WEBSITE DESIGN

The cost of website design will vary depending on your needs, the complexity of the project, and your desired functionality.

It is important to understand that the cheapest is never the best when it comes to website design and development. You need to ensure your team is highly qualified and knows what they are doing so your website isn’t built with shoddy code, won’t fall over, be hacked or leave your business vulnerable.

A new website for a small business can cost somewhere in the vicinity of $8,000 to $20,000. For a small to medium sized corporate entity you will be looking at anywhere from $20,000 to $100,000.

Mettro offers flexible and affordable web design services that are right for your budget. We would love to chat to you about your project and provide you with some obligation-free costings.

You don’t have to be knowledgeable in website development but we will explain the basics of the process just so that you know what to expect as we go along with the project.

We work in partnership with our clients. During the web build, we will need your involvement, more at some points than others. We will need your input when it comes to your purpose, goals, target audience, etc. We will also need your approval for the structure, layout, and other things.

But we will spare you from all the techspeak! We have a fantastic client-facing team with skills in translating technical jargon into plain English so you will always understand what is happening and what you need to do.

Yes. You can edit your content through the content management system the website is built upon. We always take into account your teams’ technical literacy when developing a website so we can ensure that we will create the most fit-for-purpose back-end system that is easy to use and does what you need it to do.

This will depend on the complexity of the project. But on average, the turnaround time is around four to six weeks for smaller projects and eight to twelve weeks for larger ones.

The websites we build are generally quite bespoke. So for every project, we build a comprehensive timeline and schedule with our clients before we get started. We make sure all of our team and our client’s team understand what they need to do and when they need to be completed. To keep on track, we have weekly project management meetings and augment these with daily updates when necessary.

Any new website redevelopment can impact your SEO greatly. When we start our projects we work with our clients to build a plan of attack that includes SEO. This may include an audit of your existing site and it can also include updates to your optimisation levels.

We highly recommend digital marketing for your website as it can make a huge difference to your bottom line. We offer affordable digital marketing solutions to help you to reach your dream customers and make them your loyal customers.

WordPress is the most popular and well-supported content management system, and for good reasons. It can be used to create any type of website and is very customisable and easy to use. You don’t need to know programming to write and edit posts and pages, upload and edit photos, install plugins and do other tasks.

Mettro offers WordPress development services for businesses that need the best digital solutions for their business problems.

We are highly experienced and can do custom integrations with third party CRMs like ActiveCampaign, MailChimp, Campaign Monitor, ConvertKit, Zoho and Hubspot.

Yes, we can integrate your current email management system into your website. We can do this via plugins that are easily installed or if you are using a custom EMS work directly with your supplier and their API. We’ve even built our own API’s to connect with older systems.

Yes, we can revamp your WordPress website. We love to maximise your investment to ensure you get the biggest bang for your buck. But there are some caveats! Some WordPress websites have not been developed with the same rigorous code and processes that we use and some are simply very old and outdated. If your website is built on an unstable framework or is going to be difficult to update, we may recommend a redevelopment so you get the best website your business and your clients deserve.

We offer training on how to use the content management system of your website so that you can update your site as needed.

We offer support and maintenance packages as part of our services. We can help you with monitoring your websites and keeping everything up to date and secure. You can find out more here.

If you have a big website with a lot of traffic and you want a really fast, optimised server for your website, then we can tailor a solution for you. Having a host that is actively involved in the website build ensures the outcomes are more holistic and provides the best possible end customer experience for everyone.
