Why Custom Development

WordPress is the most widely used CMS – and that's exactly the problem. Most websites are interchangeable. We take a different path. Every theme from scratch, every plugin precisely for your business process.

Whether you are an SME from Zurich, an industrial company with complex B2B processes, or a financial institution with the highest security demands: We deliver tailor-made WordPress systems that solve real business problems and generate measurable ROI.

WordPress explained simply — what you get from us

Your own website today is as important as a well-visible shop window in a prime location. WordPress is the foundation on which most websites worldwide run — because it is flexible and grows with your company. We don't use it for off-the-shelf solutions, but build a site that fits you, your customers and your everyday work exactly.

Instead of using ready-made templates with unnecessary ballast, we program only what you really need. This keeps your website fast, secure and easy to maintain. You can adjust texts and images yourself at any time — without technical knowledge and without waiting long for us.

Want to sell online? Then we set up an online shop for you that fits your products — with Swiss payment methods and a clear overview of your orders.

As an agency from Switzerland we are there for you after launch too: regular updates, ongoing security and a fixed contact person who knows your project. So your website stays reliable for years — and you keep your head free for your business.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About WordPress Development

Answers to the most important questions about custom WordPress development, plugin programming, and maintenance.

Start Your Tailor-Made WordPress Solution Now

Contact us for a free initial consultation – we analyze your requirements and deliver a concrete solution outline.

SME projects with a custom theme and standard features start at approximately CHF 10,000. More complex solutions with custom plugins, integrations, and e-commerce features range from CHF 20,000 to CHF 80,000+. Enterprise projects with ERP integration are individually quoted.
Standard plugins create unnecessary code bloat that increases loading times and poses security risks. A tailor-made plugin contains only the code your business process actually needs – faster loading times, smaller attack surface, better Core Web Vitals.
The average development time for a complex plugin is 3 to 6 weeks. Simple feature extensions can be implemented in 1 to 2 weeks.
Yes. We develop tailor-made integrations with SAP S/4HANA, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Abacus, Bexio, and other systems – real-time data synchronization via REST API, SOAP, or XML/SFTP.
Yes – provided it is professionally configured and maintained. Our security architecture includes minimal plugin usage, WAF, daily malware scans, 2FA, and hosting in Swiss data centers. WordPress is used by Bloomberg, Microsoft, and Disney.
Our maintenance packages start at CHF 299/month (Basic), CHF 599/month (Professional with priority support), up to CHF 999/month (Enterprise with SLA and dedicated account manager).
Absolutely. We take over existing WordPress installations, conduct a comprehensive audit, and optimize systematically. In the process, we replace unnecessary standard plugins with custom solutions.
WordPress is the optimal choice in many cases: 61% market share means the largest ecosystem and highest flexibility. For enterprise scenarios, however, we also recommend TYPO3, and for performance-critical projects, Statamic. We advise honestly and platform-neutral.
A professional WordPress agency in Switzerland works code-first instead of builder-driven, adheres to the WordPress Coding Standards, hosts in Switzerland in accordance with the FADP, documents thoroughly, and hands over source code plus build pipeline. Sidora has been working this way for 20+ years — with a dedicated PHP and JS team in Winterthur, no offshoring.
A professional WordPress website built by a Swiss agency typically costs between CHF 8,000 and CHF 25,000 for SME projects (custom theme, 10–25 pages, multilingual, SEO basics). More demanding WooCommerce shops and WordPress Multisite platforms range from CHF 25,000 to CHF 80,000+. We deliberately do not offer templates or page builders — every website is built from the ground up for your specific requirements.
A tailor-made WordPress website at Sidora is typically delivered in 6 to 12 weeks — from briefing through design, custom theme development, plugin programming, to launch. More complex projects with WooCommerce, ERP integration, or Multisite take 3 to 6 months. You receive a fixed timeline with clear milestones from the start.
For sustainable success, we recommend a custom theme. Page builders such as Elementor or Divi load hundreds of lines of JavaScript and CSS on every page, which hurts Core Web Vitals and SEO — and you remain locked into the vendor. A tailor-made Sidora theme uses only the code you actually need, runs 3–5× faster, and belongs to you entirely. For existing customers on builder setups, we migrate step by step.
