Questions & Answers
How much does a Custom Website Cost Per Month?
Custom websites run about the same price as a host CMS website depending on your bandwidth, CPU and Data Storage requirements. You can typically expect to spend $20-$50 per month on a Website and Database Server.
Who do I pay for my store?
During our requirements gathering phase we will discus with you the various hosting and payment options. You are welcome to manage your own hosting accounts when hiring Stackweb to build you a new website. We do not require that you host with us.
What do I need to get started?
Before getting started with a development project it is a good idea to know what you want to share and have that content prepared and available for the service provider on the day the contract is signed.
What to prepare:
- High Quality Photos/Videos

How quickly will you have a draft prepared for me to see?
The design and development phase typically moves quickly. Depending on which package you are interested in you can expect to see a preview of your new website within the fist 7 days.
How do the revisions work?
During the development phase and once the customization of the theme colors, logos, and banners have been applied you will be given a chance to review the design.
At that time, should you not like any of the design aspects, you may submit an initial change request to apply new requirements to the projects life cycle before the project continues.
After those initial requirements have been changed, any changes there after will count towards a revision.
Can I use Shopify for a business website and/or blog?
