WebGenPro vs WordPress
WordPress powers a large share of the web and is nearly unlimited in flexibility — at the cost of requiring your own hosting, themes, plugins and regular security updates. For a small business without a technical team, that upkeep is permanent work. With WebGenPro there is nothing to maintain: we deliver the site ready and handle everything, from hosting to changes.
Side by side
| WebGenPro | WordPress | |
|---|---|---|
| Who builds the website | We do. You receive a complete, ready website tailored to your business within 48 hours. | You do. It is a do-it-yourself editor: you pick a template and build the site yourself. |
| Time to go live | 48 hours, with no work on your side beyond a short form. | Depends on the time you can invest — typically days to weeks of editing. |
| Domain, hosting and SSL | Included in every plan, with no setup fees. | Hosting included on paid plans; a domain is usually an extra cost/step after the first year. |
| Changes to the site | Ask us for changes and we make them — it is part of the service. | You make the changes yourself in the editor. |
| Design | Designed from scratch for your business, using your real photos and information. | Based on generic templates shared by thousands of sites. |
| Enquiries and bookings | Contact/booking form included, with notifications to your email. | Available, but you set up the forms and notifications yourself. |
| Technical maintenance | None on your side — the platform is managed by us. | Core, theme and plugin updates are your responsibility (or your contractor's). |

Frequently asked questions
Isn't WordPress free?
The software itself is free, but a serious WordPress site pays for hosting, a domain, usually a premium theme or plugins — and above all the hours (yours or a professional's) to build it and keep it updated and secure.
When is WordPress the better choice?
When you need very specific functionality (a complex store, membership areas, custom integrations) and someone to handle the technical side. For a local business presentation site, that complexity rarely pays off.
Can I migrate from WordPress to WebGenPro?
Yes. We recreate the site with your content and point your current domain to WebGenPro — the address stays, the maintenance disappears.
