How long will it take me to build a website?
This is completely up to you. On their own, many of our customers have a fully functional web presence together and online within 5 hours; others have been them over the course of a few weeks or even months.
While some of our customers make updates to their web sites on a daily basis, others do so only seasonally. We recommend that you look at your web site as an ongoing project that acts as one of your most aggressive salespeople – 24/7/365.

If I already have a web site and would like to maintain the same design, can I still use Web4U?
Yes, you can get in contact us and Web4U’s senior design team will replicate your current design - and even add some upgraded graphics if necessary - and then arrange to have it plugged into our system.
In terms of cost, this is usually looked at on an individual basis as the size and scope of web sites may vary. We can be reached for a free estimate.

Can I use my own web address (or domain name) with my Web4U site, or do I have to use a web address that includes Web4U?
Both options are available to you. We strongly recommend your own domain name (for example, www.mycompany.co.uk) as it looks much more professional and will be easier to remember for your customers (as opposed to mycompany.Web4U.co.uk).You simply have to have your domain name point to our servers and we take care of the rest (we can help you manage this).
If you don’t have a domain name however, you can still have a domain set up through us temporarily or as long as you need (for example, mycompany.Web4U.co.uk).

If I already have a web site and would like to maintain the same design, can I still use Web4U?
Yes. Depending on what’s required, Web4U’s expert design team can modify your web site or duplicate it to work with our system.
Because there are so many variables to take into account we charge an hourly fee based on what is required. In many cases, our award-winning design team will actually upgrade your design and improve its functionality in order to augment your business’ presentation. Before we actually begin work, we provide you with a firm cost so you can budget accordingly.
It is also possible to roll this additional cost into easy-to-manage monthly payments (as opposed to lump sum fee).
