FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What do I need to get started?

First of all, don’t hesitate to send us a message.

Also, it will be much faster and easier for us to create valuable project for you if you already prepared:

• Clear understanding of purpose of your web project;
• Terms of reference / List of required pages and features;
• Content and graphics (Text, Images, Video);
• Brand identity elements (Logo, Color, Fonts);
• Examples of Competitors websites;
• Domain + Hosting.

Sure, we can help you figure all this out.

If you don’t have something done, you can fill our Extended Brief to make your own Terms of Reference. We can also design Brand identity for you, create custom detailed Project design prototype, conduct Competitors research and recommend suitable Domain + Hosting provider.

What should I choose: CMS or Custom solution?

We recommend using CMS in 95% cases.

Why? This way, you get the advantages of a completely own website, with a clear, time-tested structure, an understandable admin panel, excellent SEO, pleasant content and visual editing experience, a feature-powered core, good speed, and the flexibility needed for custom solutions.

In 2022, the WordPress content management system will be used by 43.3% of all sites on the web and 65% of all websites created with CMS. WordPress is a secure, fast, high-performance open-source core that significantly reduces development time and the cost of maintaining your project. It is supported by a community of thousands of developers from around the world and provides a high-quality end product.

If you want to sell a limited number of products, we still recommend using WooCommerce with WordPress. Of course, we can customize it completely according to your wishes and implement any desired functionality.

For e-commerce solutions focused on international sales of more than 1,000 items, we recommend customized solutions.

For web applications, one-page applications, and all other custom solutions, we use Laravel (PHP) or Node with Next (JS) + Vue, Angular, / React.

How long does development take?

It depends on the size of the project, the level of your preparation, and the technologies we choose.

In most cases, for small and medium-sized projects, the deadlines range from 2 weeks to 3 months—the time from the approval of the terms of reference and prepayment of the budget to full delivery.

2 weeks is a simple one-page site or landing without customized elements when you already have prepared content for the site.

3 months is a custom web app or large corporate site with creative design development, several customized solutions, and its own product catalog.

How much does site development cost?

It all depends on the size of your project, the level of customization, and the technologies we choose.

The development of a one-page site / landing page based on CMS without custom functionality with a modern template design, including 2 edits per review, will cost 200 euros.

A corporate website or media platform with up to 5 separate pages, a blog system, and extended functionality, including 5 edits per 2 reviews, will cost 1000 euros.

A full-fledged e-commerce solution with a blog, product catalog, user account, and advanced functionality, including 7 edits per 3 reviews, will cost 4000€.

A custom web app or website like the one you are on now, with a lot of self-developed solutions, a high-level complex design, and an improved user experience, costs 13000€.

What additional costs should I consider?

In addition to the development and configuration, you need to have a purchased domain and hosting to host your site, prepared content that you want to place on its pages, a logo and site icon, selected fonts and colors, and a prototype design.

The domain costs, on average, 10 euros per year.
Quality hosting can cost from 10 to 100 euros per month, depending on the complexity of your project and the level of planned load on the servers.

Developing an exclusive design with advanced analysis can cost from 3000€. Adaptation of modern template design to the specific needs of your company, from 300€.

A full-fledged corporate brand book with instructions and examples of use, which you can use for years for all future projects of the company, costs from 7000€.
Logo and icon design, from 750€.

You can prepare images and texts for the site on your own because you know better than anyone the specifics of your work and can prepare real, live photos.
Otherwise, analyzing and writing high-quality, unique SEO texts costs an average of 120 euros per 1,000 words. Content selection: ~ 35€ per hour of work.

By the way, after the publication, your site is just another new page on the Internet, but it is the face of your company in the digital world.

In order for other people to see your site, you need quality site optimization for search networks, paid advertising campaigns on search and social networks, and anonymous analysis of your users’ behavior to understand whether your site works the way you want.

What is already included in the cost of website development?

Every CMS site we develop always includes:
• setting up and preparing the domain and hosting;
• SSL security certificate configuration;
• CDN, basic image optimization and cache;
• improved security settings;
• SEO settings (Schema.org Markup and OpenGraph Meta Data generation);
• creating and setting up a contact form,
• configure SMTP email validation for your site;
• use of best practices and the latest adapted versions of technologies (HTML, CSS, PHP, JS, MySql, Litespeed, WP6, etc.)
• adherence to a single site style;
• perfect pixel-sensitive layout for mobile and desktop screens;
• development and publication of your site.

In our opinion, these are global standards that should be included in every new site created in 2022.

Of course, we do much more for our advanced collaboration plans, and the custom functionality of solutions is discussed individually.

Who will support my site after its publication?

You decide.

You have all the possibilities to support a website created with CMS by yourself. Or you can teach your employees to work with the content of your site.

You can also consult us if you need point support for the site. It costs 45 euros per hour.

And of course, you can order constant support for your web project from us. The cost depends on the amount of work and is discussed individually.
