Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a WordPress website?
This very much depends on the type of project. A typical brochure website can take up to 4 weeks from project kick-off to launch, while a complex eCommerce website with multiple API integrations can take from 6 – 12 weeks. Each project is tailored to suit the needs of the customer.
Will my website meet accessibility guidelines?
All website solutions developed by MetaShield comply with WCAG 2.1 AA standards. This ensures that your website will be accessible to visitors with disabilities, including visual & hearing impairments.
Do you offer custom themes or use pre-built ones?
The short answer is we do both. Since the introduction of Full Site Editing (FSE) into WordPress and Block-Based Theme framework, we typically build new sites with a custom FSE Theme. This approach allows us to integrate your brand, style book and design features in a lightweight theme for faster website performance.
Will my website be mobile-friendly and responsive?
All our web solutions are built to be responsive across all screen sizes, from the smallest mobile phone up to large desktop, and everything in between.
Can I edit my website content after it’s launched?
Content Management System (CMS) training will be provided to your team and a document will be included to ensure you have the ability to update the text and image content of your website.
Is SEO included in the web design package?
All pages on your website will be configured to be SEO friendly, including technical SEO (e.g. XML sitemap, optimised images), speed optimization, metadata setup, keyword-friendly URL structures etc.
Do you offer hosting and maintenance services?
Yes – all website solutions developed by MetaShield are hosted in our secure hosting environment once launched. Each website is maintained under our MetaShield SLA services.
Will my website be secure?
Yes – your website will be built with a security first approach and will be maintained by our MetaShield SLA services. All software is maintained monthly, ensuring your website remains secure.
Will my website be compliant with GDPR and other directives?
Yes – your website will be compliant at launch with GDPR and other compliance directives (e.g. ePrivacy) and the website compliance will be maintained as part of the MetaShield SLA monthly service.
Can you redesign my existing WordPress site?
Redesigning an existing WordPress website is quite common across our customers – they like the general design of their current website but they want to tweak it for a new look and feel. We will incorporate more efficient user flows and clearer CTA’s to ensure your website performs at its best.
What’s the cost of a typical WordPress website?
The overall cost of a solution depends greatly on the complexity of a solution, from simple 4-page brochure websites, up to complex eCommerce websites with multiple integrations. Our solutions are designed and priced for businesses of all sizes.
Do you offer API integrations as part of your WordPress solutions?
This is one of our strengths at MetaShield. Some examples of our integrations include CRM’s (HubSpot, Active Campaign, Mailchimp), Gym Management Platforms (Perfect Gym, Legend), multiple Payment Gateways (Stripe, AutiPay, Opayo), and HR Management Systems (Occupop, Assemble, PeopleHR).
What happens if I need help after the site is live?
All the services and solutions developed by MetaShield are supported by our team via our 24/7 Customer Support. This ensures the highest level of quality in everything we develop – we have to live with our own work!
