Frequently Asked Questions
Self-hosting your WordPress site means downloading your copy of the WordPress content management system (CMS), finding a domain provider, and signing up for a hosting service to host your site on the Internet. Read more here.

Yes, I have created e-commerce websites on Big Cartel and Shopify. I will always prefer WordPress but I also understand some clients would rather use a different website platform. Please get in touch if you would like assistance with creating a website on another platform.
The price of a website depends on the complexity of the design, functions and features, content, and the total time to create the website.
My website build or redesign are affordable to give new and existing business owners an opportunity to establish an online presence. With that in mind, I price between $750 and $3,000 per website on average. This price range is not a quote and it does not include the cost to purchase a domain and hosting service. An additional fee may be applied for expedited requests. I’ll send a final proposal and quote after I have a full understanding of your request.

The average turnaround time to complete a website from start to finish is between two to four weeks for small projects and up to four to eight weeks for medium to large projects.
The project timeline depends on the size (number of pages), features that require customization and/or automation, and migration of content or products from a previous site. Prompt responsiveness from the client to provide content delivery and verification will factor into the completion time of the project as well.
I work on one website project at a time. That means your website is my number one priority until it is complete to your satisfaction.
I can create a standard logo; however, I am not a graphic designer. If you need a custom-made logo or want custom graphics for your website, I recommend visiting Etsy or Fiverr to hire a talented and affordable graphic designer. I can also give you a recommendation for a graphic designer.
Your high-resolution logo/graphic design package should include the following file formats: Bitmap/Raster (JPG, PNG, GIF, TIFF) and Vector (PDF, EPS, AI, SVF, CDR). Bitmap files are used for photos, graphics, small animation, etc. Vector files are for high-quality printing on items (print-on-demand).
Please make sure that your logo and other graphics are available at the start of the project so there will not be any delays. Typically, the logo will drive the color palette of your website design.
Yes. I encourage clients to learn WordPress and get comfortable using it to make their own updates. If you can use Microsoft Word, you can use WordPress. I’ll show you how. I include basic training on WordPress with the quote.
Website Maintenance & Support and Training
As a client, our relationship will not end with the website build. I am here to serve you for the long haul by offering a website maintenance and support plan.
Extended WordPress training is available for those who want to manage their website on their own.
If you already have a WordPress website and would like to hire me for either of these services, please send me a direct message.

Once you confirm the proposal and project acceptance, I will send a PayPal invoice via email. I do not accept any other forms of payment. Website design requires a 50% deposit to start the project and 50% is due after approval.
I hope your experience working with me will be a pleasant one and most of all professional.
My process for creating a website is informal. It takes a little time and patience to create a website to get it right for the client. I am always in a state of learning while building a website. That makes the process enjoyable for me. I hope that you feel that positive energy from me during our collaboration.
Above all else, I offer my clients a personal service that I enjoy providing. My purpose is to collaborate and share information with my clients that will benefit their websites and business. I invite you to speak to any of my clients listed on the Work page.
If you’re ready to start a website project, complete and submit the questionnaire. I will respond within 24 hours.
1. Schedule a call
After I receive your completed discovery questionnaire, I will be in contact within 24 hours to schedule an introduction call to discuss your project.
2. Introduction Call
During the introduction call, you can share what you want your website to look like and the functionality you want it to have. We’ll review your answers to the questionnaire as well as discuss your business, your customers, and how to best serve them with your website.
3. Project Acceptance
Following the introduction call, I will send you the proposal. The proposal will include a summary of your request and my recommendations; a list of deliverables, and the project timeline from start to finish. When you’re ready to move forward, you’ll approve the proposal by signing the project acceptance. Then pay the deposit invoice and work on your website project will begin.
4. Onboarding & Gather Requirements
I will create a project folder on Google Drive and grant you access. There you will complete the content questionnaire to complete the website requirements and upload your logos, images, credentials, etc.
5. Review & Feedback
After I create a solid preview, I will send you an email and instructions to review the website in test mode. After your review, you will give your feedback and comments. We will continue this process until all requirements are met.
6. Project Closeout
When all requirements are met, I’ll complete a final overview to make sure there are no mistakes or typos. Test all forms, integrations, and automation to make sure everything is working as it should. After your final approval, I’ll send over the project closeout document and the final invoice for payment.
7. Launch – Your website will go live!
Maintenance & Support
As a client, our relationship does not end with the website launch. With a maintenance and support plan, I will monitor your website on a daily basis and keep it performing, so you can fully focus on what matters – managing and growing your business.
The maintenance and support plan is available on an ad hoc basis, monthly, or annually.
Training
WordPress training is available to learn how to update and maintain your website on your own. I will give you lessons on managing your new business website from the WordPress dashboard plus an overview of how your web hosting works.
WordPress training is available to site owners and their staff that are responsible for managing the site.
