Web Design FAQs:
Have questions about custom website design or development? You're in the right place.
This FAQ section answers the most common questions I receive about website design, development, hosting, pricing, and ongoing maintenance. Whether you're a small business owner in Santa Rosa or need a professional website anywhere in Sonoma County or beyond, these answers will help guide you through the process.
I specialize in user-friendly, custom websites built on platforms like WordPress and Shopify, and I’m here to make things easy and transparent from start to finish.

A new website can often be completed in as little as one week. The timeline depends largely on how much of your content (text, images, product info, etc.) is ready at the start. If you’re still gathering content, I can begin the design process and integrate your content once it’s finalized.
You'll have full access to your website and hosting after launch. Platforms like WordPress and Shopify offer user-friendly dashboards for making your own updates. If you'd prefer to have someone else handle changes, I offer affordable update and maintenance services.
I’m based in Santa Rosa and have lived in Sonoma County my entire life. I work remotely from my home office, and all client communication is handled via phone, email, or video call to ensure convenience and flexibility.
Yes! I specialize in eCommerce development using platforms like WooCommerce and Shopify. Whether you're launching a new online store or improving an existing one, I can help create a seamless and secure shopping experience.
Absolutely. I offer professional copywriting and content development services, including proofreading and SEO optimization, to ensure your message is clear and effective.
That’s a great starting point! If you already have a website, we’ll begin by evaluating your current setup and goals. If your hosting provider supports WordPress or your site is already built on WordPress, the redesign process can be streamlined. However, if your website is built on another platform, I can still work with it—as long as it supports the features and functionality you need in your updated site. Whether we build on your existing platform or transition to a new one, I’ll help guide you toward the best solution for your business.
I accept PayPal, Venmo, or check. In most cases, no upfront payment is required. You’ll be invoiced once your website is complete and approved.
