These steps involve everything from design to content creation to coding \u2013 the list goes on. Perhaps one of the most important stages of the development process, however, occurs in the early planning stage and consists of choosing whether to create (or revamp) your website using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/website-services\/web-development\/\">custom web development services<\/a> or a standard content management system (CMS). Before we dive into some key considerations regarding which web development method to pick, let\u2019s define each type:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Custom Web Development<\/strong>: A custom website is built from scratch, which lets you create a one-of-a-kind site that is designed specifically to cater to your needs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Standard&#8221; Template CMS<\/strong>: A standard CMS is essentially software that provides you with a predefined interface and some basic functions. It typically allows for a certain level of personalization, but the limitations of a standard CMS are pretty significant (especially when compared to custom web development).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Infographic: Comparing a Template CMS to Custom Web Development<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_8588\" style=\"width: 734px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8588\" class=\"wp-image-8588 size-large lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-724x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison Chart Template CMS vs Custom Development\" width=\"724\" height=\"1024\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-724x1024.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-768x1086.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-1086x1536.jpg 1086w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1-1448x2048.jpg 1448w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Comparison-Chart-Graphic-for-_Decoding-Your-Options_-Post-1.jpg 1587w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 724px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 724\/1024;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8588\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Infographic resources from Canva.com and Maisie Cantrell<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Key Considerations<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve got the basic definitions of each development option, let\u2019s take a peek at some important factors that you should consider before making your final selection.<\/p>\n<h3>ROI &amp; Conversion<\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019re going to cut right to the chase \u2013 industry professionals who use custom web development services earn a higher return on investment (ROI) than those who create their sites with a standard CMS. This can be attributed to the fact that, unlike pre-designed site templates, custom websites are designed with your unique business objectives and specific target audience in mind. This plays a crucial role in generating significantly more conversions and sales on your site.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/seo-services\/\">SEO<\/a> Positioning<\/h3>\n<p>Custom web development actually gives you a leg-up when it comes to your ranking on search engine results pages (SERPs). This is because from-scratch websites are given preference by search engines, allowing your site to move upwards on the list and generate more online traffic.<\/p>\n<h3>User Experience<\/h3>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webfx.com\/blog\/marketing\/user-experience-matters-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WebFX<\/a>, 88 percent of online consumers are less likely to return to a site after a bad experience \u2013 yikes. If that statistic doesn\u2019t convince you that your website\u2019s user experience (i.e., functionality, usability, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/website-services\/web-design\/\">design<\/a>) is important, we\u2019re not sure what will. With a standard CMS, it can be difficult to get the perfect mix of visual and functional elements that are needed to satisfy your visitors. With custom web development, however, you have more opportunities to create an attractive, user-friendly, and efficient site that aims to create the ideal user experience and fulfill consumer needs.<\/p>\n<h3>Performance<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_8331\" style=\"width: 396px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8331\" class=\"wp-image-8331 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/code-impacts-website-performance-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"386\" height=\"257\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/code-impacts-website-performance-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/code-impacts-website-performance.jpg 700w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 386px) 100vw, 386px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 386px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 386\/257;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8331\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Because custom web development starts with a \u201cblank slate\u201d when it comes to code, it tends to yield better results in terms of site performance. With some template-based CMS programs, on the other hand, there is a lot of unnecessary code installed, which can heavily impact your site\u2019s load times and cause other performance issues. (Consult your web designer for advice on avoiding messy code.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While building a custom website is probably much more exciting than working with a pre-designed template, custom web development isn\u2019t necessarily the best solution for everyone. Businesses with limited budgets and tight deadlines, for example, may find that a standard CMS works best for their application. However, if that isn\u2019t the case, it is highly recommended that you move forward with custom development.
