WP Agency

Technical WordPress agency for websites, WooCommerce shops and integrations. A dedicated team for new projects and ongoing development, based in the Netherlands.

WordPress

The most popular open-source CMS in the world that lets you build websites and online shops without programming.

WordPress is a free, open-source content management system (CMS) that lets you build and manage websites, blogs and online shops β€” without having to write code. With more than 43% of all websites worldwide, WordPress is the most widely used CMS in the world.

How does WordPress work?

WordPress runs on a web server and uses PHP and a MySQL database to store your content. Via the WordPress dashboard you manage pages, posts, media and settings from a user-friendly interface.

The power of WordPress lies in its extensibility: with plugins you add functionality and with themes you determine the appearance of your site. This means you can set up a simple blog just as easily as a comprehensive WooCommerce online shop.

WordPress.org vs WordPress.com

There are two versions of WordPress:

  • WordPress.org β€” The free software that you download and install on your own hosting. Full control, unlimited extensibility with plugins and themes.
  • WordPress.com β€” A hosted solution where WordPress is managed for you. Easier to get started with, but more limited in capabilities.

For professional WordPress websites we always recommend WordPress.org with your own hosting.

Why use WordPress?

  • User-friendly: no technical knowledge needed for day-to-day management.
  • Flexible: from blog to online shop, from portfolio to community.
  • SEO-friendly: a strong foundation for search engine optimisation with plugins such as Yoast or Rank Math.
  • Large community: thousands of free plugins and themes available.
  • Open source: no licence fees, full ownership of your data.
