How you edit your website after launch
A site changes once it is live: new prices, new photos, a new service. There are two ways to handle that, and you choose before the project starts.
A simple editor
If you will change text, images, prices or listings often, a simple content editor can be included. It is written into the proposal, so it is part of the fixed price rather than an extra later.
It is set up around the things you actually change, such as a price list, a menu, a gallery or opening hours.
Send the change instead
If changes are occasional, you may not need an editor at all. You send what you want changed and it is made for you, priced per job and quoted before it is done.
Many small businesses prefer this: nothing new to learn, and the site keeps looking the way it was designed.
Which one to choose
A salon that changes prices every season, or a maker who adds new pieces every month, is usually better off with the editor. A photographer who updates the portfolio twice a year usually is not.
You will know which applies to your site before the project starts, and the walkthrough at handover covers whichever you choose.
Questions about editing
- Can I add an editor later?
- Yes, quoted like any other change. It is simpler to plan from the start, which is why the question comes up before the proposal.
- Who makes changes if I do not have an editor?
- The studio does. Each change is priced per job and quoted before it is made.
- Do I have to sign a support contract?
- No. There is no retainer. Regular help is available on terms agreed in writing if you want it.
