Welcome to Kalamazoo Web Design! If you’re here, you’re likely considering us for your web design needs among a sea of options. Thank you! We understand that starting on a new project can be filled with questions and uncertainties.
To help you navigate this journey, we’ve put together some answers to frequently asked questions that potential clients often have, from specifics about our work process and timelines, to details about pricing and more.
Frequently Asked Questions
The cost varies depending on the complexity and functionality of the website. Pricing entails exactly what you need for your business – nothing more, nothing less. That’s why we provide a detailed quote after the initial consultation, outlining all costs associated with the project. One thing that sets us apart from others is that all of our websites include brand strategy and professional copywriting, because we KNOW it takes more than a “pretty” website to turn your visitor into a client! Our typical engagements are $2,750 to $7,500+, with most clients falling somewhere in the middle.
“The most expensive website is the one you have to build twice. Do it right the first time!”
At Kalamazoo Web Design, our primary focus is to help service-based businesses establish an authentic online presence, gain credibility, and attract their ideal clients. By providing you with a website that helps you connect with your customers on a deeper level, fostering trust and loyalty, it makes it easy for your potential client to take the next step with you.
Absolutely. We can assess your current website, identify areas for improvement, and redesign it to enhance its copy, appearance, and functionality.
Our typical flow…
- Initial consultation where we discuss your goals and vision for the website and how it can grow your business.
- Strategy session where we dig deep into your business, your passion, your ideal clients, their pain points, and more.
- Client interviews – we interview several of your clients directly. Trust us when we say the best content comes from those who use and trust your business. (This is an optional, but highly valuable, add-on service.)
- We create a mockup or wireframe of the site for your approval.
- Once the design is finalized, we move onto development, testing, and finally, launching the site.
SO glad you asked! This is one thing that sets us apart from other web designers. Your copy will be professionally written by us and will clearly speak to your target audience. We start with a strategy session to dig deep into your business, then we take it from there to create copy that hits pain points, offers your solution, and makes the potential client want to take the next step with you. Your copy is not about you! It’s about your visitor. We excel at writing copy that authentically represents you and your business along with building trust with your audience.
Your copy ultimately comes from our discovery session, client interviews, and what we know to work best for your audience. We will never plug content into a generator and place generic copy on your website. Though AI is definitely a great tool, your business is about building trust and gaining clients – and that comes from authentic copy, in your voice. Robots will not nail that like we will! 🙂
The timeframe varies depending on the complexity of the website. A basic website can take a few weeks, while a more complex site might take a few months. We’ll provide a timeline estimate during our initial consultation.
We offer expedited services for urgent projects. However, it’s important to remember that quality takes time. We’ll always strive to balance your timeline with delivering a website that meets our high standards.
CONTENT: We include content updates so you can be completely hands-off and know that your updates are made efficiently and correctly!
TECH: Your website will receive ongoing support and maintenance services to ensure everything runs smoothly. With our premium managed WordPress hosting and dedicated servers, we proactively take care of all software updates, security, bug fixes, and troubleshooting issues that may arise. This ongoing partnership helps you keep your website up-to-date, secure, and performing optimally.
As website strategists, we dig deep into your story, background, and what sets you apart, then create a website that resonates with your ideal client. With over 375 websites launched since 2008, we have a proven track record in helping service-based businesses to succeed. We will not give you a pretty site (with no strategy), hand over the keys, and then disappear. We believe you deserve a long-term partner that takes care of your website so you can take care of your clients.
