Frequently Asked Questions

If you're looking to further your understanding of what CreativD-Sign have to offer - you'll find answers here! We cover many of the common questions that clients have asked us about website design. We tried to cover a lot of basics with this FAQs but feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions.

  • Why is a website so important if my business is already doing well?
    We bet that if you've landed on this page, you already know your answer to this question. Although each particular business has a different reason for wanting a website, what's true for all is that a website is a business's home, online. Not only designed to be beautiful, an impactful website should bring your offline experience online and optimize your business's success. For some, this means attracting more clients; for others, it means making use of powerful features and pages that automate tasks and make life easier.
  • I'm interested in having you design / redesign a site, where do I start?"
    The first thing we need to know is a basic, high-level framework that you need for your site. This framework includes: Types and number of pages. Possible design idea or links to inspirational sites (unless you're open to our design creativity). Specific needs you have such as a blog, store, online booking, or member area, for example. What action you want site visitors to take on your site. Maybe your site is an informational-only site, or maybe you want them to complete an online form, purchase a program/product, or sign up for a class or event. Once we get an idea of what you need, we can then ask more specific questions to help narrow things down. Bottom line, we want to be able to picture in our minds exactly what we're building for you. Even though the exact layout and design are yet to be determined, we want to be 100% sure we can deliver what you need in order to provide a quote. That being said, if we cannot deliver what you need for your site, we will be upfront and inform you immediately so you may continue moving ahead with the best web designer for your needs.

