FAQ results
How long does a Laravel project take?
Laravel projects vary depending on the scale and technical requirements. A smaller Laravel or Statamic website may take a few months, while a larger platform with bespoke functionality, portals, dashboards, integrations, complex content or advanced user journeys can take six to nine months or more.
Laravel projects benefit from proper planning because the platform is usually built around specific business requirements rather than a standard website structure.
What does Think Creative do?
Think Creative is a digital and creative agency that brings strategy, design, development and production together. We help organisations with branding, websites, Laravel platforms, WordPress websites, graphic design, animation, web apps, artwork and ongoing creative support.
When would a community or education organisation need Laravel?
Laravel may be a better fit when the site needs larger content structures, portals, directories, resource libraries, booking systems, gated content, integrations or more complex user journeys. It gives the organisation a stronger foundation while still allowing a familiar CMS experience through Statamic.
Why do Laravel websites cost more than WordPress websites?
Laravel websites usually involve more bespoke planning, development and technical structure. WordPress is often a strong fit for content-led websites, brochure sites and manageable CMS builds. Laravel is better suited to larger or more complex platforms where the site needs custom functionality, integrations, dashboards, portals, advanced content structures or more scalable architecture.
The additional cost usually reflects the extra thinking, design, development, testing and flexibility required to build something around the organisation’s specific needs.
