FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Client FAQs
Common questions about project workflows, pricing, technologies, and deliverables.
Timelines depend on scope and features. A custom high-converting landing page or design prototype typically takes 1–2 weeks. Full-stack web applications with database architectures, authentication, and payment integrations generally require 3–6 weeks. Every project includes a detailed weekly roadmap.
I select modern tools tailored to your speed and growth goals. For responsive, SEO-optimized frontends, I work with React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. For scalable backend APIs and data storage, I build with Node.js, Express, Python, and SQL (PostgreSQL/MySQL). UI/UX prototypes are crafted directly in Figma.
Projects follow milestone-based payments. Typically, a 50% upfront deposit kicks off design and backend architecture, while the remaining 50% is due upon final testing and production deployment. For local Kenyan clients, M-Pesa is supported, alongside Bank Transfers and Stripe/PayPal for international partners.
Yes! Every completed project includes 30 days of complimentary post-launch support covering bug fixes, performance monitoring, and handover walkthroughs. Ongoing monthly retainer packages are also available for continuous feature development and SEO audits.
