Budget & timelines
What is the budget for a project with Aureva?
It depends on the nature and size of the project. Tell us about it and you will receive a clear proposal, with no surprises.
How long does it take to deliver a website?
A business website usually takes a few weeks, a more complex platform takes longer. The exact timeline is set after the scoping phase.
How long for an MVP?
It varies with complexity. We scope it together before giving a timeline.
Technical
Why WordPress and not another tool?
WordPress offers the flexibility and maintainability most businesses need. For some projects (platforms, SaaS), custom development or Bubble is a better fit. We discuss it together.
WooCommerce or Shopify, how to choose?
It depends on your volume, your budget and how much customisation you need. We discuss it during scoping.
Can I migrate an existing store?
Yes, it is a common case. We assess what history to keep before starting.
Will the store be optimised for mobile?
Yes. Most online purchases now happen on mobile, it is not optional.
I have no connected tools right now, is that a problem?
No, it is actually the simplest starting point.
Does it work with the tools I already use (CRM, email, etc.)?
In the vast majority of cases, yes. We check compatibility during scoping.
Can I edit my site myself after delivery?
Yes. The site is built to stay maintainable: you don’t depend on Aureva for every small change.
Can my current site be redesigned instead of starting from scratch?
Yes. We look at what can be kept, content, search rankings, page addresses, before deciding.
Working together
Do you offer maintenance after launch?
Yes. A site that doesn’t evolve loses performance and visibility over time.
Do you work with companies outside Benin?
Yes, with partners in French-speaking Africa, Europe and worldwide. All the work is done remotely, with regular check-ins.
I only have an idea, no specification. Can we still start?
Yes, the “Understand” phase of the method is exactly for that.
Do I keep ownership of the code and product?
Yes, entirely.
Do I need to learn n8n or Make myself?
No, unless you want to. The system is designed to run without any action from you.
SEO & GEO
What is GEO, in practice?
It is what allows your business to be understood and cited by AIs such as ChatGPT or Claude when someone asks them a question in your field. It is the natural extension of SEO.
What is the difference between SEO and GEO, in practice?
SEO targets classic search engines (Google). GEO targets generative AI systems (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) that increasingly answer in place of a search.
How long before results show?
Several months in general. Anyone promising immediate results is lying.
Do I need to publish content regularly?
It is strongly recommended to build the site’s authority over time.
The most common questions, in brief
These questions come up before almost every project: budget, timelines, the choice between WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify, maintenance, SEO and GEO. We add new questions as they come back.
