The Problem

WordPress Is Brilliant — Until It Isn't

WordPress powers 40% of the web for good reason. But an unmaintained WordPress site with 30 plugins, a bloated theme, and no security updates is a liability, not an asset.

🐌

Plugin Bloat

30+ plugins fighting for resources. Each one a potential security hole, a compatibility issue, and a performance drag.

🔓

Security Target

WordPress is the #1 target for hackers because of its popularity. Outdated plugins are the #1 entry point.

🎨

Theme Limitations

Off-the-shelf themes that look great in the demo but fall apart when you add real content. Customisation becomes a nightmare.

🔄

Update Anxiety

Afraid to update WordPress because the last time you did, half your site broke. That's not how technology should work.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends. If your site is well-built with under 10 plugins and custom code, WordPress can still be excellent. If you've got 30+ plugins, a bloated theme, and security concerns, migrating to Next.js is often faster and cheaper long-term.
