Website Design for Buffalo & WNY Businesses

Q: When is my initial deposit due?

Your first payment is due at signing, which officially locks in your project on our schedule. Once payment is received, we begin the planning and design process right away so you can see progress quickly.

Q: Can I pay after the project is finished?

No — projects begin only after the initial payment is made. This protects the time and work set aside for your design. Once your deposit clears, we’ll start developing your site and sending progress updates.

Q: How does billing work?

After your project is completed, you’ll receive a monthly invoice at the end of each month. Your plan continues for 12 months, then automatically renews at a lower upkeep rate. All billing is handled by email — simple, clear, and always documented.

Q: How long will my website take to build?

Most websites launch in three to four weeks, depending on how quickly content and feedback come in. You’ll receive a clear project timeline before we start, and we’ll stay in touch throughout every step to keep things on track.

Q: How many revisions do I get?

Each project includes up to two hours of revisions to fine-tune your design and content. If you’d like to make updates later, your upkeep plan includes one free hour of monthly edits — so your site can grow and evolve as your business grows.

Q: If I cancel my plan, do I own my website?

Yes. If you decide to cancel, simply send 14 days’ written notice by email. If your plan ends within the first 12 months, the remaining design balance becomes due immediately. Once payment is complete and your account is in good standing, full ownership of your website transfers to you.

Why Local Website Design Matters

Search keeps evolving, but your website remains the foundation of your visibility, trust, and growth. AI tools like Google’s AI Mode, ChatGPT, and voice assistants now shape how people find local businesses — and they all rely on structured, accurate websites to deliver real results.

When customers across Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Amherst, or Lockport search for things like:

Who does landscaping near me in North Tonawanda?
Best hair stylist in Buffalo for curly hair
Where can I find family counseling in Amherst?

Search engines and AI models prioritize websites that are fast, mobile-friendly, and tied to verified local data. With clean code, clear structure, and Google Business Profile integration, your business can appear in:

Local pack results
Google Maps
AI summaries
Voice search tools

A professionally built website gives your business lasting credibility, higher visibility, and the power to convert local visitors into loyal customers.
