Questions I
get asked a lot.
Everything you need to know about working with WebSpore. Can't find your answer? Just ask me directly.
// Pricing & Packages
My websites start from £499 for a 5-page custom site. E-commerce stores start from £1,299 and my most popular Growth package is £899. Every Growth and E-Commerce package includes your first month of care plan support free. All prices are fixed upfront — no hidden fees, no surprise invoices. See all pricing here.
The website build is a one-off cost. The only ongoing cost you need to budget for yourself is your domain name (around £10-15/year). I also offer optional monthly care plans from £49/month, which include hosting as standard alongside updates, backups and security monitoring — so there's nothing extra to arrange.
I ask for a 50% deposit before work begins and the remaining 50% on launch. For larger projects I can discuss staged payments — just mention it when you fill in the brief.
I keep things simple. You get a clear written quote before any work starts. Monthly care plans are rolling — no minimum term, cancel anytime.
// Process & Timelines
Most websites are live within 2–3 weeks from brief to launch. E-commerce stores typically take 3–4 weeks. The main thing that affects timeline is how quickly you can provide feedback and content — the faster you respond, the faster I move.
Ideally — your logo, any photos of your business, and the text content for each page. If you don't have these, don't worry. I can write your content for you and use professional stock images where needed. Just select those options in the free brief.
Absolutely. I show you a mockup before building and you approve every stage before anything goes live. Nothing launches without your sign-off.
All packages include up to 3 rounds of revisions. In practice most clients are happy well before that. Additional revisions beyond 3 rounds are charged at my standard hourly rate.
// Technical Questions
I build on WordPress — the world's most popular CMS, powering over 40% of all websites. It's easy to update yourself, works with thousands of plugins, and you're never locked into using me for future changes. For e-commerce builds, I also work with Shopify where it's the better fit.
Yes — every WebSpore website is built mobile-first. Over 60% of web traffic comes from mobile devices, so this isn't optional. Your site will look and work perfectly on phones, tablets and desktops.
You'll need a domain name (your web address) — that's around £10-15 per year. Hosting (the server your site lives on) is included as standard with every monthly care plan, so there's nothing extra to set up or pay for separately. If you'd rather arrange your own hosting, I'm happy to guide you through it.
Yes — I provide full training after launch so you can add pages, update text, change images and manage your content without needing me. If you'd rather I handle it, my monthly care plans include content update hours.
// Local & SEO
Yes — I'm based in Kirkcaldy and work with businesses across all of Fife including Glenrothes, Dunfermline, St Andrews, Cupar, Leven and surrounding areas. I'm also happy to work with businesses further afield.
Every WebSpore website is built with on-page SEO as standard — proper titles, meta descriptions, fast loading speeds and clean code. For businesses wanting to rank for specific local searches, my Local SEO service goes much further with keyword targeting, Google Business Profile optimisation and monthly reporting.
Local SEO is the process of getting your business to appear on Google when people nearby search for what you offer — for example "plumber Kirkcaldy" or "hairdresser Glenrothes". If customers finding you on Google is important to your business, then yes — local SEO is one of the best investments you can make.
Absolutely. I'm based in Kirkcaldy and happy to meet face to face. No video calls required — just a proper conversation about what your business needs.
