Software Development Review from Michael S.
We selected Azumo to develop our software. We transitioned from another development company, so Azumo was initially responsible for migrating our existing code and environments. We are currently still working with Azumo as our nearshore software development team on adding new items to our software.

Azumo helped us migrate our existing UIs into a new framework, creating reusable components and the infrastructure needed for future development. The developer they assigned became a seamless part of our team, always punctual, responsive, and a great fit overall.

3D Animation Review from Andrew Bielous
We recently worked with DreamInk Studio on a series of 3D visualizations for our electronic manufacturing services, as well as some 3D animations for our ad campaign, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Their work was outstanding, combining technical accuracy with creativity that really brought our projects to life.The visualizations not only looked fantastic but also helped us effectively communicate our services to clients. The animations for our ad campaign, in particular, were impressive catching the eye of our target audience and delivering our message with impact.For the quality of the work provided, we found the cost to be more than reasonable. The team was professional, easy to work with, and delivered everything on time. We highly recommend DreamInk Studio for anyone in need of high-quality 3D work that delivers great value.
Games Review from Shaun Edwards
I began working with Vlad in 2022 when we needed 3D characters made for our web3 gaming project. Vlad meticulously developed all the technical aspects of the task, ensuring the character's integration into our future game. He not only developed a series of characters unique to my concept but also effectively managed the distribution of tasks among team members, including creating new textures and skins.The game development process started with the discussion of level design, after which Vlad and his team created the first demo version of our game. Vlad demonstrated exceptional organizational skills, hiring additional specialists such as programmers and consultants to further enhance the project.The initiative to create a second version of the game came from me, and Vlad actively supported this proposal. He attentively considered my wishes, coordinated the team's efforts, and prepared additional technical tasks for new challenges. Vlad also successfully adapted the characters for use in Unreal Engine and coordinated the development of game mechanics and NPC physics, including the creation of new game levels.Currently, Vlad is actively involved in refining the game, upgrading our characters. His professionalism, teamwork skills, and results-oriented approach make him an exceptional project manager and we will continue to work with him as long as we can! Vlad is a huge asset to any business in this industry and if he does not know how to do something, he will learn it, or bring one of his many contacts into the project! We are yet to find a problem that Vlad could not fix!

Makaila Malungahu's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Chris and Mystic Media has been great for our huge app development project and excited to continue working with them. Don't hesitate to reach out to them!
Bryan Pratt's Review Sourced from Google
Mystic Media has been excellent to work with, offered great value, and their expertise and project management has been evident throughout the development process. We hired Mystic to take an idea and concept drawings through UI/UX and graphic design, programming and development, all the way to the market. They have met or exceeded all milestones, even with significant additions to scope along the way. We're currently in beta testing before release, and we are very satisfied with the entire experience. Mystic has earned my unqualified endorsement for anyone looking to develop their first app with them, as we have done.

After a few friendly email exchanges about what could make an app work better for me and no doubt others this group took on changes and for me astonishingly added the recommendation immediately.I’m impressed.
Chanel Gallen's Review Sourced from Google
We made the decision to move our development back home, after years of working with offshore developers. The Mobi team made the transition seamless, coming up to speed on a complex auction system quickly so there was limited down time in development. Mobi doesn't feel like an agency partner, but part of the FarmGate team. They aren't afraid to speak up if they feel we're heading off course, advise us on the right technology partners and have worked through the night alongside us if s%#t ever hits the fan. We know they have our back!

