FAQs
Why do website quotes vary so much?
Because scope, design effort, features, speed work and support differ. A low price often leaves out SEO, performance or after-launch support.
Are monthly costs mandatory?
You always pay for hosting and a domain. Maintenance and support are optional but recommended for security and updates.
How long does it take to build a website?
A business website usually takes 3 to 6 weeks. E-commerce and apps take longer, depending on scope.
