WordPress or a custom build: which one do you need?

For most small businesses, WordPress is the sensible choice, and our Starter website runs on it. Changing your opening hours or adding a photo is done in the browser, with no developer involved. With a light theme and only a few plugins, it loads fast and is easy to keep secure.

Custom development is worth the extra money when you need something closer to software than a website: a booking system, a customer portal, an internal tool, or links between the tools you already use. A template fights you on that kind of job, where custom code can follow the way you work. We built Grafta, our quoting and invoicing app for tradespeople, this way.

We build both, so we don't mind which one you pick. Send us a few lines about the business, what the site has to do and roughly what you want to spend, and we'll reply with the one we'd go for and why.
