Questions
Know what to expect before we begin.
Why is there a setup fee?
The setup fee covers discovery, content planning, initial design, configuration, and launch preparation. The monthly plan spreads the remaining build cost and ongoing care over time.
Why is the initial term 12 months?
The initial term makes a custom website accessible at a lower upfront cost while covering its build, launch, hosting, and ongoing support.
What happens after 12 months?
Service continues month to month at the same plan rate unless you cancel, change plans, or choose an available website buyout option.
What counts as a content change?
Edits to existing text, images, hours, team details, and similar page content are included within the monthly allowance. New pages, redesigns, and custom features are quoted separately.
Can Darvex build something more advanced?
Yes. When a small business outgrows standard website tools, portals, dashboards, booking workflows, and other custom systems can be scoped separately after discovery.
How much does a custom MERN application cost?
Custom MERN application engagements start at $30,000. The final price depends on workflows, user roles, integrations, security requirements, data migration, and the scope of the first release.
