Custom code, written by our team

We handle the front end and back end, using Next.js and React for fast pages and Payload or WordPress so your team can edit content. You own the code and get a walkthrough of the CMS, so the site stays easy to hand over. Hosting and ongoing maintenance are agreed in your scope.

Process

How a project runs,
start to finish.

At every stage you know what’s happening, what you’ll receive and what we need from you.

  1. It starts with a call about your business, your customers and what the site has to do. You then receive a written scope, a fixed price and a timeline.

  2. Page plans and wireframes settle the structure. Full designs follow, and you review each stage before the next one starts.

  3. The site is built and tested on phones, tablets and desktops. A live link lets you click through the real thing while it comes together.

  4. It goes live on your domain with old links redirected. Your team gets a walkthrough, and any ongoing support is agreed before launch.

  5. Need a fix, an update or a new page? It goes to the same people who built the site.

FAQ

Questions about
working with us.

Can’t find your answer here? Email us about your project.

hello@ortha.studio
Are you a good fit for my business?

If you want a custom website, software or SEO and prefer to work directly with the people doing it, yes. The studio is set up for small and mid-sized businesses, and for agencies that need the work under their own name. Unsure? Send a few lines about the project and you’ll get a straight answer.

Can you work on my existing website?

Yes. We redesign, rebuild and migrate existing sites, and clean up WordPress sites that have been hacked. First we review what already works, then recommend what to keep and what to replace.

How much does a website cost?

The price follows the scope: how many pages, what the site has to do and how much of the content is ready. After a short call you get a fixed price and a written scope, before any work starts.

Do I have to pay everything up front?

SEO audits and WordPress cleanup are paid in full before work starts. Other fixed-price projects are paid half to start and half at completion. With Build & Care there’s no setup fee, just a monthly payment with a 6-month minimum.

How long will it take?

Counted from an approved quote, a launch page typically takes 1–2 weeks, a business website 3–5 weeks and a first web app 10–12 weeks. Your quote states the exact timeline, and content and feedback arriving on time keep it there.

Can I update the site myself?

Yes. The CMS is set up around the content you’ll change most, and your team gets a walkthrough. You own the domain, code, design files and content, with no license fees. With Build & Care, you can transfer the site to another provider any time after six months.

What happens after launch?

The same people stay on hand. A care plan covers updates, backups and uptime checks, or choose Build & Care and we build the site and look after it for one monthly fee. New features are scoped and quoted like any other project.
