General Service FAQs
We thoroughly review your request, respond with a detailed proposal that opens a communication channel to further discuss the project.
Payment is made before each phase begins. we will start working on your website after we have confirmation of phase 1 payment.
Paying by phases simply means that the project can be divided into multiple phases so that a $600 project can be paid 3 times ($200 for each phase) at different levels of completion.
Payment phases enables us to divide the project into milestones. For example, phase 1 can be setting up and defining the overall design (theme), defining color schemes and fonts and building the homepage and footer.
Phase 2 can be building the rest of the pages. Phase 3 can be optimizing the website for search engines (SEO), ensuring responsiveness and cross-browser compatibility, connecting domain and launching the website.
In this way, you only make payment for the second phase after you are 100% satisfied with the first phase.
Our clients love payment phases and so will you because if you don’t like the way the project is going, you can simply end it.
After we reach an agreement to start working on your project, you shall receive a phase 1 payment invoice via email with a link to make payment. W accept PayPal, stripe, MasterCard, visa and bank transfers.

Usually within 10-15 days, but it really depends on the size of the project which determines the level of work to be done.
Project revisions also plays a vital role on the speed of delivery. By project revisions we are referring to how fast you are able to respond to our questions/messages, review work progress and respond with comments and thoughts on the work done and the changes needed (if any).
We work very fast. You will have an update for first revision within 36-48 hours from time we are hired. Our proposal and quote will include an estimated completion period.
There are no refunds! We do not offer refunds because we bill by our time spent not the outcome of the work.
Most importantly, since you will get to make payments by phases, you can choose not to continue with the next phase and you won’t have to pay for that phase.

We are still working with clients from as far back as 13+ years ago. Some clients have left us with access to their website so that if or whenever they need something updated or modified, all they have to do is send us a message to take care of it for them.
Yes, we do these for most of our clients, particularly those who do not have sufficient (or any) images required for the website.
From understanding your contents and the message you are trying to convey, we are able to help you find the most suitable images for use on different parts of the website.
We usually begin with our choices of images and present them for you to see how they look on the pages and if there are images you do not like, we can try different options for you to see and compare. We also give you links to websites that you can search for and choose your preferred images for us to use as replacements.
Weebly Service FAQs
That’s what we do! When it comes to Weebly, we don’t just drag and drop elements into the default (basic) Weebly themes. We create custom professional theme that suits your website needs, that actually helps convey your message and appeals to your target audience.
Our clients scream with excitement when they see just how much potential their Weebly website had all along both in terms of appearance and functionality. That is why one of our clients in response to seeing their new website said “This is WHY you hire professionals“.
The best part of it is that while your website looks so much better and far beyond basic, the easy to use nature of Weebly (your ability to edit/update) is not compromised.
No! Your website contents are not lost or affected. Our work is centered around working with your existing contents (and any other contents you provide) to make the changes that you hired us for.
No! Your website will remain online and accessible to people as is until the new version is ready to go online.
In certain rare cases and depending on website needs, we may have to publish the changes as we make progress but your website will not be offline.
In most cases, we do our work behind the scenes without affecting the current look or structure of your website until the new version is ready to be published to the world.
Definitely! We can help backup your website and the theme prior to our work.
Although our work doesn’t eliminate any part of existing website contents, a number of our clients love the idea of having a backup in place because it gives them the extra peace of mind knowing that they have a backup of their current website before any major changes are made.
Definitely! All your design preferences such as colors, fonts, animations, etc. can be transferred into the new design and (updated if necessary) to work better and comply with the new design direction.
No. Apps and other website tools/features you have will not be affected. They can be redesigned and styled to flow with the new design.
No, we don’t. Weebly has editor access option which allows you to give restricted access to people (such as website designers) to work on your website without you having to share your login details.
The editor access restricts us to your website editor and very selective dashboard options, we won’t have access to your Weebly account information.
Of course! This is an approach that we have used with a number of our clients and it leads to 100% success. You don’t need to have all the contents in place before embarking on a new website project or revamping an existing website.
While you are working on the remaining or additional contents, we can begin with available contents to create the overall design, create pages and page layouts, use available contents to build their respective pages and add more contents as they become available.
Definitely! If you are already using Weebly then you know how easy it is to build and manage a website with Weebly. After our work you will continue to easily build and manage that website the same way you had been doing prior to our work.
We only put in a solid design foundation that ensures that your website looks great and works better without compromising or altering the easy to use nature of Weebly which is its core selling point. It’s very important to use that our clients are able to manage and update their website effortlessly.
You won’t run into any difficulties with editing your website because we keep everything very easy so that you only drag and drop elements to add contents, click to edit texts, click to set color, alignment, size, etc.
You won’t have any business going into the code, we do all the coding and other complicated stuffs so that you never have to.
