Guide
What WordPress is good for
WordPress fits corporate websites, blogs, magazines, and small to mid-sized online shops when paired with WooCommerce. It's open-source software licensed under the GPL, extendable through thousands of plugins to cover nearly any function, from forms to multilingual support to appointment booking. For editorial teams without technical background, it's comparatively easy to use, especially since the Gutenberg block editor arrived.
Where WordPress stops being enough
WordPress reaches its limits with very complex data structures, editorial teams of several hundred people needing granular permissions, or strict public-sector requirements. When content needs to reach an app, a website, and other channels at the same time, a traditional CMS is rarely the best fit either. In those cases, TYPO3 or a headless system is worth a look.
Plugins, themes, and what that means for choosing an agency
Because most of the functionality comes from third-party extensions, an agency should be able to disclose which plugins it uses and how well-maintained they are. Ask about the update history of the extensions in use and whether a custom theme or a customized off-the-shelf theme is planned. That affects both cost and how flexible the site will be to change later.
Security and maintenance after launch
WordPress is one of the most frequently attacked systems on the web, usually because the core system, theme, or plugins weren't kept up to date. A serious proposal includes a maintenance contract with defined update cycles, backups, and a clear process for security incidents. Also ask about the planned hosting: managed WordPress hosting automates many of these tasks, ordinary shared hosting typically doesn't.
What a WordPress project costs
A WordPress website with custom design and standard features usually runs €6,000 to €18,000. Add custom plugin development, a membership area, or multisite features for several brands, and costs rise to €18,000 to €50,000. Agencies charge €75 to €130 per hour, with specialized plugin development toward the upper end of that range.

Frequently asked questions
WordPress agencies: questions and answers
What does a WordPress website cost?
A WordPress website with custom design typically costs €6,000 to €18,000. With custom plugin development, a membership area, or multilingual support, costs run €18,000 to €50,000. Agencies charge €75 to €130 per hour.
Is WordPress secure enough for a business?
Yes, as long as the core system, theme, and all plugins are updated regularly. Most successful attacks exploit known vulnerabilities in outdated versions, not weaknesses in the WordPress core itself. A maintenance contract with defined update cycles and backups belongs in every professional proposal, regardless of company size.
WordPress or TYPO3, which is the better fit?
For a single website with a manageable team, WordPress is usually enough and cheaper to build. TYPO3 pays off once many editors work with different permission levels or several websites need to be managed centrally, for example in the public sector or at companies with multiple brands.
How often does WordPress need to be updated?
WordPress flags updates automatically, and the system often installs minor security updates on its own. Major version changes, and plugin updates in particular, should be carried out regularly and deliberately, ideally on a test environment first, so conflicts between extensions don't hit the live website right away.
Can I maintain WordPress myself later on?
In principle, yes: WordPress is designed for editors without programming knowledge, and the block editor covers many content and simple layout changes. Technical tasks like updates, backups, or resolving plugin conflicts still require expertise, which is why a maintenance contract is often worthwhile anyway.
