FAQ

Common questions about WordPress web design in Portland

How much does a custom WordPress website cost in Portland?

It depends on the scope and complexity of your project. We offer a range of options from simple one-page launches to fully custom builds — with clear pricing discussed upfront before we start. No mystery quotes, no surprises.

Do I have to buy a brand-new site if mine just needs an update?

Not at all. If your current site has good bones, our Website Refresh service modernizes the design and fixes performance without charging you for a full rebuild you don’t actually need.

How long does it take to build a WordPress website in Portland?

The Footprint can be live in 1–2 weeks. The Foundation (custom build) typically takes 6–10 weeks from kickoff to launch. You’ll get a realistic timeline upfront — no surprises.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Open-source WordPress means no lock-in. One-time builds are yours immediately. On the subscription model, ownership transfers after 12 months.

Why WordPress and not Squarespace or Wix?

For most Portland small businesses that want long-term flexibility and strong local SEO, WordPress is the better foundation. You own your content and your platform — not locked into a system that can raise prices or change features without your input. Businesses serious about growth almost always end up on WordPress. We’d rather build it right the first time.

Will my website show up on Google?

Every site includes a solid SEO foundation — clean code, fast load times, proper heading structure, meta titles and descriptions, and submission to Google Search Console. We don’t promise overnight rankings, but we make sure your site is technically set up to be found.

Do you work with businesses outside of Portland?

Yes. Most of our clients are local but we work remotely with small businesses across Oregon and beyond. We do have the option to meet in person when it makes sense.

Do we need to meet in person?

No. Most projects are completed remotely, though local meetings are sometimes an option when helpful.
