Why WordPress Websites Are So Popular
WordPress.com vs WordPress.org
There are two distinct types of WordPress web platforms: WordPress.com and WordPress.org.
WordPress.com is an out-the-box content management system (CMS) that allows you to populate a pre-set website template with your content. It has limited functionality, as it’s effectively just a simple WYSIWYG interface that lets you create a basic website without needing to understand how they work. It’s not really customisable, and doesn’t offer scalability or the ability to add more functionality.
So when we speak about custom WordPress development, this refers to the more powerful open-source platform of WordPress.org. This is the option to choose if you want custom WordPress website development, and it’s the one we’ll focus on for the rest of this article.

Custom WordPress Development FAQs

Its developers should be very familiar with theme customisation, plugin development and integration, API communication and WordPress security. They should also provide IA and UX professionals, and QA experts. Experienced project managers are also a must.
You can have as little or as much control as you prefer. If you’re not comfortable with technical environments, you can communicate with your project manager in plain English, with confidence that your needs will be filtered through to the development and design team.

There are some basic start-up costs when you first start using WordPress. Although you can use thousands of their themes for free, these are not very customisable and aren’t designed for large-scale commercial use. You can expect to pay either a once-off or an annual fee to use the more advanced theme templates.
Other initial costs include annual domain registration, which is a nominal amount, as well as your monthly website hosting fee. You may also have to pay for some of the WordPress plugins you use, whether they’re native to the service or provided by a third-party developer. Depending on who supplies it, this can be a one-time charge, an annual one or a monthly fee.
WordPress development costs hinge on many other factors, including:
The size of your website.
The type of functionality you need (such as e-commerce).
Theme customisation.
The number and type of resources required to develop your website.
