WordPress vs a custom-coded website

WordPress is ideal when you want to edit content yourself and launch quickly at a sensible cost - which fits most business and content sites. A custom-coded build is better when you need a web app, heavy custom logic or maximum performance. Many businesses overpay for custom when WordPress would do, or fight WordPress when they really needed a custom app. We help you pick the right one - see our full website development cost guide.

Don't forget hosting and maintenance

WordPress needs hosting (a few thousand rupees a year), and because it updates often, a little ongoing maintenance keeps it secure and fast. Budget for both, or take a maintenance plan so it is handled for you.

Why build your WordPress site in India

India gives you skilled WordPress developers at a fraction of Western rates for the same quality. A site that costs ₹50,000 here would cost several times more abroad. Whether you need a quick theme site or a custom WordPress build, our team gives a fixed, transparent estimate up front with no lock-in.
