Poland's NIS2 act and WordPress providers
Poland's NIS2 implementation has applied since 3 April 2026. Its definition of a managed service provider covers remote administration, so it describes anyone who maintains someone else's WordPress. What the text says, and what it does not.
Half the plugin directory is abandoned
We measured the WordPress.org directory. 35,696 of 69,286 plugins have had no update in two years. About 2,100 of them still run on a thousand sites or more each.
Six hours of hold, five to exploit
WordPress.org holds every plugin release for up to six hours. Patchstack measures the median time to mass exploitation at five hours. The public record does not say whether a security patch is exempt.

How long does a headless WordPress migration take in 2026?
Six to sixteen weeks for typical engagements, with a four-phase shape: discovery, scoping, build and cutover, tuning. The variables are catalogue size, integration count, URL preservation, and editorial team readiness, not framework choice.
Shopify Plus vs WooCommerce headless in 2026: cost, control, AI
The Shopify Plus vs WooCommerce headless decision in 2026 is no longer a binary "platform vs custom" trade-off. Both can run headless, both integrate AI, both ship at the edge. The real axes are control, total cost over five years, and exit strategy. This article walks the matrix with confirmed platform facts.
Headless WordPress, ISR vs SSR: pick the rendering mode by content cadence
Incremental Static Regeneration and Server-Side Rendering are not interchangeable. ISR wins when content changes on a predictable cadence and traffic is high. SSR wins when the page is personalised or session-driven. The choice is per-route, not per-stack.

What does the collaboration process look like?
#We begin with a free consultation where we define your business goals, technical requirements, and delivery constraints. After that, you receive a clear scope, timeline, and cost breakdown so expectations are aligned from day one. Delivery is handled in short iterations with regular progress updates and decision checkpoints. This keeps the project transparent, reduces risk, and gives you practical control over priorities and budget.
How much does a WordPress website cost?
#Pricing depends on scope, design depth, integrations, and the level of custom development needed. Details are available on the pricing page, and the final estimate is always based on your specific requirements.
Do you offer post-launch support?
#Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance support after launch. It includes WordPress and plugin updates, monitored backups, security checks, and incident response when something breaks. We also handle small continuous improvements so your site evolves instead of freezing after go-live. This approach protects performance, improves stability, and lowers the cost of unexpected downtime.
How long does a project take?
#Project length depends on complexity, content readiness, and third-party integrations. A simple landing page is typically delivered in 1-2 weeks, a business site with performance optimisation usually takes 3-6 weeks, and e-commerce projects often need 6-12 weeks. We split the timeline into clear milestones so you always know what is being built and when reviews happen. If scope changes, we update the plan transparently so deadlines and costs remain predictable.
