You already have a website. Except it is from 2018, it reads badly on the phone, and above all — it brings you nothing. Redoing it is one of the requests we receive most often, and it always arrives with the same two questions: how much does it cost? and what survives from the old one?
The signs it is time
You do not redo a website because the design is “old”: you redo it when it stops working. The typical signs: it looks bad on the phone (where more than half of visits now come from); you do not appear on Google even searching your own name; contents have been frozen for years because updating them is an ordeal; or the website is hostage to someone — the vanished agency, the cousin who does not answer, the mysterious subscription.
What it costs, honestly
Redoing a website costs roughly as much as making a new one of the same ambition: €800 to €2,000 for a tailored presentation site, more for projects with bookings, reserved areas or catalogues. The “old website” is not a discount — but it is not a cost either: it is a mine of information on what worked and what did not.
What always survives: the copy that works, the good photos, the email address, and — this is crucial — the history on Google. The switch must be made so that every old page walks visitors (and Google) to the corresponding new one, without ever disappearing. Done badly, a redesign can erase years of positioning in a week: it is the most expensive and most invisible mistake of all.
The questions to ask whoever redoes it
Three questions that instantly unmask the wrong supplier: “Does the domain stay registered to me?” (if they hesitate, run). “What happens to my Google positions?” (if they do not mention redirects, they cannot do it). “Can I see something before signing?” (if the answer is no, ask yourself why).
To the third question we answer with our way of working: the first draft of your new website is free, ready within days, built with your real contents. You compare it with the site you have and decide with your eyes. The rest — clear quote, separate items, a website you own — is on the service page.
