Common Questions

Questions business owners ask.

How much does a small business website cost?
Every project is scoped to your business needs — page count, features, integrations, and content all shape the investment. We begin with a free introductory call and provide a detailed proposal with clear pricing. No cookie-cutter packages — you get exactly what your business needs.
Why custom WordPress instead of Squarespace or Wix?
Custom WordPress gives you full ownership and control over your site. No monthly platform fees, no design limitations, no risk of a platform changing its pricing or features. Your site is yours — built to your specifications, hosted where you choose.
Do you offer ongoing website maintenance?
Yes. Artifex offers monthly support plans at different levels that include WordPress updates, security monitoring, tracking which searches bring visitors to your site, content updates, and strategic consulting. Plans scale with your needs — from basic maintenance to full-service growth plans that include regular blog content and search performance reports. We'll recommend the right tier during your consultation.
Can you help my business show up in AI search results?
Yes. Artifex builds AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) into every site, structuring your content so that AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity can find and cite your business. We also offer a free Visibility Report at artifex-web.com/visibility.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most projects take 6–8 weeks from kickoff to launch. The timeline includes discovery, research, design, development, content, and testing — each phase reviewed and approved before moving forward.
