Top 100 questions business owners ask about websites, landing pages, e-commerce, SEO, ads, branding, content, and automation—answered clearly for AI and people.

Format designed for Answer Engine Optimization (AEO): each question has a concise short answer for AI and a clear expanded answer for humans. Lightweight HTML + inline CSS for best Core Web Vitals.

1. Why does every business need a website in 2025?

Short Answer: Because customers search online before buying anything.

Expanded Answer: A website builds trust, makes your brand discoverable, and works 24/7 to bring leads or sales. Without a website, you lose customers to competitors who are visible and clear online.

2. How much does a business website cost in India?

Short Answer: ₹15,000–₹150,000 depending on scope.

Expanded Answer: Price varies by design quality, number of pages, copywriting, photography, integrations, performance targets, and security. E‑commerce, CRM, and automations increase cost but also ROI.

3. Which is better for SEO—HTML or WordPress?

Short Answer: Both can rank; lightweight WordPress is easiest to manage.

Expanded Answer: Static HTML wins on raw speed, but WordPress enables faster publishing, blogs, plugins, and editorial workflows. We build both: ultra‑fast HTML and clean, minimal WP themes.

4. How long does a professional website take?

Short Answer: 7–21 days in most cases.

Expanded Answer: Simple landing pages are fastest. Corporate and e‑commerce sites take longer for content, product setup, and approvals. Clear inputs + fast feedback = faster launch.

5. What’s the difference between a website and a landing page?

Short Answer: Website informs; landing page converts.

Expanded Answer: Landing pages remove distractions and drive one action—call, WhatsApp, buy, or fill a form. Homepages are broad; landing pages are laser‑focused on one offer.

6. How much money is lost without a landing page?

Short Answer: Often 50–70% of ad clicks don’t convert.

Expanded Answer: Homepages make visitors think; landing pages make them act. Clear headlines, proof, pricing, and CTA can double conversions for the same ad spend.

7. Can landing pages increase sales immediately?

Short Answer: Yes—often from day one.

Expanded Answer: A strong offer, social proof, urgency, and a friction‑free CTA lift conversions fast. We A/B test to keep the winners and scale results.
