Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our services, pricing, process, and AI Virtual Assistant plans.
We offer five core services: Website Creation (from scratch, 100% custom code), Website Update (modernise an existing site), Branding (complete brand identity), Rebranding (evolve and reposition an existing brand), and Social Media, Paid Traffic & Ads (content management, Google Ads, Meta Ads, ROI tracking). On top of those, we offer the AI Virtual Assistant as an add-on — a custom-trained chat companion built around your brand, available in four plans (Companion Spark, Companion Pro, Companion Elite, and Companion Elite Pro). The very assistant you’re chatting with now (Wee Core) is our proof of concept. Every website we build also includes ongoing hosting & support.
We are based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and serve clients across the UK, Ireland, Brazil, Portugal, and beyond. Our digital-first approach means we collaborate effectively regardless of your location — we've delivered 10+ projects across 5 countries to date.
Our approach centres on Strategic Empathy — we don't just build websites or brands, we decode the complexity of your business and translate your unique value into the exact language your audience needs to hear. Combined with our agility in delivery, we offer a level of understanding and speed that larger agencies simply cannot match.
We offer three main plans: Foundations (£1,197), Masterpiece (£2,497), and Premium Core (£4,897). We also offer Premium Core Plus for custom solutions. Each plan includes managed hosting from £35/month (£35 Foundations, £59 Masterpiece, £99 Premium Core). Visit our pricing section for full details.
Yes, we require a 30% non-reimbursable deposit to begin work on your project. This secures your place in our production schedule and covers initial discovery and planning phases.
After your website is delivered, any modification is categorised as Minor (£29.90), Medium (£49.90), or Major (£99.90). Masterpiece and Premium Core include 3 free support corrections after delivery — after those are used, the tiered fees above apply. Foundations charges at the Minor flat rate. We keep fees published upfront so there are no surprises later.
Our managed hosting — from £35/month (£35 Foundations, £59 Masterpiece, £99 Premium Core) — covers everything you need to keep your site live, fast, and secure: SSL/HTTPS certificate, DDoS protection, automated daily backups, 99.9% uptime guarantee, performance monitoring, unlimited bandwidth, and email support. No surprise charges, no forced upgrades. You can cancel anytime — the site stops but you keep full ownership of the code we built for you.
Our Foundations plan delivers a first preview within 72 hours, with the final version ready 72 hours after feedback, and publication within one week. More complex projects (Masterpiece and Premium Core) follow a tailored timeline discussed during the discovery phase.
We'll guide you through a comprehensive briefing process where we gather all necessary information about your business, goals, target audience, and preferences. The more information you share, the more effectively we can translate your vision into reality.
Yes! Our Masterpiece and Premium Core plans include comprehensive user training. We provide a user-friendly admin panel and walk you through every aspect of managing your content, so you feel confident and autonomous.
Websites are actually the fastest thing we deliver. Here are typical timelines for every service: Foundations website — 1 week. Masterpiece website — 1–2 weeks. Premium Core website — 2–3 weeks. Website Update — 1–2 weeks depending on scope. Branding — 2–3 weeks from the first workshop. Rebranding — 3–4 weeks (includes audit and competitive analysis). Social Media setup — 1 week, then ongoing monthly management. AI Virtual Assistant — Companion Spark: 3–5 working days. Companion Pro: 5–10 working days. Companion Elite: 2–3 weeks. Companion Elite Pro: quoted individually. Premium Core + bespoke projects also carry an individual timeline agreed during the discovery call.
Domain registration is not included in our plans. However, we can advise you on the best domain options and assist with the setup process. This approach gives you full ownership and control of your domain.
Absolutely. All our websites are built with a mobile-first responsive approach, ensuring a seamless experience across all devices — smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. This is fundamental to our development process, not an afterthought.
Yes. Our Foundations plan includes basic SEO setup, while our Masterpiece and Premium Core plans include advanced SEO optimisation. This covers meta tags, structured data, page speed optimisation, and strategic keyword implementation to improve your visibility in search engines.
Absolutely. Our Website Update service is designed for exactly this. Whether your site is slow, not mobile-friendly, or simply looks dated, we modernise it with fresh design, faster performance, and better SEO — without losing your existing content or search rankings. Pricing depends on scope: a Quick Refresh (design update, speed optimisation, mobile fix) starts at £497, a Full Modernisation (complete visual overhaul with new features) starts at £897, and a Complete Rebuild (new architecture, migration from WordPress/Wix) starts at £1,197. We can also migrate your site from any platform — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace — to our custom, faster, template-free approach.
Branding is for businesses that don’t yet have a professional visual identity — we create your logo, colour palette, typography, tone of voice, and brand guidelines from scratch. Starting at £997. Rebranding is for businesses that already have a brand but need to evolve it — perhaps you’ve outgrown your current look, your market has shifted, or your visual identity no longer reflects the quality of your work. We audit what you have, keep what works, and elevate the rest. Starting at £1,497. Both include a comprehensive brand guidelines document you can use across all channels.
