WordPress or Web Developer
The difference is Important
Complex Website
A WordPress Developer primarily relies on plugins and themes to enhance functionality. However, for more intricate requirements, this approach may result in website bloat, diminished performance, and compromised usability. In some instances, it also increases security risk.
We have successfully helped numerous businesses that initially engaged WordPress Developers when a Web Developer was required. If you’re facing similar challenges, please don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance.
Differences
A WordPress developer and a Web developer (or Engineer) both work with web technologies, but they specialize in different areas and focus on different aspects of website development.
WordPress Developer:
A WordPress developer specializes in working with the WordPress content management system (CMS). Their primary focus is creating, customizing, and maintaining websites built on the WordPress platform.
This includes tasks such as:
- Customizing WordPress themes
- Choosing and installing plugins for featured needed
- Ensuring website performance and security within the WordPress ecosystem
- Implementing SEO best practices for WordPress websites
- Providing high-level support and troubleshooting for WordPress websites
WordPress is built using PHP; even so, a WordPress developer may have some or no PHP knowledge. Their expertise is mainly concentrated on the WordPress CMS and its specific functionalities.
Web Developer (or Engineer):
A Web developer is a developer who specializes in web application programming. In the case of WordPress, the PHP programming language is used. PHP is a server-side scripting language commonly used for web development. A PHP developer’s responsibilities are broader and can include tasks such as:
- Developing server-side logic for web applications using PHP
- Integrating front-end components (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) with server-side code
- Implementing and working with databases, such as MySQL or PostgreSQL
- Building custom web applications from scratch or using PHP frameworks like Laravel, Symfony, or CodeIgniter
- Ensuring website performance, security, and scalability
- Debugging and optimizing PHP code
While a PHP developer may have experience working with WordPress, their expertise is not limited to it. They can work with various web technologies, platforms, and frameworks that use PHP.
In summary, a WordPress developer focuses on the WordPress CMS, whereas a Web developer (or Engineer) specializes in the broader scope of web development using the PHP programming language. Depending on the project requirements, you may need one or the other, or even both, to achieve your desired outcome.
