WordPress & WooCommerce Development

WordPress sites built to bring you enquiries, not compliments.

A WordPress development company in Madurai, using AI to build faster and engineers to make sure it holds up.

We build on WordPress and Divi, plan and write code with Claude Code, and audit every site before it goes live — speed, mobile, on-page SEO, schema, security. Then we wire it to your Google Business Profile, your payment gateway, and WhatsApp, so an enquiry reaches your phone in seconds instead of sitting in a mailbox nobody checks.

Pre-launch audit 42/42 checks
  • Core Web Vitals pass on 4G mobile
  • Titles, meta and H-structure mapped to keywords
  • LocalBusiness & FAQ schema published
  • Google Business Profile linked and verified
  • Payment gateway tested in live mode
  • Forms delivering to inbox, CRM and WhatsApp
  • SSL, firewall, login hardening, offsite backups

Every GegoSoft build clears this list before handover. You get the report.

Most WordPress sites in Madurai fail for the same five reasons

If your site looks fine but the phone stays quiet, it is almost always one of these. We check all five before we quote you anything.

It is slow on a phone

Bloated themes, unoptimised images and ten overlapping plugins. Most visitors leave before the first screen paints, and Google notices.

It is invisible in local search

No Google Business Profile, no NAP consistency, no location schema. You do not appear in the map pack where local buyers actually look.

The contact form goes nowhere

Submissions land in spam, or in one inbox nobody opens. Genuine enquiries are lost and you never find out they existed.

You cannot take money on it

No cart, no gateway, no UPI. Every sale needs a phone call, so you lose the customers who wanted to buy at eleven at night.

Nobody maintains it

Core and plugins unpatched for a year. It works until it is defaced, deindexed, or silently broken on mobile after an update.

The copy says nothing

Pages full of "quality solutions" and "customer satisfaction" that match no search anyone types and convince nobody who reads them.

Who we work well with

We would rather be straight with you than take a project that disappoints both sides. Here is the honest split.

Good fit
  • Businesses in Madurai, Trichy, Coimbatore and Chennai that need the site to generate real enquiries and bookings
  • Retailers and D2C brands launching or rebuilding a WooCommerce store with Indian payment gateways
  • Clinics, schools, builders and manufacturers who need local SEO and a Google Business Profile that actually ranks
  • Companies stuck on a slow, hacked or abandoned WordPress site that needs rescuing and rebuilding
  • Teams that want WhatsApp and CRM automation behind the form, not just a form
  • International clients wanting a Divi or WordPress team in India on a monthly retainer
Probably not a fit
  • A single-page site for under ₹10,000 — a freelancer will serve you better and we will say so
  • "Just install this theme and match the demo" with no strategy behind it
  • Sites needed live in 48 hours, since our audit alone takes longer than that
  • Investment schemes, MLM, HYIP or unregulated crypto products — we do not take this work
  • Projects where content and product data will never be supplied and the site has to launch anyway
  • Anyone wanting guaranteed rank-one positions by a fixed date, which nobody can honestly promise

What we build on WordPress

Four things, done properly, rather than a menu of forty. Each one is a full build with the audit, the integrations and the handover included.

Lead generation

Business website on Divi

A structured, keyword-mapped site for a service business that needs the phone to ring.

  • Custom Divi layout, no demo template
  • Service and location landing pages
  • Local SEO and Google Business Profile setup
  • Automated enquiry forms with WhatsApp alerts
Online selling

WooCommerce store

A store built to take orders and payments cleanly on mobile, where most of your traffic will be.

  • Product, variation and inventory setup
  • Razorpay, PayU, PhonePe, Stripe or PayPal
  • Shipping, GST and invoice configuration
  • Abandoned cart and order alerts on WhatsApp
Rescue and migrate

Rebuild and migration

For sites that are slow, hacked, deindexed, or built by someone who has disappeared.

  • Malware removal and full hardening
  • Migration from Wix, Blogger, static HTML or old hosts
  • Redirect mapping so rankings survive the move
  • Speed rebuild, usually on Divi or a light child theme
Ongoing

Care and growth plan

Monthly work that keeps the site fast, safe and improving instead of quietly decaying.

  • Weekly core, theme and plugin updates
  • Daily offsite backups and uptime monitoring
  • Content and landing pages added each month
  • Named engineer and a support desk that replies
How we work

AI does the volume. Engineers own what ships.

Every one of our eighteen engineers works with Claude Code daily — on client projects and on the six products we run ourselves. On a WordPress build, that changes four specific things.

Content at depth, not filler

Our SEO team maps the keywords; we then draft service pages, location pages, product descriptions and FAQs against that map, and edit every line by hand. You get thirty genuinely useful pages instead of six thin ones — which is what actually ranks and what AI search engines are able to cite.

Custom Divi modules and clean child themes

When Divi cannot do something, we write it — custom modules, ACF field groups, WooCommerce hooks, REST endpoints. Claude Code drafts and reviews that PHP and JavaScript, an engineer reads every line, and nothing reaches your site without review.