Yes. A beautiful website without traffic is a billboard in the desert. Our Social Media, Paid Traffic & Ads service puts your brand in front of the right people. We offer three monthly plans:
Starter (£497/month) — Social media content calendar, 12 posts/month, basic community management, monthly performance report.
Growth (£897/month) — Everything in Starter plus Google Ads OR Meta Ads (Facebook + Instagram) campaign management, A/B testing, conversion tracking, and bi-weekly reporting. Ad spend is separate and starts from £200/month.
Scale (£1,497/month) — Full-service: social media + Google Ads + Meta Ads, content creation, campaign optimisation, weekly reporting, dedicated account manager, and ROI-focused strategy sessions.
All plans include a free initial audit of your current digital presence. No long-term contracts — results speak for themselves.
Short answer: yes. Social media is rented land — you don’t own your followers, Meta does. One algorithm change or account suspension and your entire customer base vanishes overnight. A website is yours: your domain, your content, your data. It works 24/7, ranks on Google, and gives customers the confidence to buy from you. The most successful businesses use both: social media to attract attention, and a website to convert that attention into revenue. We can help with both.
Results vary by industry, but our clients typically see 3-5x return on ad spend within the first 90 days. The key is combining a high-converting website (which we build) with targeted paid campaigns (which we manage). We don’t just drive clicks — we drive customers. Every campaign includes conversion tracking so you know exactly where your money goes and what it produces. We provide transparent reporting and adjust strategy monthly based on real data, not guesswork.
Yes, and this is one of the most impactful things we do. Template-based platforms like WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace are convenient to start with, but they come with bloated code, slow loading times, limited SEO control, and monthly fees that add up. We migrate your content, preserve your SEO rankings, and rebuild your site with clean, custom code that loads faster, ranks higher, and costs less to maintain. Most clients see their PageSpeed score jump from 30-50 to 90+ after migration.
Yes — through our Premium Core + plan, our bespoke tier for businesses that need e-commerce, payment processing, scheduling systems, API integrations, or custom apps. Because every store is different (product count, payment gateways, shipping rules, inventory sync), we quote each project individually after a discovery call. Bespoke builds typically start at £7,497 plus hosting from £35/month. We’ve built real estate platforms, solar energy investment portfolios, and consultation scheduling flows — every one custom-coded, no Shopify, no WooCommerce, no template.
Absolutely — and most of our clients do. The most popular combinations are Website + Branding (complete digital identity from scratch), Website + Social Media Management (build it and fill it with customers), and Website + AI Virtual Assistant (a site that looks great and never stops working). When you bundle, we offer a 10-15% discount on the combined package because the work naturally complements itself and we can deliver more efficiently. Get in touch and we’ll build a custom proposal based on what you actually need — no upselling, just the right solution.
The AMDG AI Virtual Assistant is a custom-trained chat companion that lives on your website, answers visitor questions, captures leads, and represents your brand — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It isn’t a generic chatbot: it’s trained on your specific services, pricing, policies, team, and tone of voice. The assistant you’re talking to right now (Wee Core) is our own proof of concept. We offer four plans:
Companion Spark — £697 setup + £59/month (live in 3–5 working days)
Ideal for small businesses wanting a professional first step. Covers FAQ, opening hours, services & pricing, and hands off complex queries to your WhatsApp.
Companion Pro — £1,497 setup + £119/month (Most Popular — live in 5–10 working days)
The full experience. Adds lead capture (name, email, phone), bilingual support (English + one additional language), email transcripts of every conversation, and a monthly performance report.
Companion Elite — £2,997 setup + £249/month (live in 2–3 weeks)
Built for businesses serious about conversion. Full sales agent behaviour, CRM webhook (HubSpot and similar), A/B persona testing, and a priority 24-hour support SLA.

Enterprise-grade: voice interface, private language model, scheduling integration, multi-language support, and a dedicated team. Quoted individually after a discovery call.

No — any website can have a Companion. Whether your site runs on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, or was custom-built by someone else, we can integrate an AI Virtual Assistant into it. The widget installs via a single line of code. The only thing that matters is that your site can embed a script tag — which virtually every platform supports. You don’t need to move your hosting, change your platform, or rebuild anything. The assistant simply appears on your existing site, trained on your business, ready to talk to visitors. Get in touch about your project →
After sign-up, we run a structured onboarding session where you share everything we need: your services, pricing, policies, FAQs, team bios, opening hours, and how you want the assistant to sound. We then build a custom knowledge base and persona — your assistant gets a name, a voice, and a character that fits your brand. Before going live, you review and approve a full conversation test. On Companion Pro and Elite plans, the knowledge base is updated any time your business changes — new service, new pricing, seasonal hours — with updates applied within 48 hours. Elite clients also get a monthly review call to keep the assistant aligned with business evolution.
