WordPress Website FAQ
Why WordPress Website FAQ? Having taken clients through all forms of advertising and media over the years most of our marketing efforts now begin online. The first stage is to make sure your brand is set and ready to display and communicate on all media. From here on its all about your digital presence and quite frankly we find WordPress to be the best place to start, grow and develop. While not all related to the CMS these are our most Frequently Asked Questions.
Can we have a meeting in person?
I would like a website, but first, can you design me a logo?
How long does a website take to make?
What is a CMS. What is a WordPress?
Do you build sites on other CMS’s?
No. While we have built sites using .NET, my preference is to build websites on WordPress. I can create designs for any platform.
What do you charge per hour?
For small or ad-hoc jobs, yes, however, we prefer to give fixed estimates for websites. If you require additional deliverables or time spent beyond the scope listed in your proposal, we may negotiate with you to charge additional services at an hourly rate. we have a fee schedule that is disclosed to clients when they are making genuine inquiries.
We have recently introduced a daily and weekly fee which allows me to block out dedicated time for certain projects. This is subject to my current schedules and availability. But it means, if you want me to work on your site for a predictable cost, this might be an option.
We pride ourselves on having long term relationships. This allows for a discovery period and room to move on providing a service and budget that is best suited to all parties. The priority is having a partnership to deliver results for your business or new venture.
How much does a website cost?
Why do you need a 50% deposit?
Can you fix/design/edit my WordPress.com or Blogger site?
Nope. But I’d be happy to get you started on a self-hosted WordPress site.
Why can’t I use images I found on google or other’s websites?
Stealing is wrong. Copyright infringement is a serious issue in this industry and applies to any tool or resource license you will require. We also insist that you know where your imagery came from. That is, you took it yourself, someone else took it and you’re allowed to use it, you bought it from a stock supplier or know for a fact that you are entitled to use it. Using images lifted straight from Google on commercial sites is not ok. I’ve been fighting this battle for years. There are many awesome suppliers of creative images out there, and many more talented photographers.

Images on todays visually social platforms are more important than ever.
