Web Design FAQ

Common questions about working with me.

How much does a small business website cost?
Website plans start at $500/year, which includes the custom build, hosting, SSL, and analytics. Most small businesses pay $500-$1,000/year depending on complexity. No huge upfront costs or surprise fees.
What's included in website management?
All plans include hosting, SSL certificates, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity heatmaps, security updates, and uptime monitoring. Your site stays fast, secure, and online.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most websites are ready for review within 5-7 business days depending on the request. I build it first, you review it, request changes, and only pay when you're happy.
Why Next.js instead of WordPress or Wix?
Next.js sites load in under 2 seconds (WordPress/Wix often take 4-8 seconds). Faster sites rank better on Google and convert more visitors. Plus no plugin vulnerabilities, no bloat, and 90+ Lighthouse performance scores.
What if I need SEO too?
Your website comes SEO-ready with proper structure, meta tags, and schema markup. If you want active ranking work - Google Search Console, monthly reports, competitor analysis - add an SEO package starting at $100/month.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. If you're on an annual plan, I'll refund the prorated amount for the remaining months.
Can I make changes to my website myself?
All plans include monthly content changes handled by me - you just send a text or email with what you need. If you want to edit content yourself, I can set up a simple CMS. Most clients prefer to just message me since it's faster.
What if I already have a website?
I can rebuild it from scratch with better performance and SEO, or I can optimize your existing site if it makes sense. We'll look at what you have and figure out the best path forward.
Do you build e-commerce websites?
I focus on service businesses - contractors, roofers, landscapers, etc. For simple product sales, I can integrate with Stripe or Square. For full e-commerce with inventory management, Shopify is usually a better fit.
What happens if my website goes down?
All sites include uptime monitoring. If something breaks, I get alerted automatically and fix it - usually before you even notice. If you do notice an issue, just text me directly and I'll handle it.
