Website Design & Development FAQs
As a leading web design and development agency, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive educational resources and answering frequently asked questions. Explore insights into design, templates, UI/UX, and more to help you make informed decisions for your digital journey.
Why is professional website design important for my business?
A professional website design is essential for your business because it creates a strong first impression, building trust and credibility with potential customers. It reflects your brand’s identity through consistent colors, fonts, and messaging, making your business memorable and distinctive. A well-designed site also delivers a better user experience by being easy to navigate, fast-loading, and mobile-friendly, which keeps visitors engaged and more likely to convert. Professional design incorporates SEO best practices, helping your site rank higher in search results and reach a wider audience. It also gives you a competitive edge, as many competitors already have polished websites. Ultimately, investing in a professionally built website saves time and money in the long run by avoiding common DIY mistakes, ensuring your site works seamlessly across devices and effectively drives business growth.
How long does it take to design and develop a website?
The time it takes to design and develop a website depends on the size, complexity, and specific requirements of the project. A simple brochure-style website with a few pages can often be completed in 3–4 weeks, while a larger, more complex site with custom features, e-commerce functionality, or integrations may take several months. The process typically includes stages such as planning, design, content creation, development, testing, and revisions, and timelines can also be influenced by how quickly feedback and content are provided. Working with a professional ensures the project stays on track and is delivered efficiently without compromising on quality.
Can I use one of your templates and customise it?
Yes, you can absolutely use one of our recomended templates and customise it to fit your business. The templates we use are designed to be flexible and user-friendly, allowing you to change colors, fonts, images, and content to match your brand. They provide a solid professional foundation while still giving you the freedom to personalise the look and feel of your website. If you need help with more advanced customisations, our team can also assist you in tailoring the template even further to meet your specific needs.
What’s the difference between UI and UX design?
The difference between UI and UX design lies in their focus: UI (User Interface) design is about the look and feel of a website or app — the visuals, colors, buttons, and layout that users interact with. UX (User Experience) design, on the other hand, focuses on how easy, smooth, and enjoyable that interaction is — ensuring the site is intuitive, efficient, and meets the user’s needs. In short, UI is about aesthetics and presentation, while UX is about functionality and the overall experience..
Can you host and support my website after its built?
Yes, we can host and support your website after it’s built. We offer reliable hosting to keep your site fast and secure, along with ongoing support to help with updates, maintenance, and any issues that come up. This ensures your website stays up-to-date, performs well, and gives you peace of mind so you can focus on running your business.

Tristar Tech Solutions have looked after all our ICT needs at LA Directories Ltd since I took over the company in 2016; I have had nothing short of A* service and customer care from their support team ever since. More recently I contracted Tristar Tech Solutions to design and develop our new corporate website. Everything went smoothly and was up and running within a matter of weeks. As a company I am always impressed with their level of professionalism, knowledge and delivery. I can honestly say that I always get value for money too. What more can you ask!

In 2012 I launched my own music festival, we decided that we could create our own website, within 10 minutes of tickets going on sale our website collapsed!!!! - I contacted Tristar Tech solutions and within a couple of hours Pauls team had set up a separate page for ticket sales , which eased the traffic on our site. Tristar built us a new website. We have worked with Tristar ever since. I love the fact that paul is always available to chat and give good advice. I wouldn`t run my festival without Tristar looking after our website & IT. derick peacock2024-02-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
