Frequently asked questions
What software do you use to build websites and blogs?
I only ever use WordPress.
How long does it take to complete the work?
The only answer to this question is ‘it depends’. There are lots of factors at play, which include the size of the site, creating the content, creating or finding appropriate images and videos and your level of cooperation when it comes to supplying the things I need to complete the job. Building the site is usually a fairly quick process, it’s the collecting of materials that can take a while.
Are there likely to be any additional or ongoing costs?
There definitely will be for your domain name and hosting. And I always recommend taking out a monthly maintenance plan which covers backing up your site and keeping all the software up to date. This ensures the site works to its full potential and reduces the chances of it getting hacked. There may also be annual renewal costs for plugins – but they wouldn’t come as a surprise as we’d talk about them during the build and development process. I’d only use them if you agree.
What are the terms regarding payment?
I won’t start work until you’ve paid a 50% deposit. Depending on the size of the project, there may be incremental payments when certain pre-agreed milestones are reached. The final payment becomes due just before launch and when you’re happy with everything. All the details will be laid out in writing beforehand.
Can you help with hosting?
I can help with hosting. I don’t provide hosting as a service but I’m more than happy to take care of setting it up with my preferred provider. That’s a company called Guru.
To do the work, what do you need from me?
Unless agreed otherwise, you’ll need to provide all the written content, images and videos for your site. However, I can source or create these materials for you. This is something we’d discuss during our discovery call(s).
