FAQs

A few things people usually ask.

Can’t see your question? See all FAQs or WhatsApp us.

How much does a website cost in Cape Town?+

Our custom websites start from R12,500, and AI template kits from R599 a month with hosting included. Online stores start from R22,000, and bigger builds are quoted on scope upfront, so there are no surprises. See our website pricing guide for a full breakdown.

How long does it take to build a website?+

Most custom websites take 3 to 4 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on content and feedback. Template kits usually launch in 1 to 2 weeks.

Where are you based, and which areas do you work in?+

We’re based in Hilton, near Pietermaritzburg. We work online with clients in Cape Town, the KZN Midlands and the rest of South Africa, and can meet in person if you’re in or near Hilton.

Shopify or WooCommerce for my online store?+

Shopify is simple to run and great for most product brands. WooCommerce suits sites already on WordPress or that need custom features. We’ll recommend what fits.

Can you redesign my existing website without losing rankings?+

Yes. We review what’s working, keep the pages that rank, and set up 301 redirects so your Google rankings and visitors carry over to the new site.

Do I own my website and domain?+

Custom builds are yours from launch: the domain, website and content, once the final invoice is paid. Template kits are yours after the handover fee (R2,500 / R3,500 / R4,500), payable after the 12-month minimum. Either way, your domain is registered in your name.
