Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a website build take?

Most projects are completed within 8-10 weeks, depending on the size and scope. You’ll receive a clear timeline at the start of the project, and we keep you informed at every step.

Do I need to provide the content or images?

No, we handle that for you. We write strategic, conversion-focused copy tailored to your business, and source curated stock images unless you have brand photography you’d like us to use.

Will I be able to update my website myself?

Yes. Your site is built on WordPress or Shopify with a user-friendly back-end. We also include a recorded walkthrough so you can make basic updates with confidence. Prefer we manage changes for you? Our maintenance plan includes one hour of hands-on support each month.

What if I need more than 10 pages?

No problem. We can quote for additional pages as part of your proposal—just let us know during the initial planning phase.

Is eCommerce included?

eCommerce functionality is available as an add-on via Shopify. We’ll design and structure your shop for SEO and conversions, and include the first few product uploads to get you started.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. We typically split the project into 2 or 3 milestones across the project timeline. We’re happy to tailor a plan that aligns with your budget and workflow.

What happens after launch?

We’ll walk you through the site during your final handover call (which is recorded for future reference). You’ll also receive a 3-month post-launch UX health check, where we review heatmaps and session data to remove any friction points and improve performance.

Can you host and maintain the site after it’s built?

Yes—we offer fully managed hosting and maintenance for $200/month, which includes speed optimisation, plugin updates, security, daily backups, and 1 hour of support or updates per month. You’re welcome to stay hands-off—we’ll handle everything.
