Custom vs. Template Websites: The Honest Comparison

Templates are fast and cheap to start; custom builds are faster, more secure, and fully owned over time. The right choice depends on how much your website matters to your business.

Key things to keep in mind

• Integrated with the tools and workflows you already use
• 100% custom design and hand-written code — no WordPress bloat or builder lock-in
• You own the source code outright
• Server-side SEO and structured data off-the-shelf sites can't match
