Questions & answers
A little clarity
before you begin.
What you get, what you provide and how your website can grow.
What is a personal website, and who is it for?
A personal website is one page, or a few, on your own name that says who you are, what you do and how you got here. It is for anyone with a career, not only business owners or influencers.
I’m not a business. Do I really need a website?
Not necessarily. But if employers, clients, customers or new contacts look you up, a website gives them one accurate place built from your own answers, instead of scattered posts.
Why not just use LinkedIn, Instagram or a link-in-bio page?
Keep them. Those profiles live on someone else’s platform and follow its format. Your own domain is the one place you control, and it links back to all of them.
What do people and AI find when they look me up?
Search engines and AI assistants work from what is publicly available about you. A clear, consistent website on your own name gives them a source built from your own words. No one can control or guarantee what they show.
How much does a personal website cost?
Personal Presence is $269 for one page. Professional Website is $669 for up to five pages. Personal Brand Website is quoted individually. Your domain, setup and first year’s hosting are included.
What happens after the first year?
Your domain and hosting renew at $79 per year from year two. The domain is registered in your name, so it stays yours.
Who writes the words?
You fill in a short questionnaire about your story, your work and what you want people to know. We write your website from your answers, and you approve every word before anything goes live.
How long does it take?
Usually 5 to 10 working days after we receive your completed questionnaire and photos. Personal Brand Website timings are set in your proposal.
Will my website show up on Google?
Usually yes for searches of your own name once it is indexed, especially if your name is uncommon. Ranking for general terms is not promised, and common names take longer.
Will ChatGPT or Google’s AI mention me?
No one can guarantee that. We make sure your website can be crawled, describes you clearly in plain text and structured data, and links your real profiles so these systems can connect them.
What is structured data, and why is it included?
Structured data is a label in your website’s code that tells search engines and AI this page is about you, and lists your official profiles. It helps machines understand the page, but it does not guarantee how anything is shown.
Do I own my domain?
Yes. A standard available domain is registered in your name for the first 12 months, with a $27 allowance. Premium names and higher-priced extensions need an agreed supplement.
Can I use a domain I already have?
Yes, tell us about it before purchasing so we can agree how to connect it. Transfers and any change to the domain allowance need confirmation first.
What if my name is common?
We can add a middle initial or your profession to your web address, and keep your photo, job title and bio consistent with your verified profiles, so people and machines can tell you apart.
What should I keep off my website?
Keep private details private: your home address, date of birth, ID numbers and anything you would not tell a stranger. You decide what becomes public, and we flag anything that looks risky.
What do I need to provide?
Your completed questionnaire, photos you have permission to use, links to your official profiles and your preferred contact method.
How are the three packages different?
Personal Presence is a one-page introduction. Professional Website gives your experience and work up to five pages. Personal Brand Website adds positioning, messaging and content development within an individually agreed scope.
What is a revision round?
One collected set of pre-launch changes within the agreed scope. Personal Presence includes one round, Professional Website includes two. New pages or a change of design direction need a separate agreement.
What support is included?
The fixed packages include 30 days after launch for correcting implementation defects. New content, new features and ongoing updates are separate work.
Can I update my website later?
Yes. Updates, new pages and new features after launch are quoted separately, so your website can grow as your career does.
Which currencies can I pay in?
US dollars, British pounds or euros. Use the currency switch next to any price to see yours.
Is an AI Representative included?
No. AI Representative is a separate optional service. Its availability, information boundaries, capabilities and ongoing terms are agreed individually.
