what’s an ideal budget?
An average project cost would be $700-1000 for upkeep and maintenance services, however prices vary depending on the complexity of your needs – some people want more out of their website than others so there really isn’t an “ideal” budget answer unless you know how much time/money you’re willing to spend on designing and building a website.
The most important thing we recommend is getting an accurate quote from your web designer before you sign a contract so that there are no surprises later on.
What does the design process look like?
Your website project starts off with a call or meeting where we discuss what type of company/services you provide and how many services people can find on your site as well as which ones are most important for conversion purposes – this is when we’ll start to put together some rough ideas based on our discussion in order to get a better idea of what kind of content needs to be created, if any graphics will need to be made etcetera… Next we go back into brainstorming mode while putting together wireframes until it’s time to create the mockup(s) (typically one or two). Once we’ve come to a decision, it’s time for you to sign off on the mockup(s) before transferring them over into the CMS.
How long does this process usually take?
The length of project is going depend on how much content needs created or if there are any graphics that need made but in general (45) days would be an accurate estimate; however, some larger companies may have more complex websites and thus require up to (60) days worth of work.
What about maintenance services?
Most small businesses web designers offer upkeep and site management as part of their package which includes things like making sure your website stays updated with all relevant information, sending out newsletters each month etcetera… We can also add in customer contact forms, chat boxes and other features as well – it just really depends on what you want.

What should I know before choosing a small business web designer?
Be sure to ask them about their pricing structure, what tools they use and if or not they charge by project size.
You’ll also want to find out how many pages you’re website will have (usually this depends on the type of site) as well as whether or not there is any content creation involved since some companies offer both hosting and domain name services together.
Finally, be sure that your selected company offers maintenance plans for websites so that it stays updated with all relevant information – most do, but again, it just really depends on what you need/want from your website design service provider.
Do I need social media integration?
If you don’t have any social media integration then we recommend adding it in. It can be hard to stay afloat when your website isn’t being updated with all of the latest news and information, so most small businesses web designers offer a blog as well as an area for contact forms – this way people will see that your company is still relevant even if they’re not looking directly at your site.
How do I know which small business web designer is best?
It really depends on what type of needs you have but there are some general guidelines like asking them about their pricing structure, how many pages you’ll get and whether or not they charge by project size; however, it’s important to also listen to past customers (especially the ones who were happy with their service or not) to see what they liked and didn’t like about the company.
Next we go back into brainstorming mode while putting together wireframes until it’s time to create the mockup(s) (typically one or two). Once we’ve come to a decision, it’s time for you to sign off on the mockup(s) before transferring them over into the CMS.
How long does this process usually take?
The length of project is going depend on how much content needs created or if there are any graphics that need made but in general (45) days would be an accurate estimate; however, some larger companies may have more complex websites and thus require up to (60) days worth of work.
Why do I need a website when I promote my business on social media?
It’s important to have a website because social media only goes so far and people will have a hard time finding your business on search engines if you don’t have a website. This way your business will be findable to those who might not know about it but are looking for what they need and hopefully end up becoming loyal customers because of the convenience.
what is the difference between a freelancer and an agency?
Freelancer: the person is a self-employed individual and they work for themselves, while an agency usually employs people to do their design.
Agency: many companies hire employees on contract or full-time basis; this way you’ll have someone working in house rather than having it outsourced out.
What are some of the benefits and drawbacks of each?
Benefits: agencies may be able to handle more at one time which means faster service plus your website will always look professional (plus they’re often cheaper) since there are multiple designers available instead of just one freelancer – these teams can also help with content creation because not every company has writers that specialize in web writing. Drawbacks: independent workers tend to offer more personalized service.
What happens once we sign off on the mockup(s)?
Once we’ve come to an agreement about which mockups are best for your company’s website design then I’ll create these into CMS-ready templates so that they can go live immediately – this is because Google ranks websites higher in the search engine results pages if they have a website with up-to-date content.
Do I need a promo video to promote my small business?
If you’re looking to save time then yes, video is a great way to do so because it’s an effective branding tool and people are more likely to watch videos than read through paragraphs of text.
