Why WordPress Is Still the Best Platform for Your Business Website
In a digital world overflowing with website builders and SaaS platforms, WordPress continues to dominate—powering 43% of all websites globally as of 2024. But what makes this 20-year-old platform the go-to choice for businesses in 2025?
As a digital marketing agency specializing in WordPress design and development, we’ve built dozens of websites on this platform – including this one you are right now. Here’s why WordPress isn’t just surviving—it’s thriving, and how we use it to create websites that grow with your business—so you don’t have to lift a finger.

How We Make It Effortless for You:
- ⏱️ Quick Launch: We can have your site live in as little as 2 weeks, so you can start generating leads and sales faster.

- Customizable Themes: We design unique, brand-specific themes that make your site stand out—no cookie-cutter templates.
- Plugins for Everything: Need an online store? We set up WooCommerce with custom product pages and seamless payment gateways. Want a membership area? We build it.

3. Cost Efficiency: WordPress vs. Shopify (2025 Breakdown)
Let’s compare the costs of running an eCommerce site on WordPress versus Shopify:
| Expense | WordPress + WooCommerce | Shopify |

4. SEO Superpowers Built-In
WordPress is designed with SEO in mind, making it easier for your site to rank on Google—and we take it to the next level.
- Clean Code: WordPress’s structure is search-engine friendly out of the box.

Why WordPress Competitors Can’t Keep Up
- Shopify: Limited to eCommerce. Blogging and SEO tools are clunky add-ons.

- Wix: “Free” sites drown in ads. Removing them costs $300+/year.
