FAQs

We get it, choosing the right digital partner is a big decision. Here are some of the most common questions we hear and the 30,000 foot flyover answer.

  • How long does it take to build a custom website?
    With all the necessary assets (logos, images, content), a simple custom business website can launch in as little as 2 weeks. Rapid feedback from your end speeds up the process significantly. Larger or more complex projects require additional time, but we clearly outline every phase to keep you informed.
  • Why is it important for my business to have a website?
    Your website acts as your most effective salesperson—available 24/7 to attract leads, build customer trust, and promote your brand. A professionally designed website boosts your online presence, credibility, and marketing effectiveness, driving business growth.
  • What is website accessibility, and why is it important?
    Website accessibility ensures your site can be used by everyone, including those with visual, auditory, cognitive, or physical disabilities. An accessible website broadens your audience, improves SEO rankings, and demonstrates your business’s commitment to inclusivity and compliance with regulations like the ADA.
  • Who will host my business website?
    We recommend hosting your website with Rudder Digital for superior performance, security, and ongoing support. If you prefer another hosting provider, we’ll ensure seamless integration and optimal site performance regardless.
  • Will my business website be mobile-friendly?
    Yes, absolutely. With over 55% of web traffic coming from mobile devices, every website we create is fully responsive, ensuring perfect functionality and visual appeal across smartphones, tablets, and desktops.
  • What if I’m not happy with the work?
    We’re not done until you’re satisfied. We collaborate closely and revise as needed to make sure the final result meets your expectations.
  • How do I share feedback?
    Feedback should be easy. Whether it’s through Figma comments, email, or even a quick text, we make it simple for you to share ideas and changes.
  • Do you offer website maintenance plans after launch?
    Yes, we provide comprehensive website maintenance plans tailored to your specific needs. These plans ensure your site stays secure, fast, updated, and optimized for ongoing success, giving you peace of mind.
  • What happens after my website goes live?
    After your website launches, we continue supporting your digital journey. From performance monitoring and regular security checks to content updates and technical support, we offer ongoing assistance to ensure your site continually meets your business goals.
  • Who do I contact if there are issues or I need support?
    You will have direct access to a support team member who can assist you quickly and efficiently. We’re available via phone, email, or text, ensuring fast, reliable support whenever you need it.
  • Which CMS platforms does Rudder Digital work with?
    We work with all major Content Management Systems (CMS), including WordPress, ExpressionEngine, Webflow, Drupal, Shopify, Squarespace, Wix, and Directus. We’ll recommend the best CMS based on your specific needs, goals, and level of comfort with website management.
  • Why not hire a full-time developer?
    Hiring a senior developer could cost $150k+ per year, plus benefits. With Rudder Digital, you get top-tier expertise without the overhead—only pay for what you need.
  • What is your project process?
    It’s simple and transparent. We kick off with a discovery call, map out goals, and keep you updated at every step. Feedback is welcomed, and we’re always a call or message away.
  • Can my website connect to social media?
    Definitely. We seamlessly integrate your website with all major social media platforms, helping you engage your audience across every channel.
