Freelancer vs Agency vs Offshore: Real Comparison
| Provider | Basic Website | Quality Risk | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fiverr/Upwork freelancer | ₹5,000 – ₹15,000 | High | None |
| Local Faridabad/Delhi freelancer | ₹10,000 – ₹25,000 | Medium | Limited |
| Local agency (NodeAscend) | ₹15,000 – ₹50,000 | Low | Ongoing |
| Mumbai/Bangalore agency | ₹40,000 – ₹1,50,000 | Low | Ongoing |
The honest truth: A ₹5,000 Fiverr website will likely have template code, poor performance, and zero SEO setup. You’ll spend more fixing it later than building it right the first time.
