Web Design FAQs

What is the difference between web design and web development?

Web design and web development are two essential parts of building a website. Web design is all about making the site look good and easy to use for visitors. It focuses on the appearance, colours, and layout to create an appealing and user-friendly experience. On the other hand, web development is about making the site actually work. Developers use code and programming to build the functionality of the website so that users can interact with it smoothly. Essentially, web design is about how the site looks, and web development is about how it works. Both are crucial to create a great website! At VOiD we have people highly skilled in both of these areas and our process is that any new web pages/websites are designed first and then built.

How long does it typically take to design and develop a website?

The time it takes to design and develop a website can vary depending on several factors. Generally, it can take anywhere from a four to six weeks period to a few months to complete a website depending on its scale. The timeline depends on the complexity of the site, the number of pages, the features you want to include, and the collaboration between ourselves and the client. Smaller and simpler websites can be done more quickly, while larger or more complex online projects might require more time. It's essential to have a clear plan and open communication with us when working on your website projects.

Do I need to have technical skills or knowledge to maintain and update my website?

The short answer is no, you do not need technical skills and knowledge to maintain and update your website. If you want to manage and maintain the site yourself we will supply training and guidance on how to do the basics. If you don’t have the time or appetite to take on these tasks yourself we offer Web Maintenance services to support you. It is essential that you have a plan to maintain the website including applying updates, securing your website, website back-ups and hacker protection.

Can you help with website hosting and domain registration?
