A logo does one job: it makes your business recognisable before anyone reads a word. Whether it appears on a clinic door in DHA, a takeaway box in Johar Town, or a shop sign on Main Boulevard, a properly made logo tells people you're worth trusting.
From housing societies and hospitals to restaurants, law firms, and eCommerce brands across Pakistan.
Plain prices, real timelines, and a site you can manage yourself — no coding required.
WordPress runs more websites than any other platform in the world. According to W3Techs, it powers over 43% of all websites globally as of mid-2026. It is the most widely used content management system (CMS) in Pakistan too — and for good reason. It's flexible enough to handle a simple five-page business site and capable enough to run a full ecommerce store or a news portal with hundreds of posts.
This page explains what a WordPress developer actually does, what goes into a proper build, how much it costs in Pakistan right now, and how you'll be able to manage your own site after handover with no technical background needed.
A WordPress developer builds, customises, and maintains websites on the WordPress platform. The job covers far more than picking a theme and filling in some text.
Some developers cover copywriting, image sourcing, and on-page SEO setup. On projects I take on, all of that is part of the work, so you're not coordinating between three separate people.
A lot of "WordPress websites" sold cheaply online are a pre-made template with your logo dropped in. That's not a build. Here's what a real project covers.
We talk through your goals, audience, and pages needed. A bakery in Johar Town needing online orders gets a different structure than a DHA property dealer.
Colours, fonts, page layouts, and mobile-first appearance. Most visitors in Pakistan browse on mobile, so every site is built phone-first.
WordPress setup, theme configuration or custom design with Elementor, plugin installation, form setup, and any custom functionality.
Your supplied text and images go on the site correctly formatted. Content writing available as an add-on.
Caching plugin, image compression, and Core Web Vitals checks before launch. Every site is tested for speed.
Security plugin, login protection, SSL certificate activation, and automated backup configuration.
A short video walkthrough specific to your site showing you how to update content. Day-to-day updates won't need a developer.
Prices reflect market rates as of June 2026. Final quote confirmed in a written proposal.
| Type of Site | What It Covers | Typical Price Range (PKR) |
|---|---|---|
| Basic business site (3–5 pages) | Home, About, Services, Contact, blog setup | Rs 35,000 – Rs 65,000 |
| Medium business site (6–10 pages) | Above plus portfolio, team page, or FAQs | Rs 65,000 – Rs 120,000 |
| WooCommerce store (up to 50 products) | Full ecommerce with payment gateway | Rs 100,000 – Rs 200,000 |
| Custom WordPress build | Unique design, advanced functionality | Rs 180,000 and above |
These prices include design, development, content entry (when you supply the content), and basic on-page SEO setup. They do not include ongoing hosting fees — typically Rs 2,000 to Rs 8,000 per year for shared hosting or Rs 15,000 to Rs 40,000 per year for managed WordPress hosting — domain registration, or premium plugin licences where required.
What pushes the price up: custom design work vs a paid theme, more pages and complexity, ecommerce features (especially custom checkout or shipping integrations), third‑party integrations (appointment booking, CRMs, WhatsApp Business API), content writing, and image sourcing.
Payment terms: 50% advance before work starts, 50% on delivery. For larger projects, milestones tied to specific deliverables.
Speed is not a nice-to-have extra. Google uses page experience signals to decide where your site ranks. The three Core Web Vitals Google measures are LCP (Largest Contentful Paint, target under 2.5 seconds), INP (Interaction to Next Paint, how quickly the page responds), and CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift, whether elements jump around). Google's full explanation is at web.dev/vitals.
A slow site loses visitors before they read a word. On mobile connections in Pakistan, where many users are on congested 4G networks, load time matters even more. Most users abandon a page that takes longer than three seconds.
Speed optimisation includes:
Every site I launch gets a PageSpeed Insights check before and after, with a target score above 85 on mobile. If your existing WordPress site is running slowly, a standalone speed optimisation service starts from Rs 12,000 (June 2026).
WordPress is a common target for automated attacks — bots scan millions of sites looking for weak admin passwords, outdated plugins, or old PHP versions. Basic security is straightforward:
Every WordPress site I build ships with all of these in place. Ongoing security monitoring is part of a monthly maintenance plan if you want someone checking things after launch.
Yes. Once your site is built with Elementor, you can update text, swap images, publish blog posts, add products to a WooCommerce store, and create new pages with no code at all. The editing interface works like a drag‑and‑drop tool.
Most clients come to me after paying someone to build a site they can't edit themselves — the builder locked the backend to keep them dependent. Every site I hand over includes a custom video walkthrough (not a generic tutorial), full WordPress admin access, hosting and domain login details, and source files where applicable. You own everything. No lock‑in, no monthly fee to make a text change.
| WordPress | Shopify | Wix | Webflow | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Business sites, blogs, WooCommerce stores | Pure ecommerce focus | Simple personal or small business | Design‑heavy, animation‑rich sites |
| Ownership model | You own it; pay for hosting only | Monthly subscription from ~$29/mo | Monthly subscription | Monthly subscription |
| Pakistani payment gateways | JazzCash, Easypaisa, PayFast, Safepay via WooCommerce | Limited local options | Very limited | Limited |
| Self‑editing without a developer | Yes, straightforward with Elementor | Yes, very easy | Yes, very easy | Steeper learning curve |
| Long‑term cost | Lower | Higher due to recurring fees | Medium | Higher |
For most Pakistani businesses that want to own their site outright and keep ongoing costs low, WordPress is the right platform. If you're running a high‑volume ecommerce operation and prefer not to manage hosting or updates at all, Shopify's monthly subscription may be worth it.
We talk through goals, audience, and pages. You share logo, brand colours, and any sites you like the look of.
Written scope of work with fixed price and timeline. 50% advance paid before work starts.
The homepage design goes to you for review before any development begins. Changes are made here.
Development, content entry, plugin setup, speed configuration, and security hardening.
Two rounds of revisions included. Most changes are minor at this stage.
Site goes live. You receive all logins, a video walkthrough, and written documentation.
Timeline depends on how quickly you supply content and give feedback. A five‑page site with content ready on time can launch in two weeks. A ten‑page site with client‑side delays can take five.
A WordPress developer builds and maintains websites on the WordPress content management system. The work covers installing and configuring WordPress, building page layouts using tools like Elementor, connecting plugins for forms, SEO, security, and ecommerce, optimising page speed, and handing the site over so the client can manage it themselves. Many developers, including me, cover design, content entry, and basic SEO setup as part of the same project.
As of June 2026, a basic five-page WordPress site costs between Rs 35,000 and Rs 65,000. A medium business site with 6 to 10 pages runs Rs 65,000 to Rs 120,000. A WooCommerce ecommerce store starts from Rs 100,000. Custom builds with unique design and advanced functionality start from Rs 180,000. The final price depends on the number of pages, complexity of features, and whether you need content writing. Hosting and domain registration are separate ongoing costs.
Yes. WordPress with a page builder like Elementor lets you edit text, change images, add blog posts, and create new pages through a visual interface with no coding. At handover, you receive a video walkthrough specific to your site showing the most common tasks step by step. You get full admin access to everything. Nothing is locked or held back.
WordPress speed optimisation improves how fast your site loads and responds for visitors. It matters for two reasons. First, Google uses Core Web Vitals — LCP, INP, and CLS — as ranking signals, so a slow site ranks lower in search results. Second, most mobile users leave a page that takes more than three seconds to load. Speed optimisation work includes configuring a caching plugin, compressing images to WebP format, removing unnecessary plugins, and setting up a CDN. A standalone speed audit and optimisation service starts from Rs 12,000 (June 2026).
