FAQs
How long does it take to build a website?
It varies. The final amount of time it takes to complete a website depends upon the complexity, size, goals, functionality, and design of your website—as well as a client's responsiveness and quality of participation. While very small, very simple websites can take as little as 4 weeks to complete, larger more complex websites can take 6 months and beyond.
Why aren't I showing up on the first page in Google?
If your site has been live for more than a few months but is not ranking as well as you'd like in the search engines, it might be time to consider Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in addition to other marketing services.
For those who prefer not to invest in a large-scale SEO campaign, we offer exceptionally helpful Search Engine ranking consultations, website improvement audits, Search Engine Ranking Booster Plans, and even monthly Do-It-Yourself Rankings Booster plans. (Our monthly Do-It-Yourself Ranking Improvement Plan will not only pinpoint problems in your site preventing you from obtaining high rankings, it will also provide you with easy-to-follow checklists of specific actions you can take—at your own pace—to improve your rankings over time.)
Contact us and we can share different ways in which you can increase your Search Engine rankings and attract more visitors to your site.
Why is the company called timeforcake?
Alas, there is no amazing (or even mildly entertaining) story behind the company name. It matters not though; most everyone loves cake, and it truly is always timeforcake.
Didn't you have a different logo...?
Yes. Here is the previous timeforcake logo (2002 - mid 2011).
Can you fix my computer?
Sorry, we can't. We build great websites, but we're not the people to call if you're in need of computer repair, networking assistance, servers, etc.
Can you take care of my hosting?
Absolutely. We currently manage the website (and email) hosting for the majority of our clients.
If you manage my hosting, how many email accounts do I get?
As many as you'd like.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes. We offer an initial, free 30-minute phone consultation to anyone considering working with us.

Will I be able to update my site on my own, or will you do that for me?
This is likely one of the most common questions we receive. And it's a great question. Our answer: What would work best for you?
Updating Option #1 - Updates by timeforcake
We update your site's content
This option is recommended for individuals and companies with smaller budgets and who plan to have sites that won't require regular updating. We make updates to your site per your requests, and those updates are simply billed hourly (with a 1/4 hour minimum).
Updating Option #2 - Updates by You
You update and control ALL your site's content
This option is recommended for individuals and companies who plan to have sites that will require regular updates, changes, and additions. For this option, timeforcake integrates a powerful Content Management System (CMS) into your site that allows you to quickly, easily, and securely update all of your content with the click of a few buttons. The integration of a complete, site-wide CMS incurs a larger upfront cost (usually starting around $1500 - $2000), but also ensures that low to no maintenance costs are incurred after the site's launch, as all content updating can be managed internally).
Updating Option #3 - Some updates by us, some updates by You
You update and control some of your site's content
This option is recommended for individuals and companies that have websites where only a few sections of content need regular updating -- perhaps just a "Latest News" section or an "Upcoming Events" page. Instead of integrating a full-site Content Management System (as in Option B), we are able to integrate a "mini" Content Management System that gives you control over pre-determined areas of text (and/or photos) within your site. All changes that cannot be made with the mini Content Management System would be made by timeforcake. This option is cheaper than Option B.
