Straight answers
Questions before we build.
Clear scope starts with direct answers. These are the questions we hear most often from businesses considering a new website or content system.
What does a custom website cost?+
A custom website starts at $3,500 for up to seven pages. A CMS and blog is $3,500, or $6,500 when combined with the website. Site audits, design mock-ups, integrations, and other scoped work are priced separately in the services menu above.
What do I own when the project is finished?+
You own the repository, code, domain, content, data, hosting account, credentials, and billing relationships. We build inside client-owned infrastructure so there is no proprietary platform between you and your business.
How long does a website project take?+
Most custom website projects take three to five weeks after scope, content, and access are ready. We establish the homepage direction first so the visual system and message are approved before the rest of the site is completed.
Is SEO and AI search optimization included?+
Yes. Custom website builds include technical SEO, page structure, metadata, structured data, local context, and content patterns designed for traditional search and AI answer systems. No honest builder can guarantee rankings, but the foundations are part of the build.
Can I edit the website myself?+
Yes. The CMS option gives you a focused editing system for publishing and updating content without touching code. The site remains portable, and you can keep editing it yourself or ask us to help when needed.
Can you replace or migrate an existing website?+
Yes. We can audit the current site, preserve useful content and search equity, improve the information architecture, and move the finished site onto infrastructure your business controls.
Do I need an ongoing contract?+
No. There is no required maintenance contract or platform subscription from us. Ongoing development and support are available by arrangement, but the completed website does not depend on retaining SWNW Signals.
Can you connect booking tools, reviews, or other business systems?+
Yes. We build integrations for existing booking tools, review platforms, forms, content systems, and custom workflows. We confirm the systems and access requirements before pricing the integration.
