Our Philosophy
If we agree on the following points, there's not much that can go wrong. Let's start a project together.
- 01 No Boxed Solutions We stand for high-quality websites and powerful web applications. Obviously, one does not need to reinvent the wheel every time. We also naturally build on established frameworks and web standards, but above all, we always handle our client's budgets responsibly. Experience has often shown us that the cost-effective solution is not always the most sustainable one. We proactively and comprehensively advise you to develop the best approach among various solutions. However, do not expect us to have a ready-made solution for every requirement and quickly cobble together something with standardized kits.
- 02 No Unchecked Plugin Growth We have taken over many systems from other agencies where a plugin was used for every minor feature. Although plugins can often provide great functions, they should be chosen and implemented thoughtfully. An unchecked growth of plugins can slow down load times, cause conflicts, and compromise security. Also bear in mind that every plugin could potentially introduce a new security vulnerability into your system. We, as an experienced WordPress agency, advocate for only using plugins when it appears absolutely necessary. Even for large websites of internationally operating companies, we only use a few, carefully maintained and widely used plugins, such as Advanced Custom Fields Pro or Yoast SEO.
- 03 No Premade Themes Free or cheap premade themes are certainly a reason why the CMS is so successful. Depending on the requirement and budget, a purchased theme can also be just the right thing. However, with our self-understanding of realizing high-quality, goal-oriented, and therefore also lean, performant solutions for our customers, premade themes carelessly adapted to corporate design guidelines are not practical. Experience shows that purchased themes can create avoidable dependencies and security gaps, bring unnecessary baggage that negatively impacts performance, and are often only expandable with difficulty.
The Strengths of WordPress
As one of the world's leading platforms, WordPress offers numerous advantages that make it the ideal choice for small and large projects alike. Whether for simple websites, blogs, or complex online shops, with WordPress you are well equipped.
User-Friendliness with Professional Administration
WordPress offers an intuitive user interface that allows teams to manage content efficiently, even without technical knowledge. With our tailor-made admin panel extensions, we make sure that even large amounts of content can be handled clearly and securely.
Open Source with Enterprise-Level Security
Although WordPress is free as open-source software, we rely on enterprise solutions that guarantee the highest security standards through tailor-made security mechanisms such as firewalls, two-factor authentication, and regular penetration tests.
Gutenberg Block Editor: Flexible and Secure
The Gutenberg editor enables flexible, user-friendly content creation, which we secure with strict access controls and permissions. This way, your teams can work efficiently without compromising security.
Extendable Functionality with Vetted Plugins
The large selection of plugins offers almost unlimited possibilities for extension. However, we only implement vetted and regularly updated plugins to guarantee maximum security and stability.
WP-CLI for Automated Security Processes
WP-CLI is not just a tool for developers but also a solution for efficiently managing security updates and backups. Our experts use WP-CLI to ensure smooth operational processes.
Integrated SEO Optimization with Performance Monitoring
In addition to the powerful SEO features, we continuously monitor your website's performance. This way, we make sure that not only your visibility is maximized but that your security and performance goals are reached as well.
Scalability for Businesses of Any Size
WordPress is suitable for websites, blogs, and e-commerce platforms, regardless of company size. We adapt the architecture of your WordPress installation to your specific business requirements while ensuring the highest availability and security.

With the multisite functionality of WordPress, you can manage multiple websites centrally, ideal for large companies and organizations. We ensure secure and efficient administration that adapts flexibly to your requirements.
WordPress FAQs
Who is WordPress particularly suitable for?
WordPress is particularly well-suited for extensive and frequently updated websites. Regardless of whether it's a start-up, small or medium-sized business, large corporation, organization, club, or self-employed professional: WordPress is quite flexible and tends to be a good choice for most requirements.
For shops and e-commerce websites, WordPress can also be utilized in combination with WooCommerce. However, we don't consider WordPress to be the most appropriate shop system and find Shopify to be a better alternative. Honestly speaking, it should be noted that there are many agencies that employ WooCommerce for shop systems.
The ease of setup and management, along with a large selection of themes and plugins, make WordPress a desirable platform, even for the untrained. However, lacking experience in handling WordPress can quickly make results appear unprofessional, significantly impairing the user experience. This leads to bounces and limits opportunities for growth and potential revenue. When it concerns a commercial offer or a wide and significant target group, investing in a professional WordPress agency is worthwhile.
