FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I Need A Website, Can You Help?
Yes, we specialize in websites. If you need a website we would love to help!
How Much Does Building A Website Cost?
Websites range in price depending on multiple factors including what functionality it needs. Please, let us know what your budget is, and we will let you know what we can and cannot do.
Why Could I Not Just Use Wix Or Squarespace To Build My Site?
You can, a lot of people do and are very happy. For us it is the difference between renting vs owning your website. With Wix and Squarespace you rent the site and pay every month. If you stop paying or they decide they do not like your website content, they have the right to remove it. When you build a custom website, you own it.
What Is The Average Timeframe To Design And Build A Website?
The cost varies based on how complex the website is and how much content and media we need to create. The average completed time for a basic website is around six weeks. We do offer an option for a shorter timeframe.
What About A Domain Name?
If you do not have a domain name, we can help you purchase one. Please understand that we will not purchase a domain name for you. There are too many stories of people trying to get access to their domain names, because they had someone else purchase it for them. It is extremely important to us that you purchase the domain name and own it.
Could You Explain The Terms 'Mobile Friendly' And 'Responsive'?
Both terms refer to the same thing. ‘Responsive’ means the website responds and adapts to whatever screen size the website loads on to provide the user with a good viewing experience. Google now penalizes websites that are not mobile friendly, so it is especially important that your website is responsive. Every website we build will be fully responsive and mobile friendly on current tablets and mobile phones.
What Is A CMS Or Content Management System?
We build all our client websites with WordPress – a content management system. A CMS give you the ability to login with just a web browser and easily update your website without having to worry about learning any code. It is important that you have control and the ability to update things yourself and that you are not being held hostage or hindered from making updates to your website.
How About ECommerce "Online Store" Or Membership Websites?
We have built multiple websites in both areas and would love to help you build yours.
Do You Provide Training?
Yes, we provide training on how to maintain the website as well as make content updates.
What Is Web Hosting?
Web hosting is a service to make your website accessible on the internet. When you type a domain name in like realbrandmedia.com that domain is pointing at a web hosting server. We can provide web hosting for you or recommend a company we trust as well.
Who Is Responsible For All The Website Content?
You would be responsible for all of the website content and photography, however, similar to designing a logo we can recommend a great copy writer to help if you do not want to take care of the content creation process within house. Same goes for the photography on the site, we are happy to provide that service if needed.
What Happens After The Website Is Launched And I Need Help?
We would never hand over a website and disappear on you! We offer website maintenance plans that include a long list of items including daily website backups, software updates, malware/hack protection, disaster recovery, uptime monitoring and website analytics.
