Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Thinking about a professionally built website and wondering about pricing, what is included or ongoing care? Here are the key answers for self-employed professionals, freelancers and small businesses - clearly explained, with links to the details when you need them.
Website Pricing and Care
How much does a professional website cost at Velvionix?
A custom-built website starts at EUR 499 as a one-off fee. Ongoing care and hosting start at EUR 29 per month. We agree the scope and fixed project price before work begins. Prices are for business customers, plus VAT where applicable.
What is included in the website starting price?
You receive a custom-designed, mobile-friendly website with a homepage and up to four compact subpages. The legal notice and privacy policy pages are included at no extra charge. Technical checks, a preview, launch and connecting your domain are also part of the described scope.
Do I have to choose a fixed website package?
No. The website foundation gives you a clear starting point. You can add pages, languages, a contact form or special visuals to suit your business. Additional work is quoted upfront and carried out only after your approval.
What happens to my website after launch?
After launch, we look after the day-to-day operation, technical upkeep, security measures and backups of your Velvionix website. Smaller updates are included within the agreed basic scope. Regular content work and larger changes can be arranged separately. Website care starts with a twelve-month term, billed twelve months in advance. You will find the details on our care and pricing pages.
Website Creation and Working Together
How is a Velvionix website different from a website builder?
We build your website from the ground up around your business, with a clear structure, individual design and sound technical foundations. You do not have to choose a ready-made template or maintain a website builder yourself. Your website can be extended as your needs grow.
Can you rebuild my existing website?
Yes. We create a new website and can reuse suitable existing text, images and information where agreed. We do not maintain an existing WordPress, CMS or website-builder site within its old system.
Do I need to have all my text and images ready?
No. Tell us about your services, customers and goals. We develop a suitable structure and turn your existing notes or draft text into clearer website content. Images and a logo are helpful if you have them, but you do not need them to get started.
How do we get started, and when can my website go live?
We start with a free initial conversation, agree the scope and provide a fixed-price quote. You see and approve your website before it goes live. A compact site can launch in around two weeks if we receive the information and feedback we need promptly. We work remotely in German or English.
Can I keep my existing domain?
Yes. Your domain stays in your own account. We connect it to your new website at launch. If you do not have a domain yet, we can help you choose and purchase one; you buy it through a provider of your choice.
Extras and Third-Party Services
Can I add more features to my website later?
Yes. You can commission extra pages and languages, contact forms, a blog, custom visuals, animation or small internal web features as separate additions. You decide what makes sense now and what can wait until later.
Can you connect booking tools, newsletters or other specialist services?
Yes, provided the service supports a suitable link or embedding option. We can link to an existing service or add an embedding option supported by its provider as a separately agreed website feature. You book and pay for the external service directly with that provider.
Visibility and Advertising
Can Velvionix help my website appear on Google and in AI search?
Yes. Clear service information, a well-organised page structure and suitable technical signals provide the foundation. How Google or AI search systems display your website also depends on factors outside our control. We cannot guarantee particular rankings or mentions.
Can I check my existing website for free?
Yes. Our free website and SEO quick check highlights technical and search-related findings for one public URL. No sign-up is required. It offers initial clues, not a complete assessment of your entire website.
Do you also help with Google Ads and Google Business Profile?
Yes, for clients whose websites were built by Velvionix and remain under our care. Access to our interactive practical guide is included in ongoing care. Personal consultations, including help setting up your first Google Ads campaign, can be booked separately. You keep control of your own Google account.
Have a Website Project in Mind?
Tell us a little about your business and what you have in mind. In a free initial conversation, we can work out a sensible starting point and which extras would suit your plans.
