Hosting depends on the platform your website is built on.
Platforms like Webflow, Squarespace, and Carrd all include hosting as part of their platform. This means your website, security updates, and performance are managed through the platform itself.
Once your website is ready to launch, we simply connect your domain and activate the appropriate hosting plan for that platform.
Yes. If you don’t already have a domain name, we can help you choose and purchase one through trusted registrars such as GoDaddy.
We can guide you through selecting a domain that fits your brand and ensure it’s set up correctly so it can connect to your website once the design is complete.
If you already own a domain, we can simply connect it to your new website during the launch process.
The first consultation is a free one hour session to help understand what your website will be about.
After going through a consultation session with you, a decision will be made whether the website can be created or not. Also see the answer to question 11 concerning projects Tollinchi Solutions will not create, thank you.
Yes. If your domain is registered with another provider — such as Wix, Squarespace, or GoDaddy — you can still use it for your new website.
In most cases, we simply connect your existing domain to your new website rather than transferring the domain itself. Your domain will remain registered with your current provider, while your website can be built and hosted on platforms like Webflow, Squarespace, or Carrd.
This is done by updating a few DNS settings, which link your domain name to the new website. It’s a standard process, and we guide you through it to ensure everything connects properly.
Yes, you can connect a domain hosted on Wix, Squarespace, Go Daddy, or similar platforms to a Webflow site without transferring the domain registration itself. Webflow is not a domain registrar, meaning it doesn't sell domains, so you don't need to transfer it to them.
In some cases it’s possible, but most website platforms do not support direct migrations between each other. For example, websites built on platforms like Wix or Squarespace cannot be automatically transferred to platforms such as Webflow or Carrd.
Because of this, moving a website from one platform to another typically requires rebuilding the site from scratch on the new platform. This often involves recreating the design, structure, and content within the new system.
In many situations, it’s actually more practical to redesign the website during the move rather than trying to replicate the existing site exactly. This allows us to improve the layout, performance, and overall user experience while building it properly for the new platform.
Before starting any migration or redesign, we review your current website and recommend the best approach based on your goals and the platform your site is currently on.
The timeline for completing a website can vary depending on the scope of the project. Factors such as the complexity of the design, the number of pages, the need for prototyping, and the integration of third-party tools can all affect how long the process takes.
For example, a simple one-page or small business website built on platforms like Carrd or Squarespace may take 1–3 weeks to complete. More custom websites built with Webflow — especially those that include advanced design, animations, or a CMS — may take 3–6 weeks or longer depending on the project requirements.
The timeline can also depend on how quickly content such as text, images, and feedback is provided during the design process.
Before starting any project, we outline a clear timeline so you know what to expect at each stage of the website build.
Yes, I offer ongoing website maintenance and support after your site goes live. This can include updates, bug fixes, content changes, and general assistance to help keep your website running smoothly.
Maintenance services are available for an additional fee, and packages can be tailored depending on the needs of your website and the platform it’s built on, such as Webflow, Squarespace, or Carrd.
If you prefer to manage updates yourself, I can also provide guidance so you feel comfortable making basic changes to your site.
Yes! To build your website, it’s important that you have your own account on the platform your website will be built on. This ensures you retain full control of your website, hosting, billing, and any e-commerce or third-party integrations after launch.
If your website uses other third-party tools or integrations—such as email platforms, analytics, or marketing tools—you may also need accounts for those so we can connect them during the setup process.
Once your account(s) are ready, we can begin designing your site, connect your domain, and configure hosting or e-commerce functionality. Having your own accounts also makes it easier to manage subscriptions, updates, and future changes independently.
We’ll guide you step by step to set up any accounts needed before the design work begins, making the process smooth and stress-free.
The cost of a website depends on factors such as platform, design complexity, number of pages, and any special features or integrations you may need.
We start with a free consultation, which helps us get to know you, your goals, and determine if our services are a good fit for your project. If it’s a match, the next step is a detailed questionnaire that collects all the information we need to scope your project accurately. Once the questionnaire is completed, we’ll provide a personalized proposal that outlines the project plan and total cost.
This ensures that pricing is tailored to your specific needs and that you know exactly what’s included before any work begins.
For most online stores, we build e-commerce websites using Shopify. Shopify is a platform designed specifically for selling online and includes powerful tools for managing products, tracking inventory, processing payments, and handling shipping and orders. It’s a reliable and scalable solution for businesses that want to grow their online store.
While platforms like Webflow, Squarespace, and Carrd can work well for many types of websites, Shopify generally provides the most robust features and flexibility for dedicated e-commerce projects.
Squarespace does offer built-in e-commerce functionality and can work well for smaller shops or businesses with a limited number of products, but for stores that require more advanced tools and integrations, Shopify is usually the better long-term solution.
For that reason, we typically recommend Shopify for clients whose primary goal is selling products online.
We design websites using a few different platforms depending on your budget, design needs, and the functionality your website requires.
For projects that need the most design flexibility and advanced features, we typically use Webflow. Webflow allows us to build fully custom, responsive websites with complete control over layout, animations, and user experience. It also includes a CMS (Content Management System), which makes it easy for you to update certain parts of your website without touching the design.
A CMS works by creating structured content collections that automatically populate parts of your site. For example, if you have a blog, portfolio, team members page, or case studies, we can design a template once and connect it to the CMS. After that, adding a new blog post, project, or team member is as simple as filling out a form — the page is created and styled automatically.
For certain types of websites, other platforms can be a great fit as well. For example, photography portfolios often work well on Squarespace because it offers strong built-in gallery features and a streamlined setup for visual content.
For very simple websites — such as landing pages, personal links pages, or small one-page sites — we may recommend Carrd. Carrd is a lightweight platform that works well for straightforward sites with minimal content and a lower budget.
In short, we choose the platform based on what will give you the best balance of cost, functionality, and long-term flexibility for your website.
