Question 1

How is a website project priced?

Accepted Answer

We price each project on its scope, not from a rate card. After a free 20-minute call, we send a written proposal with a fixed scope, timeline and price. The main factors are the number of page templates, content, integrations, catalogue size and how soon you need to launch.

Question 2

Do you charge for a quote?

Accepted Answer

No. The 20-minute call and the written proposal are free, and there's no obligation. If your project needs a paid discovery phase first, for example a complex web application, we'll say so up front and agree that scope separately before any work starts.

Question 3

Should I tell you my budget?

Accepted Answer

It helps. A budget range lets us suggest the right approach rather than the most expensive one. If you're not sure, tell us what you're trying to achieve and we'll explain the options and what drives cost, so you can decide with clear information.

Question 4

How do payments work?

Accepted Answer

Your proposal sets out the price, and each invoice shows when it's due, usually within 14 or 30 days. You get a perpetual licence to use everything we deliver once it's paid for in full. Hosting, email and WebCare™ are billed separately, each on its own terms.

Question 5

Who owns the code?

Accepted Answer

Once the project is paid for in full, you get a perpetual licence to use everything we deliver. If you need full ownership of the intellectual property, for example to sell the product later, we can agree a written assignment as part of your contract.

Question 6

Do you offer hosting and email?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer managed web hosting with HTTPS, caching, monitoring and backups, and business email on your own domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up properly. Both are optional. You can host elsewhere and still use our build and WebCare™ services.

Factor	Why it matters
Pages and templates	More unique layouts and templates take longer to design, build and test.
Content	Ready-to-use copy and images keep costs down. We can write or source them if needed.
Integrations	Payments, CRMs, booking and accounting systems each need building and testing.
Catalogue size	Large or complex product ranges need more structure and data work.
Accessibility and compliance	Specific standards or audits add testing time.
Timeline	A fixed early launch date may need more people at once.
