Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to build a custom WordPress website?

A custom WordPress website typically takes 4 to 8 weeks from design kickoff to launch, depending on scope. Headless WordPress builds with Next.js take 10 to 16 weeks. We agree on the timeline before we start — no moving goalposts.

Do you build WordPress sites from templates or from scratch?

From scratch. Every site The Bitecode builds is custom-designed and custom-coded. We don’t use pre-built themes or Elementor templates for custom projects. This means your site loads faster, looks unique, and is fully yours to maintain.

Can you migrate my existing Wix, Squarespace, or Shopify site to WordPress?

Yes. We handle content migration, URL redirects, SEO preservation, and design replication or redesign. We’ve migrated sites from Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, and Shopify to WordPress with zero downtime.

Will I be able to edit the website myself after launch?

Absolutely. We build every WordPress site so that non-technical users can update content, add blog posts, manage products, and make basic edits without touching code. We also provide a short handover walkthrough after launch.

Do you offer WordPress hosting?

We don’t provide hosting directly, but we set up and configure your hosting on premium platforms like WPEngine, Kinsta, or AWS — whichever suits your budget and traffic requirements. We manage the technical setup so you don’t have to.

What is headless WordPress and why would a startup need it?

Headless WordPress separates the content management system (WordPress backend) from the frontend display layer, which is built with a modern framework like Next.js. This results in significantly faster page loads, better SEO scores, and a more flexible developer experience. It’s ideal for startups expecting high traffic or needing a highly customised frontend.

Do you work with startups in the United States and Australia?

Yes. The majority of our WordPress clients are based in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada. Our team in Ahmedabad, India works across time zones, and our Melbourne, Australia presence means we can support AU and NZ clients during business hours.
