Let us show you why we believe we are the best WordPress development agency in the UK.

WordPress is the most used content management system (CMS) worldwide. In fact, 34% of websites on the internet use WordPress. This means that 1 in 4 websites you visit is likely to be a WordPress site!

It offers users the ability to build anything they like, from a hobby blog to an all-out e-commerce or news site. It also has a large community of WordPress developers that regularly create and update plugins, themes and widgets. This allows users to truly create anything they like! Not to mention, it’s an open-source CMS, meaning it’s completely free to use.

One of the unique features of WordPress is that it is simple and complex at the same time. Marketers and content creators can easily create and edit content using its simple interface. And developers can use its under-the-hood complexity to create complex portals, enterprise sites, applications and much more.

What is WordPress?

WordPress is an open-source website creation tool that is written in PHP. In other words, it’s one of the easiest, most powerful blogging and website creation tools around. It allows users to create fully-featured websites using just their browsers – no coding experience necessary.

In recent years, WordPress has developed from a core blogging tool to a more advanced website and application CMS. WordPress allows you to create eCommerce stores, membership sites, forums, business websites, portfolios and anything else you can dream of. Whatever your requirements, WordPress can create it.

WordPress isn’t just used by independent bloggers and hobbyists. In fact, some of the worlds biggest companies use WordPress to power their websites and applications.
