Web development in Sri Lanka FAQs

Clear answers about cost, timing, ownership and ongoing support.

How much does a website cost in Sri Lanka?

The cost depends on the number of pages, design and features such as online payments, booking systems or custom functions. After a free consultation, we provide a clear fixed quote with no surprises.

How long does it take to build a website?

A standard business website usually takes three to six weeks. eCommerce websites and custom applications take longer depending on their features. We agree on the timeline before starting.

Do you build eCommerce websites with local payment gateways?

Yes. We integrate Sri Lankan options such as PayHere, bank card payments and cash on delivery, as well as international payment options such as Stripe for overseas customers.

Will my website work on mobile phones?

Yes. Every website is fully responsive and tested across a range of screen sizes, because most visitors now arrive on mobile.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. We use straightforward content management systems such as WordPress and show you how to update text, images, products and articles.

Do you provide hosting and domain registration?

Yes. We can register your .lk or .com domain and host the site on fast, secure infrastructure, or work with your existing hosting provider.

Will my new website rank on Google?

Every site follows technical and on-page SEO best practices, giving it a strong foundation. Competitive searches normally require an ongoing SEO programme to build authority and rankings over time.

Can you redesign my website without losing its Google rankings?

Yes. We map old URLs to the new website and implement proper redirects to protect the traffic and rankings you have already earned.

Do you offer support after the website goes live?

Yes. Monthly maintenance plans can cover updates, backups, security monitoring and small content changes.

Who owns the website once it is built?

You do. Once the project is complete, the website, content and domain belong to your business.
