Question 1

How much does a bespoke website cost?

Accepted Answer

I believe in transparency. My custom brochure websites typically start from £500. For more complex projects like E-commerce, Recruitment Portals, or Booking Systems, I offer a fixed-price quote after a quick discovery call. No hidden fees, no surprises.

Question 2

Do you charge monthly fees?

Accepted Answer

Unlike Wix or Yell, I do not charge mandatory monthly rental fees for the website itself. Once it is built, you own it. You only pay for hosting (approx £10-£20/year) and your domain name.

Question 3

Do you offer payment plans?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For larger projects (over £1,500), I typically split payment into milestones: 50% deposit to start, and 50% upon completion and launch.

Question 4

Why choose custom code (React/Next.js) over WordPress or Wix?

Accepted Answer

Speed and Google Rankings. Platforms like WordPress rely on heavy plugins that slow down your site and create security holes. I hand-code your site using Next.js (the same tech used by Netflix and TikTok), ensuring it loads instantly and ranks higher on Google.

Question 5

I have a Wix site. Can I move to you without losing SEO?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I specialise in Wix-to-Custom migrations. I perform a full SEO audit and set up '301 Redirects' for every single page, ensuring you keep your hard-earned Google rankings when we switch over.

Question 6

Will my website work on mobile phones?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. I design 'Mobile First.' Since over 70% of local searches happen on phones, I ensure your menus, buttons, and galleries work perfectly on iPhone and Android before we even look at the desktop version.

Question 7

Do you provide hosting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I use high-performance UK-based cloud hosting (like Vercel or Krystal). This ensures your data stays in the UK and your site loads fast for local customers.

Question 8

Where are you based? Can we meet in person?

Accepted Answer

I am based in New Eltham (SE9). I serve the entire South East London area including Sidcup, Bromley, Bexleyheath, and Orpington. I am happy to meet for a coffee to discuss your project face-to-face.

Question 9

Do you outsource your work overseas?

Accepted Answer

Never. I am a local freelance developer. Every line of code is written by me, here in London. You will never be passed to a support ticket system or a call centre.

Question 10

I've been ghosted by developers before. How are you different?

Accepted Answer

I live here. My reputation in the local community is my livelihood. I provide a direct WhatsApp line to all my clients, so you can reach me instantly if you have a question.

Question 11

My WordPress site has been hacked. Can you fix it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I offer an Emergency Rescue service. I can manually clean malware, patch security holes, and request a review from Google to remove the 'Dangerous' warning from your site.

Question 12

Do you offer website maintenance packages?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For business owners who want total peace of mind, I offer monthly maintenance plans that include daily backups, security scanning, and content updates.

Question 13

My site isn't showing up on Google. Can you help?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I offer a Technical SEO Audit. I look at your code, your sitemap, and your Google Search Console settings to find the technical errors preventing you from ranking.

Question 14

I'm a Roofer/Builder. Can I update my own gallery?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I build custom admin dashboards that let you upload 'Before & After' photos directly from your phone while you are on the job site. No technical skills required.

Question 15

Can you build a booking system for my Salon?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I can integrate automated booking systems that take deposits (to reduce no-shows) and sync directly with your Google Calendar.

Question 16

Do you build ordering systems for Restaurants?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I build commission-free ordering systems that let you take orders directly from your website, saving you the 30% fee charged by apps like UberEats or Deliveroo.

Question 17

I run a Recruitment Agency. Can you build a job board?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I build high-performance job boards with CV upload functionality and LinkedIn integration, helping you attract better candidates without relying on external platforms.

Question 18

Can you help with Google My Business (Maps)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For local trades, Google Maps is critical. I help verify your profile, optimise your categories, and set up review strategies to help you rank in the 'Map Pack'.
