HOW MUCH DOES A WEBSITE COST?

This also depends on the complexity of the website, as well as how quickly the client is able to provide content and make decisions. A simple website can be built in a matter of weeks, while a more complex site can take several months. We always tell customers to give a minimum of 6–8 weeks when booking a website project.

WILL MY WEBSITE BE MOBILE-FRIENDLY?

This should be a given for most website designers, as the majority of internet traffic now comes from mobile devices. A good designer will make sure your website is fully responsive and works well on all devices.

CAN YOU HELP ME WITH SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMISATION (SEO)?

We can help with the technical aspects of SEO, such as creating a sitemap (automatically created on Squarepsace for you!) and properly formatting the site's code and content. However, we recommend working with one of our trusted experts on the strategic side of SEO, such as keyword research and link building.

CAN YOU HELP ME WITH WEBSITE MAINTENANCE AND UPDATES?

Of course! We offer both ongoing maintenance and update services, and also a handover after the build so if you wanted to make any changes/updates yourself, you can! At Soley Creative we offer retainers where you can get design work on a monthly basis, with website maintenance as an option! Check out our post on retainers here: Read Now
