Angie Holt President at Rathburn Precision Machining
4.8★
B2B Review from Angie Holt
Thinkhaus has been a trusted partner to us for many years, helping us (re)build the entire sales & marketing strategy of our well-established business, to support a significant business redirection. As a small business, they have supported a cost-conscious strategy that has allowed us to prioritize the most impactful strategies on a budget over time. Thinkhaus has helped implement many different elements over time - brand strategy, new name & logo, new imagery, a new website, SEO, AI search visibility and various marketing support materials for special projects such as trade shows and promotional events. Together, these elements have helped us to stand out from our competitors to secure many new customers over the years.
Jason Phillips Director of Industrial Design at Stress Engineering Services
4.8★
Branding Review from Jason Phillips
The Thinkhaus team, led by Kelly Smith, delivers access to high-level brand strategy, design, and messaging for projects of almost any scale, while avoiding some of the overhead drawbacks of some agency competition. I have used Thinkhaus's services several times over a six-year period for naming, brand positioning, and service messaging. Thinkhaus gave the time and attention needed to understand the nuance of our communication needs. Even when things took some iteration, the team remained focused and dedicated. Thinkhaus is the kind of team you hire when a strong outside perspective is needed, with leadership that will listen, diagnose, and provide a strategic approach backed by significant experience.

If I could leave 10 stars, I would! Working with 247Labs on our website was one of the best decisions we made. From day one, their communication was clear, consistent, and easy to follow. We always knew what was happening, what was next, and where input was needed.Their team was responsive, open to feedback, and quick to turn ideas into improvements. They didn’t just execute, they brought smart suggestions that made the final product far better than what we initially envisioned.On the technical and design side, they’re INCREDIBLE. Our site is fast, clean, modern, and built with real attention to detail. Every element was expertly crafted and feels unique to us.What stood out most was how supportive they were throughout the entire process. They were patient, proactive, and genuinely invested in getting the best result for us.Absolutely use 247Labs if you need a website. They deliver, and then they go beyond that!

Frequently Asked Questions About WordPress Development Companies
What services do WordPress developers provide?
A WordPress agency provides customization and website development services for the world's most popular open-source content management system (CMS) WordPress. Key services of these specialists include bespoke WordPress theme, features, and WordPress plugin development, website setup, platform migration, UI/UX implementations, performance optimization, and security implementations. Â
They also conduct technical tuning pertaining to database management, API integration, site migration, and maintenance.Â
How much do these specialists charge for their services?
Depending on the complexity, WordPress agencies charge from $500 to $30,000 per project. Namely, simple WordPress sites range from $500 to $5,000, while fully custom-built sites with advanced features may cost between $5,000 and $30,000. Â
The prices are overall determined based on the design, functionality, SEO, and developer expertise. Each phase also entails different prices:Â
Planning and discovery: $1,000 to $5,000Â
Design: $3,000 to $10,000Â
Development: $5,000 to $20,000Â
Testing and launch: $2,000 to $5,000Â
How long does it take for a WordPress development company to create a custom website?
On average, a custom WordPress website requires 6 to 12 weeks for complete development. Conversely, simple blogs with out-of-box WordPress theme, basic customization, only essential plugins, and basic content setup can be done in a week. Â
In the same low complexity tier also fall basic business websites, minimalistic blogs, and simple portfolio sites built with themes and minimal customization, which can be done in 1 to 3 weeks.Â
Brochure websites with 5-10 pages, contact forms, and basic SEO setup usually take a week or two. WordPress developers also often work on business sites with standard features like contact forms, galleries, standard features, and basic eCommerce functionality, which typically fall within the 2 to 3-week range.Â
What is included in website maintenance?
Maintenance packages usually cover WordPress core updates, plugin updates, security backups, and sometimes content updates or technical support hours. Full-service plans extend to uptime monitoring and malware scanning to protect the site against downtime and external threats. Â
Some WordPress developers also offer performance optimization and database cleanup to maintain optimal loading speeds and a pleasant user experience.Â
What are the most effective website security measures that WordPress developers take?
When putting up a security setup for a new client, WordPress agencies primarily start with strengthening the core and securing the server. To further secure the parameters, they limit access and monitor the site to mitigate common risks like brute force attacks, SQL injections, and malware attacks. Â
Update management: Regularly patching WordPress core, functionalities, themes, and plugins to the latest versionsÂ
Secure hosting: Using managed WordPress hosting with server-level security, such as isolated server environments (jailing) and proactive DDoS protection.Â
SSL/HTTPS everywhere: Forcing HTTPS to encrypt data in transit.Â
Off-site, automated backups: Implementing daily, automated backups that are stored in an independent location for prompt recovery if the server is compromised.Â
Removing unused assets: Deleting, rather than just deactivating, unused plugins and themes to reduce the attack surface.Â
