If you can't find the answer you're looking for, please
What is StackPug?
StackPug is a web design service that creates clean, affordable websites for local businesses. The focus is on simple design, reliability, and making sure your business looks professional online.
What services do you offer?
We offer custom website design, styling, and development. We can build anything from a simple landing page to a larger multi-page site. We also provide ongoing maintenance and support.
Why not just use social media like Facebook/Instagram?
Facebook and Instagram can change their algorithm overnight — and suddenly the posts your customers used to see stop reaching them. You don't own your audience on social media. You're borrowing it.
Accounts get hacked, suspended, or restricted with no warning and no appeal. If that happens, your business disappears from the internet instantly.
A website is yours. No algorithm decides who sees it. No platform can take it away.
What is a landing page?
A landing page is a single-page website designed to introduce your business or promote a specific service. It usually includes key information and a clear call-to-action such as contacting you or requesting a quote.
What is SEO?
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation. It helps your website appear in search results when people search for businesses like yours on Google.
How long does it take to build a website?
A landing page usually takes about one week. Larger websites with multiple pages typically take two to four weeks depending on complexity.
Do I need hosting?
Yes. Hosting stores your website on the internet so people can access it. We can help you choose hosting and connect your domain if needed.
Will my website work on phones?
Yes. All StackPug websites are fully responsive, meaning they work smoothly on phones, tablets and desktop computers.
Can I update my website later?
Yes. You can request updates at any time, or choose a maintenance package for regular updates and support.
Do you offer custom design?
Yes. We can create a custom design tailored to your business and branding. We also offer pre-designed templates for a more affordable option.
Why not just use a site builder like Wix or Squarespace?
While site builders are convenient, they often come with limitations such as pre-designed templates, restricted customization options, and potential issues with search engine optimization. A custom-built website offers more control, better performance, and a unique design that reflects your brand.
Do you offer maintenance and support?
Yes. Maintenance packages include small updates, improvements, and general support to keep your website running smoothly.
Do you offer SEO services?
Basic SEO is included with most websites to help search engines understand your site. Additional optimisation can be discussed depending on your goals.
