Your Questions, Our Answers

Are you thinking about creating your visual identity, developing your online presence, or outsourcing certain administrative tasks?

Here you’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our branding, web design, SEO, and administrative support services.

Web Design & Website Development

What is the difference between a showcase website and an e-commerce website?

A showcase website presents your business, services, portfolio and contact details. Its main purpose is to increase your online visibility and generate enquiries or quote requests.

An e-commerce website allows you to sell products or services directly online. It typically includes a product catalogue, shopping cart, online payment methods and an order management system.

The right choice depends on your goals, your business activity and how you want to grow your business.

Why does my business need a website?

A professional website allows your business to be visible online, showcase its services and build credibility with customers. It acts as a digital storefront accessible 24/7, allowing visitors to discover your business, explore your services and contact you at any time.

It is also an essential tool for improving your visibility on Google, attracting new customers and standing out from the competition.

What should I prepare before starting my website project?

Before getting started, it is helpful to gather a few elements to make the development of your website easier:

  • A presentation of your business and its activities.

  • A description of your services or products.

  • Your logo and brand identity, if you have one.

  • Photos and illustrations relevant to your business.

  • Your contact details and information.

  • Any preferences regarding design and functionality.

Don’t worry if you don’t have everything ready! We can guide you through preparing and organizing your content to create a website that reflects your brand and meets your goals.

How much does it cost to create a professional website?

The cost of a website depends on several factors: the type of website, the number of pages, the desired features, the level of customization and your business’s specific needs.

A simple showcase website does not require the same amount of work as an e-commerce store or a website with advanced features.

At Expression Digitale, every project is tailored to your needs, with a personalized proposal and a quote adapted to your requirements and budget. Contact us to discuss your project and receive an estimate.

Can I edit my website content myself after it has been created?

Yes! Websites built with WordPress allow you to manage and edit many elements yourself, including text, images, blog posts, products and other content.

Once your website is delivered, you will have access to its administration dashboard. This allows you to update your content without having to rely on a developer every time.

We can also guide you through using your website so you can manage everyday updates independently.

How long does it take to build a website?
The development time depends on the complexity of the project, the number of pages, the required features and the availability of the necessary content.

As a general guideline:

  • Showcase website: approximately 2 to 4 weeks.

  • More comprehensive website: approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

  • E-commerce website: approximately 5 to 8 weeks, or longer depending on the required features.

These timeframes are estimates and may vary depending on the project. Approval at each stage and the delivery of text, images and other content also influence the overall timeline.

Is it possible to modernize or redesign an existing website?

Absolutely! Starting from scratch is not always necessary to improve a website.

We can work on an existing website to modernize its design, improve navigation, optimize its mobile display, update its content or strengthen its search engine optimization (SEO).

Depending on the website’s technical condition and your goals, we can offer a partial or complete redesign to give it a fresh new look and better meet your business needs.

Will my website be mobile- and tablet-friendly?

Yes! All the websites we design are built to be responsive, meaning they adapt to different screen sizes, including computers, tablets and smartphones.

The layout, images, text and navigation elements are adjusted to provide a smooth and intuitive browsing experience, regardless of the device being used.

A mobile-friendly website is also important for Google search rankings and the overall user experience.

Can I choose my own web hosting provider and domain name?

Yes! You are free to choose your own web hosting provider and domain name. We mainly work with Infomaniak, GoDaddy and Hostinger, which we know well and can recommend based on your needs.

If you already have a hosting plan with another provider, we can also work with it, provided it is technically compatible with your project.

However, our technical support for hosting and server-related issues is limited to the platforms we are familiar with. If an issue arises with a third-party hosting provider, you will need to contact their technical support team directly. We cannot guarantee the resolution of problems related to their infrastructure or services.

E-commerce and Online Stores

How do I create an online store to sell my products?

Creating an online store allows you to showcase your products and sell them directly on the Internet, without being limited to a physical retail location.

At Expression Digitale, we design customized e-commerce stores using WordPress and WooCommerce. We set up a product catalogue, detailed product pages, a shopping cart, an order process and the features needed to manage your business.

Each store is designed around your products, your business goals and your target customers to provide a solution tailored to your business.

Is it possible to integrate online payment methods?

Yes! An online store can integrate different secure payment methods to allow your customers to pay for their purchases directly on your website.

Depending on your country, business activity and available solutions, you can offer credit or debit card payments, PayPal or other compatible payment providers.

We can help you choose and configure the payment solution best suited to your online store. Transaction fees and any subscription fees charged by payment providers remain your responsibility.

Can I manage my own products, inventory and orders?
Yes! The online stores we develop with WooCommerce include an administration dashboard that allows you to manage your business independently.

You can:

  • Add, edit or delete products.

  • Update product descriptions, photos and prices.

  • Manage product references and available stock.

  • Track orders and their status.

  • View information related to your customers’ purchases.

We can also guide you through using your online store so you can easily manage your sales on a day-to-day basis.

Can I offer different shipping and delivery methods?
Yes! It is possible to configure several shipping and delivery methods according to your needs and geographical area.

You can offer options such as:

  • Home delivery.

  • In-store or local pickup.

  • Fixed shipping rates or rates calculated according to the weight and order value.

  • Different delivery zones and conditions.

Depending on the carrier you choose and the features required, specific integrations can also be implemented to automate shipping cost calculations or parcel tracking.

Any subscriptions and fees associated with third-party delivery services are not included in the website development cost.

Is it possible to develop an online store with a large product catalogue?

Yes! WooCommerce allows you to create online stores with large product catalogues containing numerous products, categories and product references.

You can also implement search and filtering features to help your customers quickly find the items they are looking for.

For more complex catalogues, we can include specific features such as searches by product reference, filters by product specifications, product compatibility or category-based organization.

The store’s structure is designed around your product volume, management requirements and the shopping experience you want to offer your customers.

The confidentiality of your documents and information is an essential part of our collaboration.

Files provided as part of an assignment are used solely to carry out the agreed tasks. We take care to restrict access, work with diligence and never share your information with third parties without authorization.
