Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing is based on scope: number of custom features, integration count, traffic profile, compliance requirements, and ongoing support level. Discovery consults are free - by the end you'll have a clear picture of what your project should cost. Most Large Website projects land between $5,000 and $40,000+ depending on complexity. We'll never quote without scoping.
Initial development typically runs 3-6 months end-to-end. That includes discovery (2-4 weeks), architecture and design (3-6 weeks), build phase (8-16 weeks), testing and integration (2-4 weeks), and deployment + training (1-2 weeks). Smaller-scope Large projects can finish in 2-3 months; complex multi-system platforms can run 6-9 months.
Yes - that's usually the whole point of a Large Website. We integrate with CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, custom), ERPs (NetSuite, SAP, custom), accounting platforms (QuickBooks, Xero), payment processors, identity providers (SSO, SAML, OAuth), email, marketing automation, and any custom internal APIs. We map every integration during discovery.
Yes - sophisticated user management is standard on Large Website. We build custom roles, hierarchical permissions, approval workflows, multi-location staff portals, and audit logs. Common use cases: schools (admin / teacher / parent / student), multi-location businesses (corporate / regional / location), and membership platforms (free / paid tiers / VIP / staff).
Yes. We architect for traffic from day one - CDN, edge caching, load balancing, database read replicas, horizontal scaling, and performance monitoring with auto-scaling triggers. For traffic-sensitive sites (10k+ daily visitors, e-commerce launches, viral events), we run load tests before launch to confirm headroom.
Yes. We support HIPAA-compliant builds (BAAs, encryption, audit logs), SOC 2 readiness, GDPR (cookie consent, data export, right to deletion), and WCAG / ADA accessibility audits. Compliance scope is mapped during discovery - depending on your industry, this can be a major driver of pricing and timeline.
Full team training during handoff - admins, content managers, end-users - including documentation, video tutorials, and live sessions tailored to each role. Ongoing support is custom-quoted: dedicated support channel, priority issue resolution, monthly performance + analytics reports, custom strategy review cadence, and CDN / caching management. See the Webmaster Support Plan Large tier for the baseline.
Yes - most Large Website projects involve some migration: legacy CMS to modern stack, data migration from old databases, SEO ranking preservation, redirect mapping, content audit. We've handled migrations from Drupal, WordPress, Joomla, custom PHP, .NET, Ruby on Rails, and bespoke internal tools. The migration is scoped in discovery.
