Frequently asked questions about ordering a website or app
The questions we are asked most before a project starts — about prices, timelines, domains and hosting, SEO and support. If yours is not here, just ask.
Websites
How do I start ordering a website?
Describe your business, goal and main services, and what a visitor should do on the site: call, send a form or buy. Logo and copy can follow later.
Can my existing site be updated?
Yes. We first review existing pages, links and features, then plan redirects for any changed addresses so rankings are not lost.
Will the site work on phones?
Yes. Design starts with small screens: touch controls, easy forms and one-tap calling.
Can I edit the text myself?
If the project includes a content management system, you edit text and photos yourself. Agree this in advance, as it affects the choice of system.
Can the website have several languages?
Yes. Each language needs its own addresses and complete translations. The number of languages affects cost and timing.
I have a Facebook page — do I really need a website?
If customers also search for you on Google, social media alone is not enough. A website brings services, prices and contact together under your control. See Facebook page or website.
Apps
Should we build Android and iOS together?
It depends on your audience and budget. React Native builds both from one code base, so together they cost less than two separate projects.
What is an MVP?
A first version with only the functions needed to test the core idea. It lowers the initial budget and bases later decisions on real feedback.
Is App Store or Google Play approval guaranteed?
No. Each store reviews submissions independently. We prepare the required materials and compliance checks, which lowers the risk of rejection.
Who should own the developer accounts?
The client. Apple and Google accounts are opened in the business’s name; working access is granted by role.
Pricing
How much does a website or app cost?
A starter site from GEL 250, a business site from GEL 600, an app from GEL 1,100. The exact price depends on features, design, integrations and content — see the pricing page.
Is the price one-off or monthly?
Development is a one-off cost. Domain and hosting are annual, and maintenance is agreed separately — only if you need it.
What raises the price most?
The number of languages, online payments, booking and warehouse integrations, custom illustrations and migrating content from an old site.
Are there hidden costs?
Everything outside our work is listed separately in the proposal: domain, hosting, paid licences, payment-provider fees, developer accounts.
Timelines
How long will the project take?
We define scope and required materials first, then agree the stages and timeline. Orientation by type: how long a website takes.
What delays projects most often?
Late text and photos, drawn-out design approvals and waiting on third parties — bank approval, domain transfer, App Store review.
Can we launch in stages?
Yes. It is often better to publish the core pages first and add further sections and languages later.
Domain and hosting
Who should own the domain?
The client, in their own account. Access for development is granted separately. This protects your independence.
Which hosting is better?
It depends on the technology: modern CDN platforms for static and React sites, PHP hosting for WordPress. We recommend per project. Details: domains and hosting in Georgia.
Is an SSL certificate included?
HTTPS is mandatory in every project. On most modern hosting the certificate is free and renews automatically; exceptions are stated in the proposal.
SEO
Does the project include SEO?
Technical foundations — titles, descriptions, fast loading, sitemap, sound structure — are part of building the site. Content strategy and ongoing SEO are a separate service: SEO optimisation.
Is appearing in Google automatic?
We prepare the technical basis for indexing and connect Search Console, but Google decides the position. There is no guarantee of first place — be careful with anyone who promises it.
Why is my existing site not visible in Google?
The most common reasons: blocked indexing, thin or duplicate content, a slow mobile version and lack of authority. How to find out: why a website does not appear in Google.
Support
What happens after launch?
At handover we show how the site is managed and agree who is responsible for updates. If you wish, maintenance continues as a separate format.
Do you support sites built by other developers?
That is decided after an initial review. We need access to the code, hosting and required licences.
Is 24/7 support included?
Not automatically. Service hours, channels and response times are agreed explicitly.