Everything you need to know before you hire dedicated WordPress developer
What can a custom WordPress development company do for my business?
Entering a partnership with a WordPress agency can help you elevate your digital presence and make the website a lucrative business asset.
By engineering bespoke themes and custom-coded plugins, a WordPress expert can make sure your website possesses the functionality required to outperform the competition.
WordPress developers have access to enterprise-grade security protocols which can effectively shield your site from vulnerabilities.
Beyond mere aesthetics, they also implement advanced SEO architectures and schema markups that can improve your visibility across search engine results pages.
Your operations will also become more streamlined as your WordPress website gets connected with practical business tools, such as CRM systems and automated marketing tools via APIs.
As part of the service, WordPress development companies provide around-the-clock monitoring, thus liberating your internal team to allocate more time on core commercial activities.
Do I need to buy hosting separately?
Yes, hosting comes as a separate offering. You can either get hosting via your dedicated WordPress developer or through an external provider. There are pros and cons to both options:
- Agency-managed hosting
Many high-end agencies include hosting as part of a care plan or maintenance retainer. The main advantage of this option is that if the site goes down, the agency handles the problem. The caveat is that you may pay a premium for the service, and should you choose to leave the agency, migrating the site will require a transition of ownership. - Direct-to-provider option
Purchasing your own hosting will give you absolute ownership of your digital assets. If you decide to go with this option, it’s recommended to go for a managed WordPress hosting, rather than shared. When looking into providers, look for companies that offer server-level caching, daily automated backups, a staging environment for testing updates, and a free SSL certificate.
How do I choose the best WordPress developer for my project?
To choose the best WordPress agency for your site, follow some of these steps:
- Clarify your needs
Have a clear understanding of whether you need a completely new website, a redesign, or specific functionalities enriched into the site. - Review past work for relevant experience
Check WordPress developers’ portfolio and review their previous projects for diversity, style, capabilities, and any relevant experience in your industry. - Check online reviews
Read reviews and testimonials on third-party sites like Google and DesignRush to get informed about the agency's deadline adherence, professionalism, work ethic, and development quality. - Ask about their communication
During the interview, ask WordPress agencies about their preferred communication channels and frequency of updates to learn how often will you receive status updates. - Discuss post-launch expectations
Ask if the agency offers post-launch support, be it for maintenance, technical issues, content updates, or security patches. - Ask about the pricing structure
Evaluate their pricing, understand what is included in the price, and inquire about potential add-on costs.
How can I find the best specialist on DesignRush that fits my budget?
We compiled a list of WordPress development companies across different price points to help you find a vendor that’s within your spending expectations:
| High price: $50,000 |
|
| Low price: $25,000 to $50,000 |
|
What questions should I ask WordPress developers before hiring one?
Before you hire WordPress developer, consider asking some of the following questions:
Relevant Background
- How long have you been working with WordPress?
- What kinds of projects and industries do you specialize in?
- Do you have recent projects or case studies that are relevant to my industry or needs?
Services and Processes
- How experienced are you with custom theme or plugin development?
- How do you approach hosting and setting up a WordPress site?
- Do you follow the coding standards for WordPress?
- What post-launch support and maintenance packages do you offer?
- How do you handle updates, security patches, and potential website issues?
Related to Your Project
- Will I have the full rights to my site?
- Will my website be optimized for SEO?
- Will my WordPress site have a backup and restore functionality?
- How can you make my website more accessible?
Sources
DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

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.
They also conduct technical tuning pertaining to database management, API integration, site migration, and maintenance.
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.
The prices are overall determined based on the design, functionality, SEO, and developer expertise. Each phase also entails different prices:
- Planning and discovery: $1,000 to $5,000
- Design: $3,000 to $10,000
- Development: $5,000 to $20,000
- Testing and launch: $2,000 to $5,000
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.
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.
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.
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.
Some WordPress developers also offer performance optimization and database cleanup to maintain optimal loading speeds and a pleasant user experience.
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.
The most effective website security measures that top WordPress developers undertake include:
- Update management: Regularly patching WordPress core, functionalities, themes, and plugins to the latest versions
- Secure hosting: Using managed WordPress hosting with server-level security, such as isolated server environments (jailing) and proactive DDoS protection.
- SSL/HTTPS everywhere: Forcing HTTPS to encrypt data in transit.
- Off-site, automated backups: Implementing daily, automated backups that are stored in an independent location for prompt recovery if the server is compromised.
- Removing unused assets: Deleting, rather than just deactivating, unused plugins and themes to reduce the attack surface.
