Website design questions
How much does a website design cost?
The cost of web design depends on your company’s goals.
Your website design cost is determined on how many pages and features you need. A simple brochure website could need only need a few pages and would take less time to complete than an website that needs to sell multiple products online.
Emerge offers a discovery session to help you build what you need right away. This is a low-cost activity that helps you understand what matters most to your businesss so you can invest in the most efficient website possible.
Do I have control of my website?
Absolutely! You paid for it, so you deserve to have ownership of your website without any strings attached.
When your website is ready to launch, you will be trained on how to operate it so you can update your website without having to depend on us. The training session will be recorded so you can refer back to it to refresh your memory.
If you are too busy or too uncomfortable making changes to your website, we will be available to help via phone or email.
Can you design websites for any industry?
Emerge has years of experience designing websites for many industries.
From construction to hair salons, Emerge helps create a path to success with our discovery phase. This activity helps us understand your brand and its industry to design a personalized website that matches your audience and goals.
How long will my website design take?
To be honest, it depends on a few factors:
- How fast you can respond to us
- The number of features you want on your website
- The amount of pages you need for your site
- Your ability to provide content (pictures and writing the website pages)
For small business owners, providing photos and written content can feel like a homework assignment.

How do I get my website on Google?
Depending on your industry and services, there are tons of factors that come into play when you are trying to rank your website on search engines.
With Emerge, your website is at least designed to be Google-Friendly through initial search engine optimization (SEO).
If you’re going to spend money on your website, don’t you think your website should at least be ready for Google to see it?
While initial search engine optimization (SEO) is a boost to your website, it’s not a guarantee of first-page rankings. If companies promise you fast, first-page organic rankings for your website, please take caution, because not all that glitters is gold.
