FAQ

Common Questions

How much does a custom website cost for a small business?

My projects start around $1,500 for a clean, professional small business website. Pricing scales based on page count, custom features, and complexity. Every project gets the same quality code and mobile-first design. I also offer monthly payment plans so you can spread the cost over time.

Unlike template-based shops that charge similar prices for cookie-cutter results, every site I build is designed and coded from scratch. You are paying for a website that is built specifically for your business and optimized to generate leads.

How long does it take to build a website?

It depends on the package:

  • Signal: live in about 2 weeks
  • Broadcast: 4 to 6 weeks
  • Amplify: 6 to 8 weeks

These timelines assume content (text, photos, logos) comes in on time. You see the site on a private staging link while it is being built, and I keep you updated the whole way.

Will my site work on phones and tablets?

Every site I build is mobile-first, meaning I design for phones first and scale up to tablets and desktops. Over 60% of web traffic comes from mobile devices, so this is not optional. Your site will look and function perfectly on every screen size.

I test across real devices during development, not just browser simulators. Touch targets, font sizes, navigation, and forms are all optimized for the way people actually use their phones.

Will my website show up on Google?

Yes. Every site I build includes on-page SEO fundamentals: proper heading structure, meta descriptions, image optimization, XML sitemaps, and structured data markup. I also submit your site to Google Search Console and configure indexing so Google knows your site exists from day one.

SEO is not an add-on. It is built into every page I create. That said, ranking on the first page takes time and ongoing effort, especially in competitive markets.

Can I update the website myself after it launches?

Yes. ProcessWire has one of the most intuitive admin panels of any CMS. You can update text, swap images, add new pages, and manage your content without any technical knowledge. I provide a walkthrough after launch so you feel confident making changes on your own.

Unlike WordPress where you need to navigate a maze of plugins and settings, ProcessWire gives you a clean, organized admin that shows only what you need. It is built for business owners, not developers.
