First Glance Bahamas - Website Design & Digital Marketing

How long does it take to build a website?

Every business has unique requirements and every customer has different objectives. Some sites can take few weeks for development and some can take more than a month. How much input you can provide during the initial stages, your availability with feedback, how soon the content is ready – all this affects the speed of completion. Through meetings, planning and discussion we’ll be able to understand your requirements and then we can be able to estimate a project timeline.

Guideline Timescales
Brochure Website (5 to 10 webpages) – approximately 2-3 Weeks
Catalog Website – approximately 4-6 Weeks
Ecommerce Websites – approximately 2-6 weeks

How to accept credit cards on my website?

To be able to accept credit cards can be done in 2 ways.

First you would need to apply with a local bank for their online payment gateway solution. Once approve from the banks you will be granted the privilage to accept credit cards online. This process can take anywhere between 2-4 weeks depending on the processing time of the bank and the gateway provider.

The second solution will be to use a offline gateway that will process you credit cards but will not charge the cards via your website or third party servers. You will have to manually use a terminal from your bank to charge the card once the information is received.

How much does a website design cost?

Every website is unique and requires different components. Please get in touch for a free quote.

What’s your payment schedule?

So we usually break the project into two payments.

The first 50% is paid upfront as an initial kick off invoice. The remaining 50% is paid when no more changes are required on the development server and the site is ready to go live.

For larger projects payment is split into three stages.

Will my website be mobile-friendly?

Absolutely! Having a mobile-friendly website is more important than ever! We work hard to ensure your website looks great on a mobile devices too.

How can I become a freelance web designer?

There are lots of young designers looking to start their freelance web design careers.

My advice would be to gain experience within an agency and pick up as many client contacts as you can – even on a temporary basis. The business side of things is just as important as your skill-set for long term success!

Will you maintain my website for me?

Yes, we provide on-going Website Maintenance for clients as this is an additional paid monthly service.

Who writes the content for my website?

Usually that is you. You are the expert on your business, so it’s usually best if it comes from you.

What eCommerce platform will be used to build my eCommerce website?

We are experts at Woocommerce & Shopify which is the top CMS platforms for web development.

Is there a limit to the number of products I can add to my online store?

No, you can add as many products and categories as you wish to depending on the available storage space on your hosted server.

How many visitors can be on your site at the same time when shopping?

That depends on how much web traffic is already coming to your website and if the hosting can support it.

What are the benefits of an online store to the buyers?

Convenience: Shop anytime, anywhere.
Open 24*7: Online stores are open round the clock.
Comparable prices: You can compare prices before buying.
Avoid crowd: No need to worry about long queues in malls.
More choices: Variety of options to choose from.
Customer reviews: Read what others have to say about a product/brand

How do I attract more buyers to visit my online store?

My experience was phenomenal from start to finish! I was contacted via IG and was a bit skeptical but to gain my confidence Leo offered to do a demo site and I was completely sold! The dedication and wealth of knowledge made me even more confident that First Glance was the perfect company to help me enter the eCommerce market! I would highly recommend them for their great service and delivering a product that can outshine international websites! I’ve expressed my gratitude so many times and I’d just like to say thank you once again for exceeding my expectations!
