FAQ
Common Questions
Everything you need to know before getting started. Don't see your question? Just reach out — we're always happy to chat.
Yes — 100%. When your website is complete, it's yours. You own the domain, the design, the code, and all the content. We believe that once you've paid for something, it belongs to you — no strings attached, no lock-in, no nonsense. If you ever decide to move to a different host or work with a different team in the future, we'll make that transition as smooth as possible.
Yes! We offer optional hosting and ongoing maintenance plans so your site stays fast, secure, and up to date after launch. Our maintenance packages include regular software updates, security monitoring, backups, and performance checks. You're never required to use our hosting — but most clients find it convenient to keep everything under one roof with a team that already knows their site inside and out.
Every project is different, so we don't believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. A simple 5-page site for a local Cleveland business will cost significantly less than a full e-commerce build with custom integrations. What we can promise is transparent, upfront pricing — no surprise invoices, no hidden fees. We'll give you a detailed quote after our free discovery call once we understand exactly what you need. Reach out and let's talk.
Our process has four clear stages: (1) Discovery — we meet with you to learn about your business, goals, competitors, and audience. (2) Strategy & Design — we build a custom design and content plan tailored to your brand. (3) Build & Optimize — we develop the site with SEO built in from the very first line of code, then review it with you. (4) Launch & Grow — we go live together and provide training so you feel confident using your new site. We keep you in the loop at every step.
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization — it's the practice of making your website rank higher on Google and other search engines so more people find you organically (without paying for ads). Good SEO means the right people find your site when they search for products or services you offer in Cleveland and Northeast Ohio. We focus on both technical SEO (site speed, structure, code quality) and local SEO (helping your business appear in "near me" searches in the Cleveland area and beyond).
Absolutely. A great website is just the starting point. We also offer ongoing SEO management, Google Ads campaigns, social media advertising, email marketing, content strategy, and monthly analytics reporting. Think of us as your full digital marketing partner — not just a one-time web shop. Many of our Cleveland clients start with a new site and then work with us on a monthly retainer to keep growing their online presence.
