How much does a website cost?

Our websites start at ₱3,000 for a single-page business site and go up depending on complexity. E-commerce sites start at ₱7,000, and custom business systems start at ₱8,000. We always provide a clear quote before starting any work — no surprises.

How long does it take to build a website?

A simple business website typically takes 5–7 working days. More complex projects like e-commerce sites or custom systems take 2–4 weeks. We provide a timeline estimate during your free consultation.

Do you offer ongoing support after launch?

Yes! All our plans include post-launch support (30–60 days depending on the plan). After that, we offer affordable monthly maintenance packages or you can reach out anytime for one-time fixes and updates.

What is a Data Protection Officer (DPO) service?

As a certified DPO, we help your business comply with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) and international data protection standards. This includes creating privacy policies, conducting data audits, handling compliance documentation, and serving as your outsourced DPO.

Do I need to be in the Philippines to work with you?

Not at all! We work with clients worldwide. Everything is handled online — consultations, project updates, file sharing, and support. We use our client portal so you can track progress from anywhere.

Can I see my project progress while it's being built?

Absolutely. Every client gets access to our Client Portal where you can view project status, track tasks, see invoices, and sign agreements. You'll always know exactly where your project stands.

What technologies do you use?

We primarily build with Next.js, React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS for websites and web applications. For databases, we use Supabase (PostgreSQL). All our solutions are modern, fast, and mobile-responsive.

Is the free consultation really free?

Yes, completely free with no obligation. We'll discuss your needs, recommend solutions, and give you a clear quote. You decide if you want to proceed — no pressure, no hidden fees.

Do you accept international payments?

We're currently setting up international payment options including Stripe and PayPal. For now, we can arrange payment via bank transfer. Contact us and we'll work out the best option for you.

What if I need changes after the project is delivered?

Minor revisions are included during and after the build phase. For larger changes or new features after launch, we provide a quote based on the scope of work. Our clients often come back for ongoing improvements as their business grows.

How to Migrate From a Facebook Page to a Real Website…

Most Philippine businesses start on Facebook because it is free, familiar, and easy. At some point — usually around the moment Facebook reach mysteriously drops or you cannot find old customer messages — the limitations bite hard.

The right move is to add a real website (not replace Facebook). But the migration period is fragile. Customers used to messaging you on Messenger get confused. Old links to your Page break. Algorithmic reach dips during the transition.

Here is the 30-day playbook to migrate cleanly.

Week 1 — Build the Bridge, Not the Replacement

The biggest mistake businesses make: announcing "we have a new website, stop using Facebook." That confuses customers and abandons your existing audience.

Instead, position the website as an extension. The Facebook Page stays alive. The website becomes the primary hub.

Week 1 Actions

Launch your website
Put your website URL in your Facebook Page's About section
Update the Page header/cover image to mention the new website
Pin a Page post introducing the website
Add a clear "Visit Website" call-to-action button on the Page

Goal of Week 1: existing Facebook followers know about the website. No customer loses access to you.

Week 2 — Update External Mentions

Every place that has your old "facebook.com/yourbusiness" link should be updated to your new website URL.

Where to Update

Google Business Profile (replace FB URL with website URL)
Business cards (next print run)
Email signatures (immediately)
Invoice and proposal footers
Supplier and vendor records
Lazada, Shopee, Foodpanda profile bios
Other directory listings (Yellow Pages PH, etc.)

This step alone usually adds 30-50% to website traffic within 2 weeks.

Week 3 — Migrate the Customer Journey

Now move the actual customer touchpoints from Facebook to the website. The goal is to make the website easier and more capable than Messenger for the things customers do most:

For Service Businesses

Add a contact/inquiry form to your website (better than Messenger DMs)
Add a booking system (Calendly free works for solo, custom for teams)
Add a "Services" or "Pricing" page with detail you cannot fit on Facebook
Keep Messenger available — but the website becomes the canonical home

For Product Businesses

Add a product catalog with full descriptions
Add a shopping cart and checkout (Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom)
Set up online payment (PayMongo, GCash, PayPal)
Keep Facebook for engagement and discovery, website for transactions

For Both

Add an "About Us" page with photos, history, team
Add testimonials/reviews section
Add a blog or articles section for SEO and authority

Week 4 — Set Up the Loop

Facebook keeps doing what Facebook is good at: discovery, community, social proof. The website keeps doing what websites do: depth, conversion, search visibility. The loop ties them together.

The Sustainable Loop

New article on website → share to Facebook Page
New product on website → announcement post on Facebook
New customer review on website → Facebook post showcasing it
Customer asks question on Facebook → direct them to relevant page on website
Customer messages Messenger → website FAQ link saves your reply time

Tools that help:

Buffer (free up to 3 channels) — schedule cross-posts
Meta Business Suite — manages FB+IG posts in one place
IFTTT or Make.com — auto-share new blog posts to Facebook

Common Migration Mistakes

Mistake 1 — Abandoning Facebook Entirely

The biggest one. Existing customers who knew you only via Facebook do not magically find your website. Maintain Facebook. Add the website.

Mistake 2 — Not Setting Up Web Forms Before Launch

If customers visit your website and there is no clear way to contact you (no form, no clear phone, no booking link), they leave. Have working contact paths from Day 1.

Mistake 3 — Forgetting to Verify the Domain

Get your Google Business Profile and Search Console set up immediately with your new website. SEO gains take time to compound — start the clock.

Mistake 4 — Letting Facebook Page Go Stale During the Build

Many businesses get excited about the website and let the Facebook Page collapse. Algorithm punishes this. Maintain posting cadence throughout the migration.

Mistake 5 — Pointing facebook.com/yourbusiness Customers to Wrong URL

Test every redirect. Verify Page metadata. Make sure the URLs you put in your Facebook About are correct (typo-free).

What to Keep on Facebook Forever

Even after the website is your primary hub, Facebook keeps doing things the website cannot:

Real-time customer engagement (comments, reactions)
Social proof (reviews, recommendations)
Discovery for casual browsing
Local community connection
Live videos and stories
Quick promotional bursts

The right end-state: customers discover you on Facebook, learn about you on the website, transact on the website, and stay engaged via both.

Measuring the Migration Success

Within 90 days, you should see:

30-50% of website traffic coming from Facebook referral
Direct traffic to website growing (people typing the URL or using bookmarks)
Google organic traffic starting to appear (slower, takes 60-180 days)
Facebook Page Insights still showing healthy reach
More structured customer journey (FB → website → inquiry → close)

If website traffic is below 100 visits per week 90 days after launch — your migration paths are broken or your website is not getting promoted. Audit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I stop posting on Facebook?

No. Facebook continues to drive discovery — especially in the Philippines where Facebook usage is among the highest in the world.

Should I delete my Facebook Page after the website launches?

Never. Even if you redirect customers primarily to the website, the Facebook Page remains a discovery channel and trust signal. Maintain it.

Will my Facebook reviews carry over to the website?

Not automatically. But you can screenshot them and feature them on your website's testimonials section (with reviewer permission). Going forward, send happy customers to your Google Business Profile for reviews.

What if I have existing customer messages on Facebook?

Keep them. They are searchable in Messenger and can be referenced later. Going forward, encourage customers to use the website contact form for new inquiries.
