Questions businesses are asking
Straight answers on cost, visibility, timing and what the work involves.
How much does a business website cost?
Cost depends on content, page count, integrations, migration, accessibility, hosting and support. The proposal should state what is included and who owns each account.
Do we need separate versions for cities across New York?
Use city-specific pages when availability or customer information differs. A single strong New York coverage page can be more useful than repeated pages.
Can the existing domain and email remain in place?
Usually, provided ownership and access are confirmed. Domain, DNS, hosting and email dependencies should be documented before launch.