Audits that are exhaustive, not sampled

Broken links, missing alt text, heading order, schema validity, accessibility contrast, orphan pages, redirect chains, render-blocking assets. We run these across the whole site, not on five sample pages, and we hand you the report at launch.

Migrations that would not otherwise be worth doing

Moving eight hundred posts from an old CMS with a broken taxonomy used to be quoted as a month of manual work. We script it, verify it record by record, and map every old URL to its new one so your rankings come across intact.

To be clear about what this does and does not mean: AI writes first drafts and finds problems faster than a person can. It does not decide your architecture, sign off your security, or take responsibility for your launch. Those stay with a named engineer, and that is the part you are actually paying for.

What ships with every site

Not an upsell list. These are included in every build we hand over, because a site without them does not do its job.

  • Mobile-first build Tested on real Android and iOS devices, not just a browser resize.
  • Speed and Core Web Vitals Image compression, caching, lazy loading, minimal plugin load.
  • On-page SEO Title and meta for every page, clean heading order, internal linking, XML sitemap.
  • Structured data LocalBusiness, Service, Product, FAQ and Breadcrumb schema in JSON-LD.
  • Google Business Profile Created or claimed, categories fixed, NAP matched to the site.
  • Analytics and Search Console GA4 and Search Console connected, conversion events configured.
  • Automated contact forms Wufoo or WPForms with routing, autoresponders and spam filtering.
  • WhatsApp notifications New enquiries pushed to your team's phone the moment they arrive.
  • Payment gateway Configured and tested in live mode, with UPI where the gateway supports it.
  • Security hardening SSL, firewall, login protection, file permissions, malware scanning.
  • Daily offsite backups Stored away from your host so a server failure is not a business failure.
  • Training and handover A recorded walkthrough so your team can edit content without calling us.
Local SEO

Built to show up in the Madurai map pack

Most local buying decisions happen in the three map results above the organic listings. Getting into that block is a build decision, not something you bolt on afterwards.

We set your Google Business Profile up properly — right primary category, service areas, hours, products, photos — and make the site agree with it. Name, address and phone match exactly everywhere. Location and service pages are written for how people actually search, and LocalBusiness schema tells Google precisely where you operate.

Our two in-house SEO specialists handle this, and also run SEO Services Madurai if you want ongoing ranking work after launch.

  • Profile audit and claim We find duplicate and unclaimed listings, merge them, and verify the correct one.
  • Category and service setup The primary category decides which searches you can appear for at all.
  • NAP consistency Identical name, address and phone across the site, the profile and every directory.
  • Location and service pages Real pages for each service and area, not one page stuffed with city names.
  • Schema and citations LocalBusiness markup plus listings on the Indian directories that still carry weight.
  • Review flow A simple link and a follow-up message so happy customers actually leave reviews.
WooCommerce & payments

A store that takes money without a phone call

We build WooCommerce stores where checkout works on a mid-range Android phone on patchy mobile data, because that is the customer you are actually serving.

Gateway integration is done and tested in live mode before handover — including UPI, cards, netbanking, wallets and EMI where your gateway supports them. GST rates, HSN codes, invoice format and shipping rules are configured to match how you already do business, not to a generic default.

For stores that outgrow standard Woo, we write custom plugins: multi-vendor logic, subscription billing, bulk pricing tiers, ERP and Tally sync, and multi-warehouse inventory.

Razorpay PayU PhonePe Cashfree CCAvenue Instamojo Stripe PayPal UPI / QR Cash on delivery
Checkout readiness Livemode tested
  • Real transaction placed and refunded before launch
  • Failed-payment and retry paths verified
  • GST, HSN and invoice numbering configured
  • Shipping zones, weights and free-ship rules set
  • Order emails and WhatsApp alerts confirmed
  • Checkout tested on 4G, mid-range Android
  • Refund and cancellation policy pages published

We do not hand over a store we have not bought something from ourselves.

Enquiry automation

The form is the cheap part. The follow-up is where deals are lost.

A visitor who fills your form is comparing you against two other companies right now. If your first reply comes tomorrow morning, you have already lost. So we do not stop at building the form.

Enquiries reach your team on WhatsApp within seconds, the customer gets an instant acknowledgement, and every lead lands in a CRM where you can see what happened to it. We use Wufoo or WPForms for the form itself, and connect to WhatsApp Business API, HubSpot, Zoho, or a shared inbox — whatever you already use.

  • Visitor submits the form Short, mobile-friendly, with spam filtering that does not block real people.
  • Customer gets an instant reply An automatic acknowledgement with what happens next and when.
  • Your team is alerted on WhatsApp Name, phone, service and page they came from, pushed to the right person.
  • The lead enters your CRM Tagged by source and campaign, so you can tell which pages actually pay.
  • Follow-up runs automatically A reminder if nobody has responded within your chosen window.
  • You see the numbers monthly Enquiries by page and source, so budget goes where it works.

Packages and indicative pricing

We publish these so you can tell in thirty seconds whether we are in your range. Final quotes are fixed-price after a scoping call — no hourly surprises.

How a build actually runs

Six stages. You see working pages in week one, not a slide deck in week four.

