WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
Preparing for Development
Development takes a long time and should not be rushed. A standard website may seem simple on the outside, but can be complex internally. We will sometimes recommend phases to roll out your website into its full functionality. If your website requires a larger conversation, we partner with Peritum Studios (our most-trusted website development partner) for your development. There are a few things you should consider in terms of development which we can discuss together in our consultation. The list below gives a brief explanation of the inclusions.
Consultation
We do this together to understand your needs better. This is in-depth so we highly encourage my clients to prepare. We will ask about your company and help define what is needed on your site. A marketing plan would come in handy during this discussion.
CMS Installation
We’ll install a blank CMS into the hosting. This is 100% self-hosted into your own hosting for the Basic Website. Installing the CMS allows you to have the potential of expanding your website to a blog, shop, booking system, etc.
Image Optimisation
Images can bloat up a website if not properly uploaded and is one of the primary causes for a slow site. We’ll ensure that your images are optimised to the smallest possible size without compromising your design.
Responsive
Responsive means that it will change how it looks according to the size of the device being used. Websites need to be responsive as many people will be viewing on mobiles. To do this, we test the view on various devices and platforms.
SSL Activation
SSL (secure sockets layer) is basically your website security. When setting up a site, it defaults to HTTP and advises browsers that the site is not secure. Activating the SSL changes your site from HTTP to HTTPS and tells the browser that your site is secure. Please be wary that not all providers will allow free Auto SSL. We have experienced this with at least GoDaddy and Wix who ask you to pay additional each year for SSL. Please have the consult prior to purchasing your domain. SSL is a requirement with websites or your consumers will be turned away from your website.
Website Design
We will recommend the most suitable look and feel for your site and tweak it to the design you want. This is one of the ways we cut down the cost of web development.
*Maintenance
We offer maintenance to the All-in-One Website. This includes maintaining, backup, and updating the website for a small monthly fee. This is not automatically offered into Basic Websites so please request for this if you don’t want to do the maintenance yourself.
Contact Form
A contact form is quite handy for websites as your clients can send you a message. We will set this up for websites and will need you to provide a company email for the form. Having a professional company email helps your brand image. We may also add a captcha to keep spam minimal.
Self-Hosted
Self-hosted means you are responsible for hosting your website. Hosting is the storage in which all your website files are stored. If you wish to understand more about how websites work, We’ve created a simple guide here.
cPanel Email Setup
Website hosting often comes with a cPanel area that has an option to create emails. We can set this up if it is available. cPanel emails don’t have good ranking on a new domain so it will often end up in junk mail at the beginning until your domain gets a better reputation. This can be worked around if you pay for an email via Google or Microsoft but this still doesn’t guarantee that your emails won’t be flagged as junk. We recommend beginning with a free email in your cPanel and building up its reputation before deciding on paid emails.
2 Hour Basic Web Training
For 5-page+ websites, we hand over the site with some basic training and documentation. Once this is completed, the website is completely yours!
eCommerce Shop Setup
An ecommerce shop can be set up with the Basic Package but it will cost extra. Please let us know if you need this during the initial conversation. You can also plan to expand to a shop in the future with either setup as well. Other developers can also continue this work later if you choose this path.

*Maintenance includes backup management as well as regular updating of back end systems after web development. This is offered to clients who opt for the All-In-One service as we host the site on our hosting server. This is an ongoing cost that includes updating your site content. Updating content can include updating of multimedia items like photos, icons, videos, and written materials in your site but not the creation of the content. If you wish to opt for maintenance with your Basic Website, you will need to advise this during development and provide access to your hosting. If you need separate services that are not included in these packages, you may purchase them individually by contacting for a quote.