  • How long does it take to design a website?
    The time it takes to design a website can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the project, the scope of work, and the availability of the client to provide feedback and content. For a simple brochure website with a few pages, it could take a few weeks to a month to complete the design process. However, for a more complex website with custom functionality, such as an e-commerce site, it could take several months to design and develop. It's also important to note that the timeline can be affected by factors outside of the designer's control, such as delays in getting content from the client, unexpected design changes, or technical issues that need to be resolved. To get a better estimate of how long it would take to design your specific website, it's best to set up a quick phone call or fill out our contact form to share your project's details and requirements. If a rush job is required, this will be taken into account during the quoting process. *NOTE: If you do need a thight turn-around, a rush fee that pushes you to the front of queue can be added to your quote for an additional $ 250.
  • Will my website work on smart phones and tablets as well?
    Yes, more and more people are accessing the website on smart phones or tablets also. If your website is not responsive for smart phones and for tablets then you are losing such huge audience. It means mobile responsive website is very essential these days. And we understand this need, that is why every website which we build or design is mobile responsive.
  • Why Wix platform for client websites?
    Wix is more than just a web building platform. It is a platform that integrates multiple tasks within one Dashboard. Everything from customer contact, email marketing, automations, social media post, advertising, and analytics. This is all included within the price paid for hosting depending on the plan purchased by the client. We can help you decide which hosting plan is appropriate for your need. There are many business solutions available for use with Wix. E-Commerce Events Blogs Forums Restaurants Music Video Online Programs and more. Most importantly security. As mentioned previously the security of your website and content is critical when operating online and through the internet.
  • Do you only work with Wix?
    It's very important to us to be highly niched and as proficient as possible when working with our clients. Although we have worked on other platforms in the past, we have found that narrowing our focus to only the Wix platform allows us to stay more creative while spending less time troubleshooting or switching gears between how a platform works. Staying 100% engaged with the Wix platform provides us more time and creative energy to design a stellar site that exceeds your expectations.
  • I need a redesign, but my website is already live...how will you redesign my site without everyone seeing it?"
    We handle redesigns in two different ways, and it depends on how you prefer to move forward. We redesign the site on your current, live site. We build hidden pages that are unseen from the live site. We provide links to view the newly designed pages and once the framework, design, revisions, and edits are complete and you give the go-ahead, we then transition the pages to live and hide the old pages. We redesign on a new site OR a duplicated version of your site. Once the framework, design, revisions, and edits are complete, we then transfer your Wix premium plan and domain to the new site. There is no right or wrong path, but usually boils down to a matter of preference to the client and based on a client's payment choice.
  • What's required by me for the website project?
    For a website build or redesign, we will need all content that will go into the site. Logo or business name. Any brand guidelines and/or font files, if available. Content for the site, for example, your services and descriptions, your bio, etc. Media assets, such as your photo, any images of your products, videos. If images are not provided, we issue stock images as placeholders until new images are provided to me. If you need online booking or an online store, we will need your bookable services/classes, availibility for appointments, online store product titles, images, descriptions, pricing, etc. Email address you will be using for the website. If you do not have professional email, we can help in acquiring an email through Zoho mail for an additional cost. At the end of the build, you will need: To purchase Wix Hosting (Wix Premium Plan) Your domain name, which can be aquired through Wix Domains
  • What does your price quote include?
    We do our best to provide an ALL-INCLUSIVE price quote, unless otherwise stated. We don't like hidden fees and prices, so we assume the same for you. This is why we take the time to ask a lot of questions upfront and is probably not the cheapest project bid you'll receive. You can read more about what all is included with our price quotes on our pricing page which includes: Mobile formatting Basic Wix SEO All general information entered into your Wix-site dashboard Social media connections Logo set for social sharing Favicon image Domain connection Any relative screenshots and help for specific turnkey self-management of your site. It's also important to us that you love your site! We understand that you see your newly designed site, live, you may decide that a color or format isn't working for you and what we will accomplish during revisions, which include two (2). * NOTE: *Design revisions are considered large-scale design and layout changes after the initial framework has been built. Edits are not included in design revisions, but we will edit and tweak smaller changes that do not impact major design changes, until corrected.
  • How much do you charge for a website (new and redesign)?
    Our pricing breakdowns are as such: $750 USD for classic websites or $950 USD for advanced sites, and $1250 USD for eCommerce sites (up to 20 flat priced items). These price-points are used as a baseline and does not imply this may be your actual quote once all requirements are taken into consideration.
  • Do you provide a payment plan? What are your payment options?
    Unfortunately, we're unable to provide payment plans for my clients. We suggest paying with bank transfer and provide a proof of payment. In regard to payment options, this is determined by who owns the website as its built or redesigned. If we own the website during the built, then we will accept a 50/50 payment option. 50/50 payment option is: 50% of the quoted and accepted build price paid upfront to initiate work. 50% of the quoted price paid at the end of the build, or three weeks (21-days)*, whichever comes first.** * The final 50% payment may be reduced to as little as 7-14 days, or extended beyond 21 days after the initial 50% payment. This is determined on a per-job basis & based on the size of the project. Most project sizes are completed within this timeframe. Timeframes are mostly based on the communications delays during revisions and edits. Bottom line: we wait on the client more than the client waits on me. **Final payment does not close a build if the build is still open. We will still continue to work on your site until 100% completed and launched. If you own the website during the build and we are added as a contributor to your site. 100% payment upfront is required. If you absolutely require a 50/50 payment, a workaround for this option is for you to duplicate your website and transfer the ownership of the duplicated site over to me. NOTE: Unless we're working as a contributor on your site, we will transfer the website to your ownership after final payment has been processed.
  • Will my Wix website be found in Google searches?
    SEO is important and fortunately, Wix has a great SEO built in. Wix has provided all the SEO staples in the backend of their platform and a great SEO Wiz to finish the site right before launch. Our site quotes include all basic Wix SEO into the build/redesign such as: Header tags Image Alt Text where applicable Page titles Page descriptions Wix SEO Wiz (utilizing top 3-5 keywords against page meta titles/descriptions) which is the last step prior to launch and your site is ready to be submitted to Google for indexing. NOTE: We do not offer advanced SEO with custom Meta Tags. Meta Tags are set with page titles, descriptions, and through the use of the Wix SEO Wizard with basic Wix SEO setup. Front, user-facing site maps are not relevant with Wix site builds and Wix automatically updates backend site maps for all Wix sites.
  • Will my site have a site map?
    Yes, your site will have a site map, but not a public-facing, clickable page. Wix's site maps are all backend and set up for Google to crawl them. Font, user-facing site maps are not relevant with Wix site builds. Wix automatically updates backend site maps for all Wix sites.
  • How do I know my website is secure?
    With Wix you can be sure that you are receiving a well tailored security plan for your website at the Web Host level. You can learn more about website security and what Wix provides here - https://www.wix.com/website-security/whitepaper CreativD-Sign does not provide security for your website in any service that we provide.
