The amount of time it takes to build a website can vary greatly depending on several factors, such as the complexity of the design, the number of features and functionalities required, and the size of the team working on the project. A simple brochure-style website with a few pages and limited features can typically be completed in a few weeks, while a more complex site with custom features and a large amount of content can take several months to build. It's also important to note that website development projects often require collaboration and approvals from multiple stakeholders, which can impact the timeline. The best way to determine the timeline for your website project is to have a detailed conversation with a web development team to understand your requirements and determine a realistic timeline based on those needs.
-
This is a tricky one, as there is no ‘one size fits all’, however, the cost of a website can be affected by a number of factors, including the complexity of the design, the number of features and functionalities required, the amount of custom development work needed, and if content is also required.
A simple brochure-style website with a few pages and limited features can cost anywhere from £1000 - £2000, while a more complex site with custom features and a large amount of content can cost from approx £10’000. The cost of a website also increases with the addition of premium design elements, custom graphics, e-commerce capabilities, and other advanced features.

This can really depend on a few key factors, including the type of website, the industry it serves, the target audience, and the goals of the website.
In general, we’d recommended to update your website regularly to keep its content fresh, improve its search engine optimisation (SEO), and maintain the interest of visitors. This can include updating your company news, product offerings, and case studies, adding new blog posts, and making other content changes.
For a blog or news-focused website, it's important to add new content on a consistent basis, such as once a week or more. For a brochure-style business websites, updating the content a few times a year may be sufficient. If your website includes an e-commerce component, it's really important to keep product information and prices up-to-date.
Don’t forget to regularly review your website for technical issues, such as broken links, and perform routine maintenance and software updates to ensure its security and optimal performance. This is crucial for Wordpress websites.
Ultimately, the frequency of website updates should align with your business goals and the needs of your target audience. You can work with a website development team to develop a content update strategy that meets your needs and supports the success of your online presence.

Ease of Use: Squarespace has a simple, drag-and-drop interface that makes it easy for non-technical users to create a website, while WordPress requires a little more technical know-how to use effectively.
Design: Squarespace offers pre-made templates that can be customized with limited design options, while WordPress offers a wider range of design options and customisation possibilities with the use of themes and plugins.
Cost: Squarespace has a monthly subscription model that includes hosting, while WordPress is free to use, but requires separate hosting, domain and maintenance costs.
Scalability: WordPress is more flexible and scalable, allowing you to add features and functionality as your website grows and create bespoke functionality, while Squarespace has limitations on the number of features and pages you can add.
SEO: Both Squarespace and WordPress are optimised for search engines, but WordPress offers more control over SEO and is considered more SEO-friendly by experts. However, we can achieve amazing results with both platforms.
E-commerce: Squarespace offers built-in e-commerce capabilities, while WordPress requires the use of plugins for e-commerce functionality.
Mobile-responsive: Both Squarespace and WordPress are mobile-responsive, but Squarespace's templates are specifically designed for mobile, making the mobile experience smoother for users ‘out of the box’.
Integration: WordPress has a wide range of integrations with third-party tools, while Squarespace has a limited number of integrations, but they are easy to set up.
Support: Squarespace offers 24/7 customer support, while with a business WordPress website, your agency will be required to provide most non-CMS upgrades.
Development: Squarespace has limited options for custom development, while WordPress offers a wide range of development options for those with the technical skills.
Ultimately, the choice between Squarespace and WordPress will depend on your specific business needs, budget, and level of technical expertise. Both platforms have their pros and cons, and the best choice for your business will depend on your specific requirements. Talk to us and we can highlight where you could best use each system.
