      The website is very user-friendly. A lot of our customer base is older, so they’re not always the most technologically savvy. However, Forty4 Design made sure that the website was easy to navigate.

      FAQs

      How long does a website take to build?

      L
      K

      Most web design projects take 4–8 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on the size and complexity of the project.

       

      A streamlined landing page or smaller site can move faster, while larger websites with more pages, integrations, or custom functionality may take longer. The biggest factor is usually how quickly content, feedback, and approvals move during the process.

       

      At Forty4, we follow a clear process — strategy → design → development → launch — to keep things efficient while making sure the final site is polished, intentional, and built to perform.

      How much does it cost to build a website?

      L
      K

      Website investment varies depending on the scope of the project. Factors that affect cost include:

       

      • Number of pages
      • Custom design requirements
      • Content creation
      • SEO setup
      • Integrations or advanced functionality

       

      Most web design projects fall into a range between $4,000 – $15,000+, depending on complexity.

      We focus on building websites that actually support your brand and business goals, not just something that looks good. After learning about your needs, we’ll provide a clear proposal outlining scope, timeline, and investment.

      How many pages do I get with my website?

      L
      K

      Most of our web design projects include 5–10 core pages, which typically cover everything a growing brand needs, such as:

       

      • Home
      • About
      • Services
      • Portfolio / Work
      • Contact

       

      Additional pages can always be added if your project requires them. Our goal is to build a site structure that makes sense for your business and your audience, not just hit a fixed number of pages

      Is SEO included with my website?

      L
      K

      Yes, every website we build includes foundational SEO setup. This typically includes:

       

      • SEO-friendly site structure
      • Meta titles and descriptions
      • Optimized page hierarchy
      • Mobile performance optimization
      • Google indexing setup

      Maintenance plans can include things like:

       

      • Security updates
      • Plugin or platform updates
      • Performance monitoring
      • Content updates
      • Technical support

       

      If you prefer to manage updates yourself, we can absolutely set up your site so it’s easy to maintain on your own.

      Can I edit the website myself?

      L
      K

      Yes. We build websites using platforms that allow you to easily update content, images, and pages without needing to code.

       

      Once your site launches, we’ll provide guidance so you know how to manage basic updates. And if you ever need help, our team is always available for support or larger changes.

      Is my website mobile friendly?

      L
      K

      Absolutely. Every web design project we make is fully responsive, meaning it automatically adapts to phones, tablets, and desktop screens.

       

      Since most users now browse on mobile devices, we design with mobile performance and usability in mind from the start, ensuring your site looks great and functions smoothly on any device.

      Do you provide website hosting?

      L
      K

      Yes we can absolutely help with hosting.

       

      If you don’t already have hosting set up, we can recommend and configure a reliable hosting solution that keeps your website fast, secure, and stable.

       

      For clients on our ongoing care plans, we can also help manage hosting, updates, and performance monitoring so you don’t have to worry about the technical side of things.

      What do you need from me to start the project?

      L
      K

      To get started, we typically need a few key things:

       

      • Your brand assets (logo, colors, fonts if available)
      • Website content (or direction for us to help create it)
      • Examples of websites you like
      • Information about your services, audience, and goals

       

      Don’t worry if you don’t have everything fully prepared yet. Part of our process is helping you clarify your messaging and structure your content so your website communicates your brand clearly and effectively.

      Will my website be custom designed?

      L
      K

      Yes. Our web design services is custom-made to fit your brand and business goals.

       

      We don’t use generic templates or one-size-fits-all layouts. Instead, we design your website from the ground up so it reflects your brand identity, communicates your value clearly, and creates a strong experience for your audience.

      The result is a website that feels intentional, professional, and uniquely yours.

      What happens after my website launches?

      L
      K

      Launching your website is just the beginning. After your site goes live, we can continue supporting your growth with services such as:

       

      • Website maintenance and updates
      • SEO optimization
      • Landing page development
      • Performance improvements
      • Design or content updates as your business evolves

       

      Our goal is to build a website that not only launches successfully, but continues to support your brand long after the project is complete.

      Why should I invest in a professionally designed website?

      L
      K

      Your website is often the first impression people have of your brand. A professionally designed website helps ensure that impression builds trust, credibility, and interest in what you offer.

       

      While DIY builders and templates can work for basic needs, they rarely provide the strategy, customization, and performance needed for a business that wants to grow.

       

      A professionally built website is designed to:

       

      • Clearly communicate your brand and value
      • Create a strong first impression with potential customers
      • Provide a seamless experience across all devices
      • Support search visibility and long-term marketing
      • Turn visitors into inquiries, leads, and customers

       

      At Forty4, we approach web design as more than just visuals. We combine strategy, design, and development to create a site that not only looks great, but also works as a powerful tool for your business.

      Make Your Website Impossible to Ignore

      No fluff. No templates. Just intentional design built to elevate your brand and grow your business.
