market – Umbraco, Drupal, Craft, Wix, Concrete, Joomla, and many more. While they all have pros and cons, WordPress included, there’s a reason why WordPress is the most widely used. It’s adaptable, easy to use, widely understood and supported, and with a massive comunity of developers working on ways to improve the system. While it might not be right for every single organisation, it’s usually a strong contender that’s worth a look.
-
We think so! Over a million WordPress websites are launched every year. It continues to receive updates and support, maintaining a large, active developer community. Each new WordPress version is straightforward to install on an existing website, making it easier to maintain long-term than many other solutions. It’s here to stay.
-
Yes you do. WordPress is essentially a collection of files in a database – that database needs to be hosted somewhere in order for users to be able to access it through a web browser. Fortunately, many WordPress developers – including Splitpixel – also act as WordPress hosting providers for the websites they build!
