Website FAQs
Clear answers before you start a website project.
Pricing, deposits, ownership, domains, hosting, timelines, revisions, content, maintenance, and SEO should be understandable before you commit to a build.
How much does a Forge Web Studio website cost?
Starter websites begin around $500, Growth websites begin around $1,200, and Custom websites begin around $2,500. Final pricing depends on scope, page count, integrations, content needs, revision requirements, and timeline.
What does the $250 starting deposit cover?
The $250 deposit begins an approved project after scope review. It reserves the project slot and opens onboarding, planning, and development preparation. The deposit is applied toward the agreed project total.
How long does a website project take?
Timelines depend on scope, content readiness, communication, integrations, third-party services, and revision speed. Starter projects are commonly estimated around 7-14 days, Growth projects around 2-4 weeks, and larger Custom projects around 4-8 weeks.
Do I own the website and accounts?
Forge Web Studio aims to make ownership, account access, domain connection, hosting, and handoff expectations clear before launch. Exact ownership and access details are confirmed in the project scope and agreement.
Can Forge redesign my current website?
Yes. Redesign work can improve visual quality, mobile usability, content clarity, service pages, calls to action, speed, technical foundations, and local SEO structure.
Can Forge help with domains and hosting?
Yes. Forge can help connect a domain, prepare launch settings, and explain hosting options. Domain ownership and external account access should stay clear to the business owner.
Can Forge write website copy?
Forge can help structure and draft practical website copy around services, trust, location, common questions, and conversion paths. The business owner should still review details for accuracy.
Can Forge build contact forms, booking flows, or CRM integrations?
Yes. Contact, quote, booking, intake, email, analytics, payment, scheduling, and CRM integrations can be included when they are part of the agreed project scope.
Does Forge guarantee Google rankings or leads?
No. Forge Web Studio can build local-search foundations, crawlable pages, metadata, structured data, internal links, and helpful content, but it does not guarantee rankings, traffic, leads, revenue, or specific business results.
Are the demos real client websites?
Some work may be live product work, while many website concepts are fictional demos built to show visual direction, content structure, trust systems, and conversion paths. Demo and concept pages are labeled so they are not mistaken for client claims.
Does Forge work outside South Texas?
Forge is based in La Vernia and primarily serves San Antonio, Floresville, Seguin, New Braunfels, La Vernia, Wilson County, Bexar County, Guadalupe County, and surrounding South Texas communities. Qualified businesses elsewhere in Texas may also be a fit.
What happens after launch?
Launch support can include final checks, domain connection, form testing, metadata review, and handoff guidance. Ongoing maintenance and content updates are available when included in scope or selected as follow-up support.
