Question 1

How does headless WordPress work?

Accepted Answer

Headless WordPress separates content management from presentation. WordPress handles content creation and storage, delivering it via REST API or GraphQL to any frontend technology. Your content team uses familiar WordPress interfaces while developers build custom user experiences using modern frameworks like React or Vue.

Question 2

Is headless WordPress a good solution for agencies?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. WP Headless allows agencies to deliver faster, more scalable websites while positioning themselves for premium projects. It’s ideal for agencies ready to invest in modern development skills and target clients that need high-performance, scalable WordPress solutions.

Question 3

Can I use headless WordPress with WooCommerce?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but with considerations. WooCommerce can serve as a headless backend for product data, but you’ll need to rebuild the shopping experience on the frontend. Many agencies pair WooCommerce with modern e-commerce frameworks for superior performance and user experience. Learn more in our WooCommerce development services.

Question 4

How does headless WordPress affect SEO?

Accepted Answer

SEO requires more manual setup since you lose WordPress’s built-in features. However, headless sites often achieve better SEO performance due to faster load times and cleaner code. You’ll need to implement meta tags, sitemaps, and structured data in your frontend application.
