What is a WordPress Developer?

In case you aren’t sure, here is a brief look at some of the things a professional WordPress developer can do:

  • Understand the inner workings of WordPress – HTML, PHP, CSS, JS, and possibly even MySQL
  • Custom design any type of website a client wants in terms of visual appeal and functionality
  • Develop WordPress themes and plugins from scratch
  • Enforce site security, backups, and regular updates
  • Any type of programming, code writing, product building, code maintaining, or bug fixing

In general, the term “WordPress developer” is an ambiguous one and changes depending on whom you ask. That’s why it is important to know exactly what you want when choosing the perfect one to work on your website.
