One thing I've learned about WordPress development is that building a website and maintaining it are two different challenges.

A website can look great at launch but become difficult to manage if it relies on poorly maintained plugins, unnecessary customisations, or a complicated editing setup.

That doesn't mean using multiple plugins or page builders is automatically bad. What matter more is how well they're chosen, configured, and maintained.

I think a good WordPress setup should make routine content updates straightforward and avoid unnecessary dependencies.

I'm curious how other developers approach this.
