Will I own my domain?+
We recommend that you register the domain in an account you control. We can assist with connecting it to your website. Domain renewals are typically paid directly to the registrar.
Does a $500 website have monthly hosting fees?+
Many Starter sites qualify for free-tier static hosting, but free hosting depends on the provider, acceptable use and usage limits. A domain name, professional email or third-party form tool may still have separate charges. We confirm the proposed setup before launch.
What counts as a page?+
A page is a distinct website destination such as Home, About, Services, Gallery or Contact. Long sections within one page usually do not count separately. Complex booking, store or application features are scoped by effort, not page count alone.
Can my website have an appointment calendar?+
Yes. A booking button or embedded external scheduling tool may be enough for many businesses. A fully custom booking engine with live availability, staff accounts and payment handling is more advanced and quoted separately.
Can I update the website on my own?+
Yes, if an editable CMS or admin feature is included in your scope. Basic static sites are often updated by a developer. We will explain the tradeoffs and any related third-party fees.
Are payments and online stores included?+
Accepting payments through a hosted checkout can be simpler than building a full store. Product catalogs, carts, customer accounts, taxes and checkout flows require additional scope and may involve platform fees.
How long does development take?+
Simple sites may be completed quickly after content is received, but timing depends on pages, feedback, revisions and integrations. We provide a project-specific schedule in writing before work starts.
What will I need to provide?+
Usually your business name, contact information, services, brand assets, preferred photos, desired website content and access to your domain or existing service providers. We will give you a focused checklist.
Are revisions, photography and content writing included?+
The approved proposal defines the number of revision rounds and any professional photography, licensed images or copywriting services. We identify any additional work and costs before adding it to the project.
Will my website appear first on Google?+
We build search-friendly foundations, including page titles and mobile-friendly layouts. Search rankings depend on many factors and cannot be guaranteed.
Can I start small and expand later?+
Yes. A static brochure website can be a sensible starting point. When your business needs booking, e-commerce, editable content or custom software, we can discuss an upgrade and price the new scope.
How do I pay for my website?+
We send a written quote and collect approved customer payments securely through Stripe. The deposit amount, remaining balance and milestones are specified in your project agreement.
