WordPress vs Custom Code: What Nagpur Businesses Should Choose
WordPress isn't wrong, it's just slower by default and needs ongoing plugin maintenance. Here's when that trade-off is worth it, and when it isn't.

- Make sure code ownership is contractually assigned to you in writing.
- Demand a speed warranty specifying a minimum Google PageSpeed score.
