WordPress Development services in Kerala

When you want a CMS your team will edit daily without developer help. WordPress excels at: content-heavy sites (blogs, news, knowledge bases) where SEO matters, marketing sites where the team wants to publish new pages weekly without engineering bottleneck, sites where your team has WordPress comfort already. Next.js wins when performance + custom UX matter more than CMS ease. Shopify wins for product-selling. Match the tool to the team + the use case, not to the agency's familiarity.

Real ranges. Freelancer ThemeForest install + customisation: ₹5-25K (basic, breaks at scale, no maintenance plan). Agency-grade premium theme build (10-15 pages, proper plugin selection, hosting + caching): ₹60K-1.5L. Custom theme development (no template, fully bespoke): ₹1.5-4L. Adsomia's founding offer is ₹95K (₹1.5L list) for 10-15 page WordPress; startup tier ₹65K for 5-page launch site.

Depends on use case. Astra + Elementor Pro for marketing sites that need frequent layout changes. Kadence Theme for content-heavy sites with editorial workflows. GeneratePress + Gutenberg blocks for performance-prioritised sites. Bricks Builder for advanced design with native performance. We don't default to one theme — we pick based on your team's editing comfort + the site's content patterns + performance requirements. Custom theme development makes sense when your design needs go beyond what premium themes can deliver.

8-12 is the sweet spot for most marketing + content sites. Below 8 = you're missing essential functionality (caching, SEO, security, forms). Above 15 = you're stacking plugin conflicts + performance drags. The standard Adsomia WordPress stack: Rank Math (SEO), Wordfence or Solid Security (security), WP Rocket or LiteSpeed (caching), Smush or ShortPixel (image optimisation), Elementor Pro or Bricks (page builder), Fluent Forms or WPForms (forms), Updraft Plus (backups), Site Kit (analytics). 8 plugins covers most needs.

If we build it right, yes — Core Web Vitals green, schema markup deployed (Article, Organization, FAQPage, Breadcrumb), clean URL structure, mobile-first design, fast hosting + caching, proper redirect handling. WordPress doesn't inherently rank worse than Next.js or any other platform; sites rank because of content + entity signals + technical health, not the underlying framework. The agencies that ship WordPress sites that don't rank usually shipped the SEO infrastructure poorly, not because WordPress can't compete.

Setup yes; ongoing maintenance optionally. Initial engagement includes hosting setup (Cloudways or Kinsta typical) + CDN + initial security hardening + 30-day post-launch support. Ongoing maintenance is available as a retainer (₹8-25K/month depending on scope): WordPress core + plugin updates monthly, security monitoring, weekly backups, performance audits quarterly, uptime monitoring. Most clients run it themselves after a 60-min training; some prefer the retainer for peace-of-mind.

Premium-theme-based 10-15 page site: 4-6 weeks. Custom-theme development from scratch (no template): 8-12 weeks. Migration from another platform: 6-10 weeks depending on content volume. Faster than these usually means corners cut; slower than these usually means scope creep. We give you a per-week milestone schedule at scope sign-off.

Yes. Migration is a defined engagement — content export from existing platform (pages, blog posts, images, forms), WordPress installation + theme + plugin setup, content migration with formatting preserved, URL redirect rules from old structure to new (preserves SEO), 30-day post-migration support. Typical timeline: 4-8 weeks. Pricing typically ₹65K-2L depending on content volume + complexity.
