Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take to build my website?

Most SMB sites launch in 4–8 weeks (discovery, design, development, content, QA). Rush options are available for tighter scopes.

Do I need a custom site or can I use a template?

Custom wins in NYC’s crowded market—better differentiation, faster pages, higher conversion. Templates fit MVPs but limit growth.

Will my website be mobile-friendly?

Yes. Every build is mobile-first and optimized for Core Web Vitals across phones, tablets, and desktops.

Can I update content myself?

Absolutely. You’ll get WordPress with training to edit pages, images, and posts without technical help.

How does the site bring me more customers?

By combining local SEO, fast UX, persuasive copy, trust signals (reviews, guarantees), and clear CTAs tied to analytics goals.
