Absolutely! There’s all kinds of do-it-yourself website builders out there. Some are easy, some aren’t so easy.
You run your business everyday. Your brand is important. Can you afford to invest the time to learn how to use the website builder, design an effective plan, and then actually make it work?
There are so many facets in a website build that most people aren’t aware of, from basic copy writing and image sizing, specific design elements the automated builders don’t offer, to Search Engine Optimization, eCommerce payment processing and shipping algorithms.
A dedicated and knowledgeable website designer is educated in sales, marketing, and effective design that drives customers to you. They set up your website to work for you, so you don’t have to work for it. -
Your website is the portal to your business, your virtual front door. It’s your hardest working sales person and it should be a significant part of your business investment and marketing budget.
Providing a project price is difficult if we don't know what you need. It really depends on your project size, the content you want, and your expectations. It’s always best to talk to us first and we’ll develop a comprehensive written estimate for you. -
Most website designs can be completed in as little as 3 to 4 weeks. Some can take 6 to 9 months. The larger and more complicated the design, the more time will be required. Having your content & assets ready and responding quickly to our questions can help decrease the design time.

Once your website has been completed and launched to the public, there are some critical things to keep in mind. First, for the next few weeks, we'll keep an eye on how it's performing and that it continues to work as you expect. Second, a website is never really finished. It's fluid and needs new content regularly. Your customers demand it and so do the search engines. You should continually add new information and remove outdated content.
Indig Design offers two ways to do this. We can transfer ownership of the website to you to maintain yourself (we'll always be there for you if you need us). Or, you can subscribe to one of our monthly maintenance packages and leave it to us.
