How to create a wordpress website as a SAAS

WordPress is commonly known as a blogging platform, but it can actually be used to build full-fledged software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. The key is to leverage the vast library of WordPress plugins along with custom code.

The plugin ecosystem provides ready-made solutions for core SaaS requirements like user management, subscriptions, payments, security, and more.

Plugins like WishList Member, S2Member, and others enable features like user account tiers, access controls, payment gateways, and more out-of-the-box.

While plugins provide the base, custom plugins and themes are required to build the actual application logic and user experience.

WordPress' flexibility allows customizing everything from the UI, using templates and shortcodes, to managing data via custom post types.

To deliver a seamless branded app experience, techniques like locking down wp-admin, obscuring WordPress paths/files, and customizing the entire frontend can be employed.

The built-in hooks and filters provide unlimited customization possibilities.

With the right combination of third-party plugins, custom code tailored to your requirements, and a well-architected server setup, WordPress can be transformed from a blogging tool into a robust SaaS application platform rapidly and cost-effectively.