Scoping call and keyword research

Days 1–3

We work out who you sell to and what they type into Google. That research decides the sitemap, so structure follows demand rather than your org chart.

Fixed-price proposal

Day 4

Page list, integrations, timeline and one number. If the scope changes later we tell you the cost before we do the work, never after.

Design and content in parallel

Weeks 1–2

Layouts and copy are drafted together rather than in sequence, so text is written for the design and the design is built around real content.

Build on a staging site

Weeks 2–5

You get a private link from the first week and can watch pages appear. Feedback goes into a shared list so nothing is lost in a chat thread.

Audit and integration testing

Final week

The 42-point audit runs, payments are tested with real transactions, forms are fired end to end, and everything is checked on physical devices.

Launch, training and handover

Launch day

We move it live, submit the sitemap, hand over every credential, and record a walkthrough so your team can update content on their own.

Why trust us with it

We run our own products, so we live with the code we write

Plenty of agencies can show you a portfolio of sites they handed over and never saw again. We also maintain six products of our own in production, with paying users and real support tickets. That changes how you build.

GegoK12

An open-source school ERP running for more than twenty institutions internationally. Multi-tenant, actively maintained, and used daily by schools that would tell us within an hour if it broke.

eTender Software

A tender management platform handling document workflows and bid submissions, built to survive audit trails and deadline pressure.

ChurchCMS

Congregation, giving and event management for churches, with the kind of non-technical users who make you take usability seriously.

churchcms.app

We have been a registered company in Madurai since 2017, with long-running clients in the USA, Australia, Europe and Dubai. Beyond WordPress we build in Laravel, NestJS, React, Next.js and Flutter — which matters when your site eventually needs to talk to an ERP, a mobile app, or a payment system nobody has written a plugin for.

Questions we get asked before signing

How much does a WordPress website cost in Madurai?
Our builds start at ₹45,000 for a small business site of up to eight pages, around ₹95,000 for a lead-generation site with local SEO and WhatsApp automation, and from ₹1,75,000 for a full WooCommerce store. You can get a WordPress site far cheaper than this, and for a simple brochure site that may be the right decision. What you are paying for here is keyword research, written content, a 42-point pre-launch audit, integrations tested in live mode, and a company that will still exist in three years.
How long does the build take?
Two to three weeks for a small site, four to six weeks for a lead-generation build, and six to ten weeks for WooCommerce. The single thing that most often delays a project is content — photos, product data and approvals from your side. We will tell you exactly what we need on day one so it does not become the bottleneck.
Why do you use Divi rather than Elementor or a custom theme?
Divi gives your team a visual editor they can genuinely use after we leave, which matters more than developer preference. We build custom layouts rather than installing demo templates, and we write child-theme code and custom modules wherever Divi's defaults would slow the site down. If your project needs Elementor, a block theme, or a fully headless setup with Next.js, we build those too — we have shipped headless WordPress with a Next.js front end and a Flutter app on top.
You mention AI and Claude Code. Is my site written by a bot?
No. AI drafts content, writes first-pass code, and runs audits across the whole site far faster than a person can. Every line is then reviewed and edited by one of our engineers or SEO specialists before it reaches your site, and a named engineer signs off the launch. The benefit to you is depth and speed: thirty properly researched pages instead of six thin ones, and a genuinely exhaustive audit rather than a spot check.
Will the site rank on Google?
We build the foundations that make ranking possible — site structure, page speed, schema, internal linking, Google Business Profile, and content written against real keyword research. Ranking itself depends on your competition, your domain history and the ongoing work after launch, so nobody who promises you position one by a fixed date is being honest with you. If you want continuing ranking work, our two in-house SEO specialists offer that as a monthly service.
Can you fix a site that has been hacked or has stopped ranking?
Yes, and it is a good part of what we do. We remove malware, close the entry point, clean the database, request reconsideration where Google has flagged the site, and harden everything afterwards. Sometimes cleaning is the right answer and sometimes rebuilding is cheaper — we will look at your site and tell you which, free of charge, usually within two working days.
Which payment gateways can you integrate?
Razorpay, PayU, PhonePe, Cashfree, CCAvenue, Instamojo, Stripe and PayPal, plus UPI and QR flows where the gateway supports them and cash on delivery. We configure and test each one with a real transaction in live mode before handover, including the failed-payment and refund paths that usually get skipped.
What happens after launch?
You get 30 to 90 days of support included depending on the package, and a recorded training walkthrough so your team can edit content themselves. After that, care plans start at ₹6,000 a month covering weekly updates, daily offsite backups, uptime and malware monitoring, and a set number of change requests. You are not locked in — the site, hosting and all credentials are yours.
Do you work with clients outside Madurai?
Regularly. We are based in Madurai and happy to meet in person across Tamil Nadu, but we have long-running clients in the USA, Australia, Europe and Dubai working entirely remotely. Calls, staging links and a shared task list handle the rest.

Tell us what the site needs to do.

Send us your current site and what you want it to achieve. We will look at it properly and come back within two working days with an honest read — including telling you if you do not need a rebuild at all.
