Small Business Websites

It takes on average around 3 weeks from the start of a small business website until the launch of the finished product. The progress and timeframe depends on various factors, like how long our backlog is, if we have to wait for information from our customers needed to proceed, etc.

Once we have your input and all information from your side, we are usually able to finish the website within 3 weeks, sometimes also faster.

Our special offer of $500 + GST includes all costs for the creation and design of your website, plus ongoing costs for the first year.

After the first year, the ongoing costs are the annual renewal fee of the domain name you have chosen (see domain price list here) and the monthly fee for the web hosting (see web hosting prices here).

One email address is included with your domain name and will remain free as long as your domain is registered with us. Optional additional email addresses for colleagues, employees or other purposes come with an additional monthly fee depending on the mailbox size (see mailbox prices here).

The initial website has been paid for and no additional costs occur for it. You will have full control of your website and can take care of any changes yourself. If you want to make changes to your website and prefer that one of our web designers takes care of that, we will charge an hourly rate of $80.

Quotes are free and non-binding, feel free to contact us at any time.

The licenses for purchased images and photos are owned by the entity or person who acquires them. If we develop your website and use photos we purchased, we are in a weird legal situation in which you buy a site of which you don’t own the photos.

In case you decide to move your domain or website away from Moreweb, we wouldn't be able to prevent you from using those photos. To avoid copyright conflicts, customers are best to acquire and own the licences themselves.

Note: You should always ensure you have the rights to any images you use. You cannot use images found on search engines such as Google unless they have been purchased or are license free, this could result in legal complications for you. There are many websites that provide beautiful license free images check out our blog post on getting your hands on images for your website.

Of course you can. There are many do it yourself website builders and website building kits out there. Most of which can also be used by non technical people. The question is how much your time is worth to you. Is building a website yourself really the best you can do with your time?

Or instead, would it be financially more viable and profitable for you to develop your brand, work on your business plan, focus on your marketing, find new customers instead or even take care of your existing ones? In case you have never built a website and you are not sure about the best way to structure it and setup the pages and content, it might make more sense to let us take care of the technical when, how, what and where.

If you want to built your website yourself, have a look at our Unlimited Web Hosting and Managed Wordpress products.

After choosing a memorable domain name with the most appropriate extension, what else is left? It depends on the purpose of your website. Based on what you want to achieve, research and preparation are primary. Your target audience, your competitors, your mission; all need to be checked out.

Interesting and relevant content is essential. Explain your products and how they’ll benefit your customers. Happy customers keep coming back. Don´t forget, whatever makes the users happy also keeps Google happy, and this will have a positive effect on your ranking.

If you sell products on your website and you accept credit card payment, for the sake of your customers you must use an SSL certificate on your site. An SSL certificate secures all your online communication and transactions with your customers. Protecting you and your customers. Without the protection of an SSL certificate your site is vulnerable to phishing attacks and your customers’ personal information is not safe.

In short, we can help you with as much or as little assistance as you require. In detail, we can help you with, the initial keyword research, marketing strategy, creating the logo, finding the best domain names and securing them, designing the website, ongoing website SEO (though we think the best way is to provide good service and create high quality content on an ongoing basis) and even brand protection, securing your intellectual property online.

Or you can do all of the above yourself and let us only help when you actually need it. It is really up to you.
