How long does a typical website project take?

What’s included in a website build?
Discovery & strategy, UX/UI, mobile-first dev, speed best practices, on-page SEO, forms with spam protection, analytics/conversions, and launch support. Hosting/maintenance available.
Do you offer hosting and ongoing maintenance?
Yes—secure hosting with backups, updates, uptime monitoring, and performance tuning. Maintenance covers CMS/plugin updates, minor fixes, and small content requests.
How does SEO work and when will I see results?
SEO improves technical health, content relevance, and authority. Expect early movement in 60–90 days, compounding at 4–6 months. We report on rankings, traffic, and conversions.
What’s the difference between SEO and Google Ads?
SEO builds long-term momentum; Google Ads delivers immediate visibility. Most clients win with both—Ads for quick wins, SEO for durable growth.
How do you structure and optimize Google Ads campaigns?
Tight theming, multiple ad variations, exact/phrase where useful, negatives, conversion tracking, and weekly optimization aligned to leads/calls/bookings.
Which social platforms do you advertise on?
Often Meta (Facebook/Instagram), LinkedIn, and TikTok. Platform choice depends on audience and offer. We handle creative, targeting, pixels, testing, and optimization.
What do you need from us to get started?
Brand assets, site/hosting access (if applicable), GA4/Tag Manager/Search Console, ad accounts, and approved content/images. We’ll help set up anything missing.
How much does a new website cost?
Scope determines price. Brochure sites are predictable; e-commerce/custom builds are higher. After a brief discovery call, we send a clear, fixed-scope proposal.
How do you measure success?
Qualified leads, calls, form fills, bookings, revenue (where available), and CPA. You’ll get monthly reports with plain-English insights and next steps.
Is there a contract or minimum commitment?
Web builds are fixed-scope. SEO/Ads: recommend 3 months to establish baselines, then month-to-month.
Can you work with our in-house team?
Yes—full team or specialized partner (design/dev, SEO, media buying). We integrate with your tools (Slack, Asana, Drive, etc.).
