How long will it take from kickoff to launch, and what can speed up or slow down the timeline?
A typical delivery target is 8 weeks from kickoff to launch, subject to content readiness and feedback cadence. The package includes up to eight Zoom consultations to keep decisions moving and reduce bottlenecks. Timelines are accelerated or delayed by client approvals, content availability, and change requests.
What’s included in the package?
Core inclusions are 20 flex pages, CMS with editor, SEO‑optimized pages, brand guideline, cross‑browser compatibility, forms with reCAPTCHA, information architecture, legal section, social integration, SSL, testing, UX/UI, a video background, and AWS hosting. Google Fonts and structured consultations are included to ensure consistent design and efficient collaboration.
Which platform or CMS is best for my business?
Platform choice is guided by business goals, content workflows, required integrations, and long‑term maintainability established during discovery rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all CMS. This approach aligns editorial ownership and budget with the right technology to reduce rework over time.
Will the site be mobile‑friendly and fast, and how are Core Web Vitals handled?
Projects emphasize responsive UX and performance fundamentals, limiting heavy assets and prioritizing efficient rendering for mobile. Structured QA and iterative improvements help maintain stability and speed across devices and browsers.
How do you handle local SEO for Fort Worth and Google Maps?
Local SEO is addressed via on‑page optimization, service‑area and location content, and alignment with Google Business Profile for Fort Worth visibility. A structured site architecture supports targeted pages for neighborhoods and nearby DFW markets.
What is your process and how many revisions are included?
Engagements follow discovery, UX/UI design, development, QA, and launch with scheduled reviews to minimize late surprises. Collaboration is supported by up to eight Zoom consultations and clear checkpoints for feedback and approvals.
Who owns the website and what about hosting and maintenance?
Ownership and handoff expectations are defined at project close, with AWS hosting and SSL included in the package and optional yearly hosting available. Ongoing maintenance and support can be added to handle updates, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
Do you have local case studies and references?
The portfolio highlights regional work across real estate, construction, roofing, hospitality, nonprofit, and services with examples and outcomes. External recognition includes inclusion in a 2025 Fort Worth web design roundup that supports market credibility.
How is performance measured after launch?
Success is monitored through defined KPIs, analytics tracking, and a reporting cadence aligned to traffic, leads, and conversion goals. Continuous optimization plans can be scoped post‑launch to iterate on UX, content, and technical SEO as data accumulates.
