What does custom WordPress development cost?

Bespoke solutions will always be more expensive than out-of-the-box systems. We want to help you achieve your digital goals by creating something unique – so the cost of custom WordPress development entirely depends on the scope of the project. But we can always tailor a project to suit your budget.

WordPress development agencies can even provide a convenient website migration service for large websites. This means that you won’t have to populate your new website entirely from scratch, particularly useful if you’ve got a large number of products or resources.

“With a modest budget and a tight timeline, Splitpixel worked collaboratively with us to produce a website that really represents Coney. They were able to decipher what we wanted when at times we weren’t entirely sure what this was, and their communication throughout the whole process was excellent.”

WordPress Development FAQ’s

  • A WordPress development 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 development agencies may use pre-built themes and plugins to deliver a simple site 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 site will create issues for performance and security. Essentially, a WordPress site 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 community of developers and agencies 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 sites 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 site, 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 development agencies – including Splitpixel – also act as WordPress hosting and maintenance providers for the sites they build!
