Which platforms do you build on?
WordPress, Squarespace or Shopify if you want to edit the site yourself, with Shopify for online shops. Or a custom build in standard code, for teams with a developer or clients on support. If your organisation prefers another platform, that works too.
Will I be able to edit the site myself?
On a platform build, yes. Editing training is part of every build, and you get a written guide for everyday changes. A custom build needs someone technical for changes, which is why it suits teams with a developer.
What if I choose a custom build and have no developer?
You can book support hours for changes, or hand the documentation to any developer you choose. Support is never a condition.
Can you build an online shop?
Yes, on Shopify. It is set up in your own Shopify account, so the shop, the products and the customer data are yours.
Who owns the domain and hosting?
You do. Both are set up in your name and your account from the start, whichever way the site is built.
How much does a website cost?
There are no fixed prices, because every project is different and you should only pay for what you need. A website build is billed on the hours it takes, and you get a clear estimate before any work starts.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can have?
No. Your site has as many pages as your business needs, and the estimate reflects the work involved. After launch you can add pages whenever you like, yourself on a platform build or through your developer or support hours on a custom build, with no per-page fees.
Will my website work on phones and meet the rules?
Yes. Every site is designed to work on phones, tablets and laptops, and built to be accessible, with readable text and colours, keyboard access and screen reader support. It is also set up to meet UK GDPR and cookie rules, with a privacy policy page and a cookie banner that asks before any tracking starts.