How much does a WordPress website cost?
The cost of a website can vary greatly, depending on the scope, functionalities, and individual requirements. As an experienced WordPress agency, we understand that each client has unique needs. We offer tailored solutions to ensure that your website meets your requirements and goals.
In determining costs, we take into account factors such as design, development, integration of features and plugins, custom adaptations, responsive design, content, search engine optimization, and security measures. Our goal is to deliver you a high-quality website that optimally represents your business and supports your online success.
To determine the exact price for your website, we first invite you to a free initial consultation. Here we can discuss your requirements and evaluate whether both parties can envision a collaboration.
Perhaps you were hoping for more concrete information. We understand that, but premature promises and hasty calculations lead to avoidable friction and results with significant compromises. We don't want that. We want to achieve the best possible result for you and create a website that makes you more successful in a sustainable way.
What are the disadvantages or weaknesses of WordPress?
Although WordPress is an extremely popular and widely used content management system, it has some weaknesses. Here are some of the most known weak points:
Security Risks
As WordPress is so widely used, it also becomes an attractive target for potential attackers. Vulnerabilities in plugins, themes, or the core software can lead to security gaps if they are not regularly updated.
Performance
With an inadequate configuration or the use of too many plugins, WordPress can be slow and resource-intensive. Poor performance can impact the site's loading times and user experience.
Dependency on Plugins and Third Parties
The use of third-party themes and plugins is common in WordPress. This can lead to dependency on the developers of these extensions to ensure they are supplied with updates and support.
A common example from practice is the lack of native support for multilingualism. One is reliant on one of the plugins to manage multilingual content with WordPress.
Additional examples include the often cluttered file management, which among other things does not offer folder management by default. Equally, the decreasing clarity is criticized in websites with many pages, posts, and other content types.
In general, we advocate avoiding plugins as far as possible, if a custom, yet precise and high-performance solution can be programmed with justifiable effort.
Scalability
Although WordPress is sufficient for many websites, it may lack scalability and flexibility for highly complex or extensive websites. For very large websites or specific requirements, we usually recommend other, more powerful alternatives such as Laravel.
It's important to note that many of these weaknesses can be mitigated with careful configuration, regular updates, and responsible usage of plugins. As a WordPress agency, we are experts and can help you overcome the evident shortcomings of WordPress.
What technical foundation does the system rely on?
The CMS is based on the programming language PHP and uses a MySQL database for storing content and configurations. It runs on a web server that supports PHP and MySQL. Therefore, to use it, you need a web hosting environment that supports these technologies.
The technical requirements are:
- Web server: Apache or Nginx are recommended, which allow the execution of PHP.
- PHP version: With regard to system security and performance, we always recommend using the latest PHP version. Older versions do not offer optimal security standards.
- Database: It requires a MySQL database version 5.7 or higher.
- Storage space: To install WordPress and upload media, you need sufficient storage space on your web server.
In addition to the technical requirements, there are also some recommended best practices for a smooth usage of WordPress:
- Regular updates: It is essential for the security of your website to keep both WordPress itself and themes and plugins up to date, to close security gaps and use new features. We offer extensive maintenance and support contracts for WordPress, which will relieve you of any concerns about vulnerabilities.
- Secure passwords: Use strong, unique passwords for your admin area and all user accounts.
- Security plugins: Use security plugins to protect your website from attacks and malware.
- Backup solution: Implement regular backups of your website to be able to restore it in case of data loss or damage.
- Plugins: Only use trusted and well-rated, widely used and regularly updated plugins from reputable sources.
- Scalability: Plan your website right from the start with growth and scalability in mind, so you can cope with future requirements. Keep in mind that the wrong technological basis can prove to be a growth brake in a short time. Rely on our expertise and high-quality technology consulting.

How was WordPress created?
WordPress originally started as an open-source blogging system, designed for quick publication and updating of content in chronological order. With a simple and user-friendly interface, the system is mainly designed for quick publishing of news, opinions, or other posts. Like other CM systems, it strictly separates content from layout. This enables you to focus fully on adding and updating new text (paragraphs, bullet points, tables, etc.) and images on the individual pages, similar to word processing (e.g. Word). The text can be added and altered using a so-called WYSIWYG editor.
In addition to the typical features of weblog systems (such as comment, tagging, and categorization functions), WordPress also offers all the common features of a modern content management system and can thus be used for all types of websites.
