Answers covering new websites, redesigns, mobile responsiveness, content and the website development process.
Website Design FAQs
How much does a new business website cost?
The cost of a website depends on its size, features, content requirements and the amount of bespoke development involved. A straightforward service-business website will naturally cost less than a large website requiring numerous pages or specialist functionality.
Web Boosters does not take an off-the-shelf approach. We will discuss your business, objectives and budget before recommending a suitable solution and providing a clear quotation. Visit our contact page to request an estimate.
How long does it take to design and build a website?
Timescales vary according to the size of the project, how quickly content is supplied and whether specialist features are required.
Once the project scope is agreed, we will explain the expected stages and provide a realistic schedule. Prompt feedback and having your text, images and branding available will normally help the project move more efficiently.
Can Web Boosters redesign my existing website?
Yes. An existing website can be redesigned when it looks dated, performs poorly on mobile devices, no longer reflects your services or has become difficult to update.
We can assess what is worth retaining, identify weaknesses and build a refreshed website around your current business. A redesign does not always mean discarding every useful part of your existing online presence.
Will my new website work on mobile phones and tablets?
Yes. Web Boosters creates responsive websites designed to adapt across desktop computers, laptops, tablets and mobile phones.
Mobile usability is considered throughout the design process rather than being added as an afterthought. Navigation, text, imagery, forms and calls to action should all remain accessible on smaller screens.
Is SEO included when you build a website?
Our websites are developed with sensible SEO foundations, including a clear page structure, mobile-responsive design, readable URLs and properly organised content.
However, building an SEO-friendly website is different from running an ongoing SEO campaign. Competitive search visibility normally requires continued content development, technical work, local optimisation and performance monitoring. Read more about our SEO services.
Do you build websites using WordPress?
WordPress is used for many Web Boosters projects because it provides a flexible content-management platform that can be adapted to different businesses.
The exact setup will depend on the project. Our focus is not simply installing WordPress; it is creating a professional website structure, design and customer journey around your business.
Do I need to provide the website text and images?
Any existing text, branding, photography and service information will help us understand your business and speed up the process.
We can guide you on the content each page requires and identify where stronger copy or imagery would improve the finished website. The responsibilities for writing, editing and sourcing imagery should be agreed when the project is scoped.
Can you create a website for a new business?
Yes. We work with both established companies and businesses creating their first professional online presence.
For a new business, we can help organise the site around your priority services, target customers and locations. You do not need to understand web design terminology before getting started; we will explain the process in plain English.
Can I update the website after it has launched?
WordPress websites are designed to make routine content updates more manageable. The level of access and ongoing assistance required can be agreed as part of your project.
More substantial layout, technical or SEO changes may still benefit from professional support to avoid damaging the design, performance or search visibility of the website.
Can I see examples of websites you have created?
Yes. Our website design portfolio contains examples of completed client projects, along with case studies explaining the objectives, design approach and finished result.
Reviewing relevant projects is a useful way to understand how we adapt the design and content around different industries.
SEO FAQs
Straightforward explanations covering search visibility, local SEO, campaign timescales and our Web Boost Packages.
What is search engine optimisation?
Search engine optimisation, commonly shortened to SEO, is the process of improving a website so that search engines can better understand its content and consider it for relevant searches.
SEO can involve keyword research, content improvements, technical optimisation, internal linking, local business information and work to strengthen the website’s authority and user experience.
How long does SEO take to produce results?
SEO is normally a medium-to-long-term process rather than an instant advertising switch.
The time required depends on the competitiveness of your market, your current website, previous SEO work, the quality of competing sites and the searches being targeted. Some improvements may become visible relatively quickly, while competitive campaigns can require sustained work over several months.
Can you guarantee that my website will rank number one?
No responsible SEO company can guarantee a particular number-one position. Search results are controlled by search engines and can vary by location, device, competition and ongoing algorithm changes.
Our approach is to identify realistic opportunities, improve your website methodically and report on meaningful progress rather than promise a position that no agency directly controls.
What is local SEO?
Local SEO helps businesses become more visible to customers searching within a particular town, county or service area.
It can include improving location-focused website content, optimising business profiles, strengthening consistent contact information, publishing relevant local pages and building trust through reviews and useful content.
Do I need SEO if I already have a website?
A website does not automatically attract relevant search traffic simply because it has been published.
SEO can help search engines understand which services you provide, where you operate and which searches your pages are relevant to. It can also identify technical, content and usability issues that may be restricting performance.
What work is included in an SEO campaign?
The exact work depends on your website and objectives. A campaign may involve research, technical checks, on-page optimisation, content creation, internal linking, local SEO improvements, competitor analysis and ongoing monitoring.
Web Boosters provides a bespoke approach rather than applying the same checklist to every company.
How do you choose which keywords to target?
Keyword selection should balance relevance, search intent, competition and commercial value.
The highest-volume phrase is not always the best target. We look for searches that accurately reflect your services and are likely to be used by the customers you want to attract.
Will blogging improve my SEO?
Useful blog content can support SEO by answering customer questions, covering related topics and creating internal-linking opportunities.
Publishing large quantities of thin or repetitive articles is unlikely to provide the same value. Each post should have a clear purpose, address a genuine question and support the wider structure of your website.
What is an SEO audit?
An SEO audit reviews a website to identify technical problems, weak content, structural issues and potential opportunities.
The audit should produce practical recommendations rather than simply listing automated warnings. It can be used as the starting point for a campaign or as a one-off assessment of the website’s current condition.
What is a Web Boost Package?
A Web Boost Package is a more focused alternative for businesses that are not ready to commit to a full ongoing SEO campaign.
Packages can begin with an SEO audit and include one-off optimisation work based on the issues and opportunities identified. Learn more about our Web Boost Packages.
Do you provide reports for ongoing SEO campaigns?
Ongoing SEO should include clear communication about the work completed, developments observed and the next priorities.
The reporting format and meeting schedule can be agreed around the campaign. Our aim is to explain progress in understandable terms rather than hide behind unnecessary technical language.
Working With Web Boosters
Practical information about our service areas, contracts, meetings and how to begin a project.
Which areas do Web Boosters cover?
Web Boosters works with businesses throughout Kent, Essex and the wider Southeast.
Because much of the design and SEO process can be managed remotely, we can also discuss projects with businesses outside our immediate local area where the service is a suitable fit.
Do you only work with large companies?
No. Our services are particularly suited to small and medium-sized businesses that want professional support without dealing with layers of changing account managers.
We have worked across a wide range of industries and adapt the project around the size, objectives and priorities of each business.
Are your services bespoke?
Yes. We do not believe every company should receive the same website structure or identical SEO plan.
Recommendations are based on your existing online presence, services, customers, competitors, locations and available budget.
Do I have to sign a lengthy contract?
Web Boosters promotes flexible arrangements rather than unnecessarily lengthy commitments.
The exact terms depend on the service selected. A website project, one-off Web Boost Package and ongoing SEO campaign naturally require different scopes and working arrangements, all of which should be clearly agreed before work begins.
Can we meet in person or virtually?
Yes. Meetings can be held virtually, and in-person discussions may also be arranged where practical.
The important point is that communication remains clear and consistent throughout the project.
Will I deal with the same people throughout my project?
Web Boosters is a small, dedicated team. This allows clients to have more consistent contact rather than repeatedly being passed between changing account managers and departments.
The people involved will depend on the work required, but communication and continuity are central to our approach.
