  • 4) Review + revisions — You review on desktop and mobile, we adjust, and we test links, forms, and responsiveness.
  • 5) Launch + support — We launch cleanly, then we can stay on for updates, fixes, and ongoing improvements.

FAQ

Quick answers to common questions we get from Bloomington and Southern Indiana small businesses.

How much does a small business website usually cost?

It depends on scope. A basic small business site is usually a few key pages, strong mobile layout, and clear calls to action. If you already have a site, we can also quote improvements only (speed, SEO foundations, content, fixes).

How long does it take?

Most projects move fastest when the core content is ready (services, hours, contact info, photos). Simple sites can move quickly; bigger builds and custom features take longer. We’ll give you a clear timeline up front.

Can you work with Squarespace or WordPress, or do you only do custom code?

Both. We do clean custom builds and also support platforms like Squarespace and WordPress, depending on what makes sense for your business and your budget.

Do you provide hosting and domain help?

Yes. We can help with hosting setup, domain renewals, DNS, email setup, and keeping everything stable over time.

Will this help SEO?

We build pages with a strong foundation (headings, internal links, clean titles and descriptions, mobile usability, fast load time). Ranking also depends on competition and ongoing content, but a solid foundation is required for long-term results.

Do you offer monthly maintenance?

Yes. Many clients prefer ongoing support so updates, fixes, and small improvements don’t pile up. Retainers are available for maintenance and ongoing marketing or SEO-focused updates.

What do you need from me to get started?

A link to your current site (if you have one), the services you offer, your service area, and any examples of websites you like. If you have brand colors, a logo, and photos, that helps too.
