Frequently asked
questions.
These are the questions people usually ask before getting in touch. If yours isn't here, ask it on the contact form.
-
01 How much does a website cost?
Every website is quoted individually. The price depends on the number of pages, the content, any integrations, and how much launch support you need. Strategy-only projects cost a fraction of a full website. After our first call, I send a written estimate.
-
02 How long does a website project take?
A smaller site with the content ready usually takes four to eight weeks. Most full website projects take six to ten weeks. Larger sites with custom integrations or a launch in stages can take two to four months.
-
03 Do you write the copy and design the site, or just build it?
Both. I handle the strategy, site structure, copywriting, design, development, and launch, so the words and the design are planned together.
-
04 Do you work with businesses outside Wilmington?
Yes. I am based in Wilmington, North Carolina, and most projects run remotely by email, video calls, and recorded walkthroughs. If you are nearby, we can meet in person to start, but it is not required.
-
05 Will I be able to update the site myself after launch?
Yes. The parts you need to change, like text, images, team members, projects, and posts, can be edited through a simple admin screen or content file without technical skills. Changes to the design or layout usually come back to me.
-
06 What platform or CMS do you build on?
It depends on your business, who will edit the site, and how long it needs to last. Most of the sites I build are fast custom builds that need little maintenance and are easy to edit. You own your accounts and content, and I document the setup at handoff.
-
07 Do you handle hosting, domains, and email?
Yes. I set up DNS, hosting, analytics, and email if you need it, and I document all of it at launch. Domains and accounts are always registered in your business name, not mine.
-
08 Is a maintenance plan required after launch?
No. Maintenance is optional. If you want it, what it covers and what it costs are agreed in writing before it starts.
