We are asked this question all the time and it really is dependent on so many different factors. With just basic information we cannot accurately give you a timescale for your website as it will depend on the elements you need building. Websites which require eCommerce setups or signup and booking elements may take longer than those which only plan to incorporate a few simple pages of information. Every business’ needs are different, so we do not offer a standard turnaround time. Once we have all the details and information from you, we can provide completion dates for drafts and estimate the full project timescale.
We design and build websites in a wide range of software platforms. Examples of platforms we use are: WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, WooCommerce, Shopify, EKM, Opencart, Phython, Django etc. We can work with other platforms but you’ll need to contact us directly to discuss your needs.

We build a high percentage of our client websites on WordPress. There are alternatives out there, but we strongly believe WordPress is your best choice for a functional, customisable and responsive website. Duda is one of the closest competitors to WordPress but here we’re exploring why The Web Surgery always chooses WordPress.
All websites face unique challenges. They require intricate information structures that are tailored to each individual clients needs. It might be you need a customer private portals, appointment booking systems, video gallery, podcast series embedding or seamless integration with your database. WordPress excels here, boasting an unmatched arsenal of software plugins and themes. There are tens if not hundreds of thousands of themes, plug-ins and tools you can use with WordPress to create a unique and functional website. This vast library empowers us to sculpt a website for our clients that perfectly aligns with their specific needs. Duda’s limited plugin library struggles to achieve the same level of quality.
Duda’s more restrictive functionality would necessitate workarounds or difficult coding which would not be easy to edit and change as a website owner. This lack of flexibility can hinder growth, especially as your business expands.
Visibility is everything when it comes to your website. There is no point having a fantastically designed website if it cannot be found. When it comes to Search Engine Pptimisation (SEO), WordPress is your natural choice. Its open-source nature allows developers to create specific and effective SEO-focused plugins, optimising everything from page speed to content structure. This gives your website a significant advantage.
WordPress websites outperform their Duda counterparts in organic search. In the UK, WordPress boasts a market share of 65.3%, compared to Duda’s 0.5%. This translates to a staggering 1,814,015 websites using WordPress in the UK versus just 13,890 utilising Duda. These figures paint a clear picture: businesses on WordPress enjoy higher discoverability, attracting more visitors and boosting their online presence.
While Duda offers all-inclusive pricing with built-in hosting, WordPress requires separate hosting and domain registration, which can initially appear more expensive. However, this initial investment pays dividends. WordPress’s open-source nature means no vendor lock-in, allowing you to switch hosting providers or customise your website without limitations. Additionally, the vast plugin library often offers free or affordable options for essential features, making WordPress incredibly cost-effective in the long run.
The Web Surgery consistently uses WordPress to create unique and effective websites for our clients. Our range of packages allows our clients to pick the perfect level of service for their needs, which can include everything from a basic website build to a complete service incorporating online learning, video integration, SEO and digital marketing too.
