Many of our WordPress developers are multi-skilled across both PHP/WordPress and React/Next.js. They can architect headless setups where WordPress serves as the content management backend and a JavaScript framework handles the frontend. They can build: Next.js frontends powered by WordPress as a headless CMS, WPGraphQL and REST API data layers for decoupled architectures, custom Gutenberg blocks using React and TypeScript, and traditional WordPress themes and plugins alongside headless setups. Because they have deep experience in both stacks, they can work on the full stack of a headless project rather than only one side — useful for agencies handling a mix of traditional and modern WordPress builds. **What exactly is included in the monthly cost?** When you hire dedicated WordPress developers from Support Resort, the monthly fee covers everything you need with no hidden costs: A full-time dedicated WordPress developer (37.5 hours per week, Monday through Friday), US$100 per month in AI credits, employment expenses, benefits, and insurance handled by us, development infrastructure and essential tools, and basic supervision and escalation pathways. Not included: Plugin or theme licenses and additional AI access beyond the $100 monthly allocation. **Who is responsible for the cost of AI tokens?** Support Resort includes $100/month in AI credits with every developer. Your developer can use AI tools (with your consent) to accelerate development. You have full control over AI usage. **Why can't I find you on public review sites?** We were established in 2003 and have retained our clients for up to 19 years. We don't ask our customers to write public reviews because: (1) Client confidentiality — our Terms and Conditions require us to keep all customer information confidential, (2) Our clients need anonymity — we provide a white-label service, and (3) We don't manufacture testimonials. Instead, try our one-week risk-free trial. **Can I hire a WordPress developer as a vibe coding cleanup specialist?** Yes. AI-generated code from tools like Cursor, Copilot, or Claude often works but isn't production-ready. Our dedicated WordPress developers can review and refactor AI-generated code, remove redundant code and fix edge cases, ensure code follows WordPress best practices, and add proper tests, types, and documentation. **Can your developers work without AI assistance?** Absolutely. We prioritize your IP and data security. Developers use AI only with your explicit authorization. You can disable AI entirely, allow it only for specific tasks, or specify which AI platforms are acceptable. Our WordPress developers are experienced programmers first. **Why should agencies hire from Support Resort?** When you hire dedicated WordPress developers through Support Resort, you get developers who stay, meaning agencies that deliver. 72% of clients have stayed 5+ years. We're employers, not a platform. Developers are tested before you meet them. All developers complete secure coding training. White-label ready. **What guarantees do you offer?** We offer three guarantees when you hire dedicated WordPress developers: 100% Satisfaction Guarantee (one-week trial, pay nothing if not happy), Free Replacement Guarantee (free overlap period for onboarding a new developer), and No Lock-In (month-to-month, cancel anytime). **How does the trial week work?** The trial is genuinely risk-free: Your WordPress developer works on actual client projects for one week. No upfront payment required. If satisfied, pay the first month's fee to continue. **How do I assign tasks to my developer?** Directly and simply. Use your tools (Slack, Basecamp, Asana, Trello), assign tasks like you would to any team member, and receive daily progress reports. Your developer focuses solely on your agency's projects. **When would my developer work?** Full-time: 8 hours per day (including 30-min break), Monday to Friday. Skilled & Seasoned Developers: Morning Shift 6am-2pm IST or Evening Shift 2pm-10pm IST. Lead Developers work during Indian business hours (8am-4pm, 9am-5pm, or 10am-6pm IST). **Do you offer part-time WordPress developers?** While the primary model is full-time dedicated developers, part-time arrangements are available for ongoing maintenance, agencies testing the waters, or supplementing an in-house team during busy periods. **How do you handle confidential client information?** Every team member is bound by non-disclosure clauses. We never use freelancers or subcontractors, only our own vetted employees. Developers work from secure, IT-managed workstations. **Who owns the code?** You do. All code written for your clients belongs to you and your clients, whether it's a custom theme, plugin, or WooCommerce extension. **How does billing work?** Billing is predictable and agency-friendly. Trial is free with no credit card required. Fixed monthly rate. Cancel anytime. Payment options include domestic bank transfer (USA, Canada, UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand), international wire transfer, credit card via Wise, and PayPal. ## Related Services **Need design help too?** Our WordPress designers create stunning themes and customizations while your developers build the functionality.
