Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a website take to build?

A full custom website typically takes 2 to 4 weeks from strategy session to launch. Timeline depends on scope and how quickly you provide content, feedback, and approvals. Faster responders get faster launches.

Do I own my website after it is built?

Yes, 100%. You own the domain, the hosting account, the code, and all brand assets. We hand everything over at launch with full admin credentials. No vendor lock-in, no ongoing dependency on us unless you choose a maintenance retainer.

What if I need changes after launch?

We offer ongoing maintenance and support packages that cover content updates, security patches, and performance improvements. Maintenance starts from R2,000 per month. You can also self-manage using the dashboard we train you on at handover.

Do you use templates or build from scratch?

Every site we build is 100% custom. No templates, no drag-and-drop builders, no cookie-cutter themes. Your site is designed to match your specific brand, audience, and conversion goals.

Is the website mobile-friendly?

Yes, every site is built mobile-first and fully responsive. Over 70% of South African web traffic is mobile, so we design for phones before desktop. Core Web Vitals are tuned for mobile performance.

Can you help with SEO after launch?

Yes. Every site ships with on-page SEO, schema markup, and Google Business Profile optimisation included. For ongoing ranking work we offer SEO retainers from R3,500 per month with no lock-in contracts. See our SEO services page for retainer scope and timelines.

Do you build e-commerce sites?

Yes. We build Shopify, WooCommerce, and custom e-commerce stores. E-commerce projects start at R14,900 for Shopify setup with custom theming, and go up for complex catalogues, payment gateway work, or inventory integration.
