Questions

Small business website FAQs.

Do you use templates?

No. Every site is designed around your business. We build on WordPress or as a simple one-page site, depending on how much you want to edit yourself.

Can I edit the site myself?

Yes. WordPress sites come with a training session, and you can change text and photos whenever you like.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

Not if the move is handled properly. We map every old address to its new page with redirects, as we did 13 out of 13 for My Dog’s Trainer.

Do you write the words?

We can. Copywriting for the main pages is included in the WordPress package; extra pages are £300 each.
