For example, search statewide search ‘web design Virginia’ or ‘Virginia web design’ or ‘Virginia web design companies, find VISIONEFX’s first page in the Top 5. We have many competitors, but successfully competing for a spot statewide in the Google Top 10 speaks to our ability to find our clients’ websites on Google.

VISIONEFX can help you with basic writing tasks for SEO purposes; however, we have a strategic partnership with copywriters writing for SEO and the web for the heavy lifting. On the other hand, we encourage clients to rewrite their content. No one knows your business better than you!
10. “Why is copywriting so important?”
It has become vital for a website to communicate effectively in today’s online marketplace. And also be grammatically correct. From the marketing point of view, web content must convey your message to visitors. From an SEO perspective, professional-level copywriting yields a higher search engine ranking.
11. “Do you provide customers with references?”
Choosing a web designer who does not have references is like rolling the dice. Therefore, don’t gamble your hard-earned dollars on a slick sales pitch. Instead, if you want to work with someone with a solid reputation for service and artistry, ask for references or reviews. VISIONEFX has live Google Reviews posted by actual customers.
12. “Does your price include hosting and registering a domain name?”
We recommend that clients retain 100% control of their hosting and domain. It would be best never to put your domain name and host in the power of another 3rd party. Web hosting and domain registration are relatively inexpensive. The yearly cost for a typical small business website hosting plan ranges from $120.00 to $200.00 per year, depending on how many years you sign up. We will help to guide you through the hosting setup process.
