How to choose who builds your website in Chișinău: 8 questions before the contract

Why quotes are hard to compare

Two quotes for “a website” can describe different products: a template with a few pages, or a project with structure, design, technical SEO and integrations. The questions below help you compare like with like.

1. What exactly does the price include?

Ask for the list: number of pages, language versions, forms, mobile adaptation, technical SEO, domain and SSL. At SiteHub, for example, a WordPress site starts from 6,500 MDL and a WooCommerce store from 13,000 MDL; anything beyond the base configuration is priced separately and said upfront.

2. Who owns the code and the access?

The domain, hosting and admin panel should be registered in your name. Ask for this in writing.

3. Can you see real projects?

Ask for links to live sites, not presentation images. Check them on a phone and measure the speed.

4. How is technical SEO done?

Unique titles and descriptions, canonical, sitemap, hreflang for RO and RU, structured data and good speed are the baseline. The difference between “SEO included” and “SEO promotion” should be explained clearly.

5. Who designs and who codes?

A single owner reduces information loss. Find out who your contact is and who handles changes.

6. What are the timelines and stages?

A clear process has stages: brief, structure, design, development, testing and launch, with approval points.

7. What happens after launch?

Ask about the bug warranty, updates, backups and the price of maintenance.

8. What does the quote not promise?

Be wary of “No. 1 on Google in 30 days”: no serious provider can guarantee a position.

!The cheapest price becomes expensive if the site has to be rebuilt. Compare what the quote contains, not only the total.

If you want a clear estimate, see the website development page or use the price calculator; after the estimate we will reply with details.
