Your Included Development Scope
Our Free Website Development Offer currently includes three standard development tiers.
Your eligible tier is determined by the qualifying hosting term and confirmed during purchase verification.
10-Page Business Website
Our largest standard development tier for businesses requiring a more complete website architecture and dedicated pages for important services or information.
Depending on your project, the website may include:
- Professional homepage
- About/company page
- Multiple service pages
- Contact page
- Projects or portfolio
- Gallery
- FAQs
- Team
- Testimonials
- Case studies
- Blog layout
- Other approved business pages
Dedicated service pages can be particularly useful when individual services require substantial information of their own.
The exact sitemap and page allocation are agreed during project planning.
Request 10-Page WebsiteWhat Types of Websites Can We Build?
The development tier determines the size of the project, not necessarily the type of business.
Depending on the approved scope, eligible projects can include websites for:
- Freelancers
- Developers
- Designers
- Consultants
- Startups
- Local businesses
- Agencies
- Restaurants
- Salons and barbers
- Real estate professionals
- Construction businesses
- Professional services
- Clinics and healthcare
- Photographers & creators
- Portfolios
- Other small-business projects
For example, a portfolio could be developed as a focused 1-page website or as a larger 5-page website depending on the qualifying tier and requirements.
What's Included?
Depending on your approved project, standard development may include:
Professional Structure
Pages and sections organized around the purpose of your business rather than simply filling a predefined template.
Responsive Design
Layouts designed and checked for common desktop, tablet, and mobile screen sizes.
Navigation
Appropriate header, menu, page navigation, and footer structure.
Content Placement
Placement and formatting of the text, images, logos, and business information you provide.
Contact Forms
Standard contact or enquiry forms where appropriate.
Basic SEO Setup
Titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, clean URLs, sitemap configuration, and SEO plugin setup where applicable.
Basic Performance
Reasonable caching and performance-related configuration where supported by the selected technology and hosting.
SSL/HTTPS Setup
Basic HTTPS configuration where supported by the hosting provider and project environment.
Standard Integrations
Maps, contact links, social links, or similar standard integrations where appropriate.
Our Development Approach
We do not force every website into one technical stack.
The development approach is selected according to the project requirements, hosting environment, maintainability, and approved scope.
Depending on the project, we may use technologies or platforms such as:
Not every project will use every technology listed above. For example, using both Tailwind CSS and Bootstrap on every website would be unnecessary.
Our objective is to choose an appropriate implementation rather than add technologies simply to make the stack appear larger.
Clean, Maintainable Development
Our priorities include:
- Responsive layouts
- Clear website structure
- Appropriate technology
- Reasonable performance
- Maintainability
- Mobile usability
- Consistent visual design
- Practical business functionality
Where custom code is useful, it may be used. Where a suitable WordPress or open-source solution is more maintainable for the customer, we may use that instead.
The Free Website Development Offer does not guarantee that every website will be completely hand-coded from scratch.
Development Process
Every approved project follows a structured process:
Verify Your Eligible Hosting Purchase
Purchase currently eligible hosting through an approved HostCouponCodes referral link and submit the required purchase information through your Member Dashboard.
Your development tier is confirmed after successful verification.
Submit Your Website Requirements
Once eligibility is confirmed, we collect the information needed for your website. This may include:
- Business information
- Required pages
- Services
- Website text
- Logo
- Images
- Contact information
- Brand colors
- Design preferences
- Example websites
- Required standard functionality
The more complete your content and requirements are, the easier it is to plan the project accurately.
Confirm Sitemap & Scope
We review your requirements and establish the appropriate website structure within your qualifying page allowance.
For larger projects, this may include confirming: Pages → Navigation → Content → Features → Design Direction.
Requests outside the standard Free Website Development scope are identified before being added to the project.
Design & Development
After the requirements and applicable scope are clear, we begin building the website. Depending on the project, this may include:
- Website environment setup
- Page layouts
- Responsive styling
- Navigation
- Content placement
- Forms
- Basic SEO setup
- Basic performance config
- Standard integrations
Development may take place on an appropriate staging or development environment where technically suitable. A dedicated staging environment is not guaranteed or required for every project.
Review & Refinement
When an appropriate development version is ready, we perform checks and may provide an opportunity for reasonable feedback within the approved scope.
Refinements may include:
- Minor layout adjustments
- Spacing
- Typography
- Text corrections
- Provided-image replacements
- Responsive adjustments
- Other reasonable styling corrections
Unlimited revisions, additional pages, major redesigns, or new functionality are not included.
Launch & Handoff
After the approved development work is complete, the website is prepared for final launch and handoff. Depending on the project, this may include:
- Primary domain connection
- SSL/HTTPS confirmation
- Basic functionality checks
- Final website access
- WordPress administrator access where applicable
- Project handoff
Your hosting account remains under your control.
Development Timeline
We do not advertise one fixed turnaround time for every website. The schedule depends on:
- Development tier
- Page count
- Project complexity
- Content availability
- Client response time
- Required revisions
- Hosting environment
- Approved functionality
- Applicable hosting refund period
Smaller Approved Projects
Eligible 1-page websites may be developed and delivered during the hosting provider's applicable initial refund period.
Multi-Page Approved Projects
Planning and preliminary work may begin earlier, but final development and/or final delivery may be scheduled after the applicable initial hosting refund period has passed.
Your expected project schedule will be communicated after eligibility and project requirements have been reviewed.
