Business owners with coding knowledge and maybe a formal education in PHP Programming, Javascript or CHMOD tend to develop their own plugins catering to their specific needs, thereby, getting a more advanced website.

A note for new business owners or people looking to design a new website:

WordPress.com and WordPress.org, although similar sounding but are completely different in their functionality and services offered. WordPress.com is a great platform for budding bloggers to begin with their online presence but the themes and templates available are limited and users cannot avail the benefits of plugins. Whereas, WordPress.org requires users to have their own domain and hosting but presents hefty benefits. It is a much better option for marketing, advertising and growth, and this is where WordPress Plugins come into play.

Self-hosted website owners have a lot of advantage when it comes to functionality of their website and even from designing point of view. You can make use of tons of readymade WordPress Plugins or contact a WordPress Development firm for creating and managing unique, personalized websites that attract actual traffic.
