Answers for buyers

Questions, answered.

The cost, timeline, SEO, ownership, and scope questions every business owner asks before hiring a web design agency.

How much does a website cost?

Custom websites from Verlua run $2,500 – $5,000 one-time, and the price scales with scope — number of pages, third-party integrations, and how much content we write for you. Ongoing SEO is billed separately at $1,500 – $2,500/mo with no long-term contract. Every engagement starts with a free scoping call and a fixed-fee proposal, so there are no hourly billing surprises.

How long does it take to build a website?

A marketing website with standard pages typically takes 4 to 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. Projects with custom features, integrations, or full content production run 8 to 12 weeks. Larger builds with e-commerce, location pages, or multi-stage workflows can run 3 to 6 months. The timeline is locked in writing before development starts and tracked against milestone checkpoints.

How long does SEO take to work?

Meaningful local SEO movement usually shows up 3 to 6 months after launch, with compounding gains through month 12. Every Verlua build ships with the SEO foundation in place — crawl-friendly Next.js architecture, schema markup, fast Core Web Vitals, keyword-targeted page copy, and local business schema for service-area companies. Faster timelines are possible for low-competition terms; competitive commercial keywords take longer.

Who owns my website when the project is done?

You own everything: the code, the content, the domain, and the hosting account. Verlua does not hold your site hostage on a proprietary platform or lock you into a monthly rental model. At launch, we transfer full repository access, admin credentials, and documentation. If you ever decide to move on, the entire website goes with you with no exit fees.

What is included in a web design package?

Every Verlua project includes custom visual design, Next.js and React development, fully responsive layouts across mobile and desktop, on-page SEO setup, Google Analytics installation, a contact form with CRM integration, content management training, and 30 days of post-launch support. E-commerce functionality, advanced SEO retainers, and ongoing maintenance are scoped and priced separately so you only pay for what you actually need.
