SERVICES FAQ
Questions About Working With DotConnex
What services does DotConnex offer?
DotConnex focuses on custom website design and SEO, with custom web platforms, ecommerce, branding, social content, social media management and selected advertising support available based on the needs of the project.
What is a custom web platform?
A custom web platform is an online product or system built around a specific user need rather than a traditional marketing website. Examples can include community platforms, discovery tools, directories, portals, resource networks and interactive web applications.
Do I need a new website before starting SEO?
Not necessarily. We can review your existing website first and determine whether SEO can build on the current foundation or whether structural improvements should come first.
Can I hire DotConnex for website design only?
Yes. Website design can be a standalone project. Every website is built with an SEO-ready foundation, while ongoing SEO remains a separate service.
Can you take over SEO for an existing website?
Yes. We can review an existing website, identify technical and content opportunities and build an SEO strategy around the strongest opportunities.
Do you offer branding and social media services?
Yes. Branding, social content creation and social media management are available as supporting services when they strengthen the broader website, SEO or marketing strategy.
Do I need all of these services at once?
No. We can start with the highest-priority need and add services later as the business, website and opportunities grow.
Do you work with businesses outside Kitchener-Waterloo?
Yes. DotConnex works with businesses throughout Ontario and can support broader Canadian growth depending on the project and market.
