Business Website Development: Choosing the Right Type of Site

In business website development, the type of site is set by what a visitor has to do once they open it, not by the budget. Leaving an inquiry calls for one structure; comparing a dozen products and then calling, for another; finding your page in search among a hundred similar ones, for a third. So a one-page business site and a two-hundred-page catalog differ less in the amount of work than in where their visitors come from. Industry is another dividing line: medicine has its own limits on what you can claim, and manufacturers have their own requirements for describing products. The first review of your project is free, and it often turns out you need a simpler type of site than you expected.

How it works

How we build a website: from the task to launch and warranty

  1. We review the task and audience

    First we work out what the site must do for the business and who will use it.

  2. We build in stages under a contract

    Each stage has a scope and an acceptance procedure written into a contract.

  3. We hand over and stand behind it

    The result is handed over by act, with the domain and access registered to you. A 30-day warranty runs from signing the act.

We name timelines and costs after an audit, because the scope of sites that look alike can differ several times over.

Who it's for

Situations where this service delivers results

Scenario 1 of 4

There's no website, and nothing to send when someone asks for a link

What you need here is a page that properly answers three questions: who you are, what you do, and how to reach you, and a large project isn't required for that. A business card site or a landing page covers this faster and cheaper than a corporate website, and that's where it makes sense to start.

We'll review your situation in a free audit
What's included

Complete list of work and what you get as a result

  • An answer to the main question before work starts: which type of site solves your task, and why it's not the more expensive one that usually gets offered
  • A page structure built around how people search and choose, rather than around what's convenient for the admin panel: sections, filters, and the path to the target action
  • Responsive layout tested on phones: most visitors arrive from mobile, so the site has to work well there first
  • A technical foundation for search: correct headings, markup, a sitemap, load speed, so the pages are able to rank
  • An admin area where you change texts, products, and contact details yourself, without going to a developer
  • Domain, hosting, and analytics registered in your name: the access is yours from day one rather than handed over at the end
  • Handover under an acceptance act and a 30-calendar-day warranty on the work performed
Process steps

Transparent stages with approval at every step

  1. Reviewing the task

    1–3 days

    We find out where visitors will come from and what they need to do on the site. That determines the type: sometimes a landing page is enough instead of a corporate site, and it's better to learn that before paying than after.

  2. Structure and prototype

    3–7 days

    We draw up the list of pages and show a layout of the key screens. Changing the structure at this stage costs a conversation; after the layout is coded, it costs a rebuild. That's why we spend longer here than is usual.

  3. Design and front-end development

    depends on scope

    We create the design, get it approved, build a responsive layout, and test it on real devices. Along the way we lay the technical foundation for search, since doing it right away is cheaper than adding it later.

  4. Content, launch, and handover

    2–5 days

    We deploy to your hosting, connect analytics, check the forms and speed, and hand over access. The 30-calendar-day warranty starts on the day the acceptance act is signed.

When this service isn't right

What's not included — so there are no surprises at delivery

  • Guaranteed search rankings: a site can be built technically right, but search results depend on competitors and algorithms we don't control
  • Promises about the number of inquiries: the site affects whether a person reaches the form, not whether they're looking for your product in the first place
  • Writing about things we don't know: you provide the facts about your product and processes, and we're responsible for the form and structure
  • Filling the catalog with products and photos unless agreed separately: the scope of that work only becomes clear after we see your files
  • Timelines named before reviewing the task: a business card site and a multilingual catalog are described in the same words from the outside
FAQ

Most frequently asked questions — with concrete answers

Do I need a landing page or a corporate website?

It depends on where your traffic comes from. If it's ads for a single offer, a landing page: one page, one action, nothing extra. If people come from search with different queries and the company needs to be presented in full, a corporate website with sections. The most common mistake is ordering something big where one page would have done, and we say that plainly during the review.

How is a catalog site different from an online store?

Whether there's a cart and online payment. A catalog presents products and leads to a call or an inquiry, which is how manufacturers, distributors, and real estate businesses work. A store takes the visitor all the way to paying online, and that's a different build: order statuses, shipping, payment systems. If a manager closes the sale anyway, a cart is usually unnecessary.

Can my existing site be reworked instead of building a new one?

Often, yes, and it costs less. If the structure is sound and the problem is only the look or the speed, a redesign or performance work solves it without starting from scratch. But the opposite happens too: the code is in such a state that edits cost more than a new site. Which case is yours becomes clear after we look, as part of the free review.

Who writes the texts?

We handle the structure, headings, and wording; you provide the facts: what exactly you make, what sets you apart, what your terms are. We won't invent advantages for you. Texts like that are obvious right away and don't survive the first phone call. If the facts aren't there, we gather them by asking questions at the start of the project.

Will the site show up in Google?

Technically, we do everything needed for the pages to be able to rank: correct headings, markup, a sitemap, speed. But nobody can guarantee rankings; they depend on competition for each specific query. Promotion after launch is separate work, and it makes sense to start once the site has something worth promoting.

How long does development take?

A business card site takes a few weeks; a multilingual catalog with filters takes months. We give the timeline in business days after reviewing the task and count it from the moment we have access and materials rather than from the contract date: without texts and photos, work stops no matter how many people are on the project.

What happens if we want to change contractors?

You take the site and keep going. The domain, hosting, repository, and analytics are in your name from day one, and the property rights to the code and design transfer to you after full payment. None of it lives on our accounts. Otherwise your choice would only exist on paper.

What does turnkey website development include?

For us, turnkey means we take the site from the task review all the way to launch: structure and prototype, design, layout for phones and desktops, an admin area, forms whose inquiries actually arrive, correct headings, a sitemap and markup, and deployment to your hosting and domain. Texts, photos, the domain and hosting, promotion, and advertising are paid separately and discussed in advance. We fix the boundary in the contract before we start, so that "turnkey" means the same thing to you and to us.

Why not build the site myself on Tilda or WordPress?

Sometimes that's the right call: for a simple page with a single offer, a website builder is an honest and inexpensive route, and we'll say so during the review. The limits show up later. On a builder, the site lives by the platform's rules: control over code, speed, and markup is limited, and you can't move away without rebuilding. WordPress is more flexible, but without updates and plugin maintenance it quickly becomes a target for automated attacks. We work with both WordPress and custom development, and the choice depends on what the site needs to do a year from now.

Who designs the site structure, and why does it come before design?

We create the structure based on the task review and on how people search for your service or products. It answers two questions: which pages are needed, and how a visitor moves between them. It comes before design because moving a section in a diagram takes a minute, while in a finished site it means reworking templates and redirecting URLs. If the site is meant to bring people in from search, the structure is built from search queries: a separate page for each service or product group that people search for on its own.
