Frequently Asked Q’s

How much does a website cost?

How long is a piece of ‘string’? Joking, but it does depend on your requirements. A simple one-pager usually costs less than a 10-page website… but the one-pager might have really complex animations and layouts that need more work than the behemoth 10-pager. Also, are we doing development, or also branding and design? That’s why each project has to be estimated separately.

How long does a website project usually take?

This one’s less ‘it-dependey' to answer. Development projects usually take 3-6 weeks, while design + development usually take 6-12 weeks. Mind you that noTalk is a development-first agency. We have the expertise and people to deliver great design and branding, but offer these services on a case by case basis. ‘Tis what it is.

What makes you different from others?

In one sentence? The dev(il) in the details. We are extremely detailed-oriented and work tirelessly to iron out every inconsistency, from tiny gradient changes to half-pixel letter spacings. Clients seem to dig this approach, so we keep on approaching.

I know someone who can do it cheaper. Why would I hire you?

There’s a cousin’s neighbor’s friend in every line of business — who can do it cheaper, and hey, not that shabby either. But in development, “saving” today often means you’ll waste a lot of time and energy on an end result that doesn’t meet your requirements 🕊 and causes maintenance madness down the line. In fact, we’ve had many clients turn our budget down, Craigslist away, and then come back asking us to redo their poorly developed website.

Development

What tools do you use for development and why?

We only use Webflow. Enriched, of course, with custom JavaScript, Zapier/API integrations, Lottie animations — every trick in the cookbook. We stick to the ‘flow because it practically guarantees our clients’ satisfaction. It’s the most flexible platform on the market, and enables us to create websites that are 1:1 identical (pixel-perfect) to design. No one is happier than a designer when they see their work come to life at the highest possible level.

Is Webflow right for me?

Statistically speaking? Heck to the yes. We’ve had a lot of projects on our plate, and Webflow has been the clear winner for the vast majority of our clients. Whenever it wasn’t, we would honestly say so and recommend more suitable platforms (and developers). For example, as of yet Webflow is famously not the best choice for eCommerce. If you’re unsure, book a call and learn whether Webflow is your best bet.

We need a bunch of integrations and custom features. Are you game?

We were born trained-over-many-years ready! We can add any integrations and custom code to your Webflow website — think complex animations, custom filters, Hubspot forms, all Zapier integrations, custom-coded calculators, working with APIs etc... You name it, we do it.

I want a website that’s super fast, easy for our marketing team, and scalable in the future

Hah, looks like you described Webflow to the letter. Learn more about why Webflow is exactly what you’re after.

Can you build me a Wordpress, Wix etc. website?

No luck, cap. While we appreciate their name starting with ‘W’, we work with Webflow exclusively. Learn more in our WordPress comparison.

process

I already have a Webflow website. Can you hop in and build me just one page?

Surprising as it may sound, we usually decline requests like this. Not because we don’t want to help out, but because we often come across poorly developed projects where it would take less time to start from scratch than continue where the previous developer left off. With that said, show us your website! We’ll make the code talk and give you an honest opinion in no time.

What tools do you use for communication and project management?

For comms we often use Slack, Telegram and email, and are down to mix ‘em and match ‘em to your preference. For project management we use Asana, Notion, Trello, Jira etc. at a high professional level. Ticket away — we’ll fit right in.

Are you willing to take meetings 3 times a week?

With a name like ‘noTalk’, could we stay on brand if we did a lot of meetings? Thought so. In all seriousness, we’re down to meet when there’s a need, but we’ve found frequent meetings to be unproductive for you and us alike. We’re responsible and responsive, and will send progress reports on a weekly basis, but regular meetings are a no-no.

Would you suggest any tool for reviewing a website?

Yes! We’re big fans of marker.io, which lets you add comments directly on live pages. It saves a lot of time, back and forth, and risk of misunderstanding. Like, if you email us to change ahead line that exists on multiple pages, we don’t have to email you back to ask which page that is.

support

Do you provide support after launch?

A-right we do. We provide after-launch support for all websites that are built by our team. That includes onboarding & training for your people, after-launch QA, and help with things you might need.

Will you teach me how to use Webflow for managing content on the website?

Yes, upon completion we shoot a Loom video in which we show how to create new CMS items such as blog posts, case studies, careers page entries etc, or simply how to replace texts and images on static pages. Easy as cake.

What if I find a bug after completing the payment?

You’re all good. If you find a bug, required fix, or oversight on our part even several months after payment, we will fix it at no additional cost. Think of us as your trusty bug-smashing Cessna 152. This does not apply to creating new functionalities or building new pages.

Will Webflow generate a lot of messy code?

It’s an understandable worry. Fortunately, you’ve picked one of the most spaghetti-free platforms there is. Unlike WordPress template fests, Webflow projects start as blank slates, and a good developer will keep the code minimal and squeaky clean. We use the Finsweet Client-First framework to keep the code organized, clean, maintainable andscalable. That way even if you decide not to continue working with us in thefuture, someone who knows Client-first can easily jump in and keep up the goodwork.
