"WordPress mein banwaun ya custom?" is a common question. WordPress powers a huge share of websites worldwide and is easy to update. But it also needs regular maintenance, and a badly built WordPress site can be slow and easy to hack. Here's an honest look at WordPress website design in Ludhiana.
When WordPress is a good choice
- Blogs and content-heavy sites where you post often
- You want to edit pages yourself with a visual editor
- A WooCommerce store with standard features
- You may change developers later. Many developers know WordPress
When a custom website is better
- Speed is critical, for example landing pages for Google Ads
- Unique features: taxi fare calculators, booking systems, dealer portals, admin panels
- You don't want plugin updates and security worries
- Simple sites with few changes that should just stay fast and secure
Many of the taxi, hotel and manufacturer sites we build in Ludhiana are custom PHP for exactly these reasons.

Our approach at Joboo Web
We don't push one platform. We ask what the website needs to do, how often you'll update it, and how important speed is, and then recommend WordPress, custom PHP or Shopify. See website design in Ludhiana.
