Got confused about costume website vs WordPress and have no idea which one to choose? Then here is why a custom website is way better than WordPress.

The requirement to Build a Website

I will be discussing various points, but let's have a look at which things we required to build a website,

  • HTML
  • CSS

I haven't included Javascript because you can build a website without JavaScript. You must be wondering if WordPress is better because it is easy to learn, with no need to code, but we will discuss this in another blog, and here is the reason why the costume website is way better than WordPress.

Advantages of creating a custom website,

Host Your Website for Free

There is serval platform which provides web hosting for free such as Vercel, CloudFare, and Firebase for a static website, which is not possible in WordPress, also while using this free tier, you can build authority and monetize it if you are using Cloud fare and Firebase, Vercel does not allow the user to use it for the commercial purpose, you will be able to add some backend functionality.

Able to Host multiple Websites in a VPS

It is one of the best traits that costume websites possess, and you will be able to host multiple HTM sites in a single VPS, and in terms of WordPress, I don't think you will be able to host more than one WordPress website in a 1 GB of ram single VPS, this thing can reduce the production cost.

Also, install an SSL(https) certificate for free without paying any extra charges.

Production Cost Low

You can run this website on a 2x-4x cheaper server compared to WordPress, and if you are using a modern framework such as Angular and NextJS, you will save a lot of bandwidth because it fetches the pages from the server, which requires. Also, you have more control over optimization on your website.

Better Performance

Since it can run on low specs, also it gives you better performance. In case you get so many visitors to your website, then you have the option to switch separate admin panel and database. Also, you can connect WordPress to NextJS to reduce client-side load.

Highly customizable

To customize your website, you don't have to entirely depend on pretty expensive plugins or other things because If you are a coder. Then you can create costume theme and plugins by yourself.

Doing a simple task in WordPress can require plugins, which will cost you too much money. I always prefer a custom website over WordPress, and I know you can save a lot of time by using WordPress, but everything comes from the price.

Enhance User Experience

You can enhance the user experience with modern frameworks such as Angular, NextJS and React(library), its features like switching pages Without page reloading, the fastest processing spee , reusable components, saving bandwidth via an inbuilt Link tag etc. Also, this framework can work on low spec.

To implement this framework such as NextJS, then you should have basic knowledge of these things,

  • HTML
  • CSS
  • JavaScript
  • NodeJS
  • React
