Frequently asked questions

A few things clients often ask before we begin

How long does a website or logo project usually take?

Timelines depend on the size of the project, how quickly content is ready and how many design elements are needed. Small logo projects can be quicker, while websites usually need more planning, design and refinement.

Do I need my own domain and hosting before we start?

No. If you already have them, that is helpful, but if not, I can guide you through what you need so the technical side feels clear and manageable.

What should I prepare before working with you?

Any existing logo files, photos, brand colours, website links, written content and examples of styles you like are useful. If you are not sure what to prepare, I can send a short design brief questionnaire.

Do you offer support after a website is launched?

Yes. I can help with small updates, seasonal visuals, website changes and ongoing design support so your brand stays consistent after launch.
