Frequently Asked Questions: Web Design
In short, a website design is quoted based on the needs of each individual project. Every website has different requirements, so I design and develop a customized site for you based on your needs. I’ll ask you a lot of questions, assess your needs, and provide you with a quote. My websites are usually in the $1,000 range, but can be more or less depending on your needs.
I aim to deliver a project in four to six weeks on average, but clients truly determine the pace of each project. During the initial stages, how much input you can provide, your availability for feedback, and how soon the content is ready, all of these factors determine the speed at which the project will be completed. A site’s functionality requirements may also be a factor – sites with greater complexity will require a longer development period.
Yes. WordPress is a great no-code tool that allows me to make websites in weeks, and not months like traditional coding. There are no limitation when building in WordPress and I can use custom code whenever necessary. It’s also more cost-effective for clients to hire no-code developers since project turnaround time is dramatically decreased.
No, you can be anywhere in the world! We are open to working with businesses from any region.
My clients are always encouraged to take control of their website and be able to manage it themselves. WordPress has a separate editing feature for clients, a simplified editing interface specifically for you to make changes to your content and media. Through this simplified editor it will be easy for you to keep your website up to date without changing layout or structure. As well as providing you with comprehensive video tutorials, I will provide you with any support you might need along the way.
If you have a site that needs maintenance, for example new product additions, new recurring blogs, recurring events etc, I can keep it up to date for you on a month-month contract, ask your account executive for more details.
Yes absolutely! Your website will be responsive on all devices from smart phones, to super large monitors. Regardless of what type of device your website visitor is on, rest assured they are getting a great user experience from your website.
Projects are split into 2 payments. There will be an initial 50% deposit to lock in the project, coordinate resources, and begin production. The remaining 50% will be paid once you are completely satisfied with your new website and we are ready to go live.
I accept all major Credit Cards, Paypal, Crypto, and Western Union.
Most of the time, that is you. You know best how you would like to portray your business. However, if you do not have any content for the site that is not a problem. I have copywriters that can create unique content for your business at an additional cost.
When it comes to hosting a website, there is domain hosting and website hosting. I can package the custom development code and provide it to you so you can host it somewhere else. Website domain and email hosting can be done with a variety of registrars, I always recommended Hostinger services due to their award-winning 24/7 customer service.
I’m only an email away. Anytime you have a question or need help with a website I made for you, reach out to me. I’ll assist you with any questions you have.
For design to WordPress projects, the most accurate quotes come if I’m able to see the actual design I’d be building. If that is not possible, wireframes and/or an overview of the functionality included in the site and different page templates that would be involved will allow me to at least roughly ballpark costs for you. Because the project can shift a bit as the final design comes together, I never commit to a final firm development rate ahead of seeing the actual final design files to be built, however.
You name it and I’ve probably worked with it. I most commonly work with Photoshop, Adobe XD, and Figma.
I accept all major Credit Cards, Paypal, Crypto, and Western Union.
Yes. A deposit equal to 50% of the project fee is due before any work begins with the remainder being payable upon completion.
I work to optimize every project of mine for search engines in terms of technical SEO, such as using header tags appropriately to create a hierarchical content structure, providing SEO metadata and alt tag control via the backend, including relevant schema markup, and using valid, standards-compliant code. However, I don’t offer content strategy guidance on specific keywords to target or anything of that nature. I just make sure nothing is standing in the way on the code side when it comes to SEO performance. Technical SEO does not guarantee strong search engine performance standalone and should work hand-in-hand with content optimization and other marketing. If interested in more extensive SEO services beyond technical SEO, please let me know & I can advise appropriately.
If your site is built on WordPress, there will be ongoing updates for both the WordPress core & any utilized WordPress plug-ins. While these updates can be pushed through in the admin without requiring a developer, if preferable, monthly support packages are available that take care of these type of updates, as well as handle things like making complete site backups and other tasks to ensure your site is running smoothly & securely.
WordPress is a versatile content management system that offers great flexibility for designing and managing websites. With WordPress, you have full control over your website and can make updates easily, without needing development skills. Whether it’s adding videos, editing content, or managing events, WordPress allows you to make changes effortlessly. Additionally, I provide personalized training to ensure you understand how to manage your website effectively.
Yes. WordPress is extremely user friendly and the admin interface can be made super clear to where even someone who is admittedly not very good with computers would be able to update their website. I also provide training for every one of my builds that outlines how various updates can be made. If you can send an email or fill out a basic web form, you can update your WordPress website.
