We don't accept payment in exchange for a place in the Top 5. Featured placements are separate and always clearly labelled. Rankings may change over time as businesses evolve.
Look at the portfolio first. Browse their recent sites for design quality, loading speed and how they work on a phone. Sites in your industry, or with the features you need (bookings, e-commerce, member areas), are a good sign.
Understand the platform and who owns what. WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace and custom builds each have trade-offs. Confirm who owns the site, domain and hosting, and whether you can edit content yourself or rely on the designer.
Check the build covers the essentials and the after-care. Mobile-friendly design, basic SEO, analytics and a contact or booking path should be standard. Ask about timelines, total cost, and ongoing support, updates and hosting before you commit.
A small business brochure site often runs from around $2,000 to $6,000, while e-commerce or custom builds cost more. Ongoing hosting, maintenance and support are usually separate, so confirm the full picture before you start.
A straightforward small-business site typically takes three to six weeks once content is ready; larger or e-commerce sites take longer. Providing your text, images and feedback promptly is the biggest factor in hitting the timeline.
WordPress is flexible and common, Shopify suits online stores, and Squarespace is simple for smaller sites. Custom builds offer the most control. The right choice depends on your needs, budget and who will maintain it.
You should own your domain and site outright. Hosting can be with the designer or a provider you control. Get ownership and access in writing so you are never locked in if you change designers.
A good designer builds in the basics, fast loading, mobile-friendly design, clean structure, page titles and descriptions, and analytics. Ongoing SEO and content is usually a separate service, often offered by the same studio.
Most do, through maintenance plans covering updates, backups, security and small changes. Clarify what is included, response times and the cost, so your site stays secure and current after launch.
