Frequently asked questions

18 questions, each answered in the first sentence. Grouped by where they come up.

Process and timeline

How long does it take to build a website with CcinoCode?

A landing page takes 2 to 3 days and a multi-page website takes 4 to 5 days, counted from the day we receive your content and brand assets. The clock starts on day zero, when we have what we need, so the timeline is something we can actually keep.

How can a website be built well in five days?

Because the process is narrow, not because corners are cut. The scope is fixed before we start, the content is ready on day zero, the stack is one we have built on many times, and there is one structured revision round rather than open-ended changes. Each of those removes a place where projects normally stall.

How many rounds of revisions are included?

One structured round. You review the whole site once, near the end of the build, and send all your changes in one list. Small fixes in the first week after launch are covered. A second full round is quoted separately, because open-ended revisions are what turn a five-day build into a five-week one.

What is the difference between a landing page and a multi-page website?

A landing page is one page with one goal, live in 2 to 3 days. A multi-page website is 5 to 8 pages, usually home, services, about and contact plus a few more, live in 4 to 5 days. If you sell one thing to one audience, start with a landing page. If you need to explain several services, you need the multi-page site.

Content

What do I need to have ready before the build starts?

Your logo, a list of pages, the copy for each page, images, and your contact details. If you have a domain, we need access to it. The content checklist page lists every item, the format we need it in, and why. If you do not have copy, our content writing service covers it.

What if I do not have any content written?

We write it. Our content writing service produces the copy for every page from a short brief, structured for your customers and for search. It adds 1 to 2 days to the build and removes all of the writing from your side.

Do I need to supply my own photos?

Your own photos are better than stock and we recommend them for anything showing your business, team or premises. Where you have none, we use licensed stock images and say so. Either way, images should be sent on day zero in the highest resolution you have.

Technical

What is included in a standard build?

Designed pages, mobile-responsive layout, contact forms, Google Analytics and Search Console connected, search and AI-search setup, hosting deployed on your domain, and a full handover. There is no separate list of extras you find out about later.

What is AI-search optimisation?

AI-search optimisation, also called Generative Engine Optimization or GEO, is setting up a website so that AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews can find, understand and cite it. It covers clear entity information, structured data, question-shaped content and an llms.txt file. It is included in every multi-page build.

Do I need to own a domain already?

It helps, but it is not required. If you have one, we need access to its DNS settings on day zero. If you do not, we help you register one at kickoff, in your name, so you own it.

Where is the website hosted, and what does it cost?

On Vercel, on a global CDN with HTTPS and automatic deployments. Hosting is set up as part of the build. Ongoing hosting is either in your own Vercel account, so you pay Vercel directly, or covered by a care plan. We tell you which before launch.

Why not build on WordPress?

Because a Next.js site is faster, needs no plugin updates, and has nothing to be hacked through. WordPress is the right tool for a site that changes daily and needs a large editorial team. For a business site with a stable page list, it adds maintenance without adding value.

Working together

How much does a website cost?

Pricing depends on scope and is given on request. Tell us what you need on the contact page or over WhatsApp and we send a fixed quote within one working day. There are no prices on this site because a landing page and an eight-page site are not the same job.

Where is CcinoCode based, and do you work with businesses outside Sri Lanka?

CcinoCode is a remote studio serving clients in Sri Lanka and internationally. Everything happens over WhatsApp, email and shared links, so where you are does not change the process or the timeline. Working hours are Sri Lanka time.

How does payment work?

Payment terms are agreed in the written quote before day zero. The quote is the price for the agreed scope, and there are no surprise extras at launch. Ask on the contact page and we send the terms with the quote.

After launch

Can I edit the website myself after launch?

Yes. Every site is built so that text, images and pages can be updated after handover, and the handover includes a short walkthrough. If you would rather we handle updates, a care plan covers that.

Do I own the website after it is built?

Yes, fully. The domain is in your name, the source code lives in a repository you own, the hosting account and analytics property are yours. If you ever want to move to another developer, everything goes with you.

What happens after the website goes live?

You own it and you can edit it. If you want ongoing help, care plans cover hosting and uptime, content updates, ongoing SEO and GEO, analytics reporting, performance monitoring and security updates. Care plans are optional and priced on request.
