Overview

Why a hand-coded website outperforms a stack of plugins

Written for your business, not assembled

A custom PHP website is written specifically for your business instead of being assembled from a theme and a stack of plugins. Every page loads only the code it actually needs, which is why these sites respond so quickly. Visitors see content sooner, especially on a phone, and search engines can crawl the pages without wading through unused scripts. For a Canadian company competing in local search, that lean foundation is a real advantage from the first day online.

Full control and SEO from the start

Because the code is ours to shape, nothing is limited by what a theme allows. Layout, page structure, forms, calculators and page addresses are all built to fit your business. Search optimization is part of the build, not an add-on: clean headings, titles and descriptions, structured data, image sizes and internal links are planned for each page. It also becomes practical to launch with far more pages, such as a page for each service and each city you serve.

No plugins to keep patching

A site like this has no plugins, themes or page builder to keep patching, so it does not need a monthly maintenance plan just to keep running. That removes a common source of broken layouts and security problems. Prices are published and fixed by page count, and our Calgary head office builds for clients across Canada. If WordPress is a better fit for how your staff will edit the site, we will tell you, because we build those too.

FAQ

Custom PHP Websites: questions & answers

Short answers to what clients ask us most. Tap a question to see our answer.

Have a different question?Write to us and the answer comes from the people who would build your site.

Why choose a custom PHP website instead of WordPress?

Two Trees Studio

A custom PHP site is usually faster and needs far less upkeep because it carries no plugins, themes or page builder. WordPress is a better fit when your staff want to edit pages themselves every week. We build both and will recommend whichever suits how you plan to run the site.

How much does a custom PHP website cost?

Two Trees Studio

Packages start at $1,600 for up to 10 pages, $2,500 for up to 25 pages and $3,000 for up to 35 pages, in Canadian dollars plus applicable tax. Larger sites or special features receive a written quote first.

Does a PHP website really need no maintenance?

Two Trees Studio

No monthly maintenance plan is required, because there are no plugins or themes to update. Your hosting provider keeps the server software current, and we can help if a major PHP version change ever calls for a code update.

Are custom PHP websites good for SEO?

Two Trees Studio

Yes. Speed, clean code and full control over titles, headings, structured data and page addresses all help Google understand your site. Rankings still depend on your content, your competition and your reputation, so no one can honestly guarantee a position.

Can we change the website ourselves after launch?

Two Trees Studio

Text and photo changes are usually handled by our team, and a simple admin area can be added where your staff need to update things often. If you plan to edit many pages every week, WordPress may suit you better, and we will say so.

Can you move our existing website to custom PHP?

Two Trees Studio

Yes. We rebuild your pages in PHP and redirect each old address to its new equivalent, so existing search rankings have the best chance of carrying over. We review your current pages first to decide what to keep, improve or combine.
