Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve been lucky to collaborate with a long list of customers, located in and out of the country. Thanks to them we have grown as professionals.
What services does PPWix Website Services provide?
We provide full-stack website development, custom coding, technical SEO, managed hosting, ongoing site maintenance, and integrated payment processing. We support businesses in South Dakota and around the country both online and in-store, handling everything from infrastructure to long-term support.
Do you only work with WordPress?
No. While WordPress is a powerful and flexible platform we frequently work with, we also develop and support websites on other major platforms and custom systems depending on the needs of the project.
Are you Wix.com? Do you build Wix websites?
No. We are not affiliated with Wix.com in any way. PPWix Website Services is an independent development studio. That said, we do build, service, and support Wix websites when requested by clients.
What is technical SEO, and how is it different from regular SEO?
Technical SEO focuses on site structure, code quality, performance, indexing, crawlability, and schema—everything search engines rely on to properly understand and rank your website. We focus on the technical foundation, not content marketing or blogging strategies.
Can you take over an existing website?
Absolutely. We frequently take over existing websites, audit them for issues, clean up performance or security problems, and transition them into a stable, supported environment.
How do you handle website security?
We implement security best practices including server hardening, SSL, firewall rules, secure authentication, backups, and ongoing monitoring to protect your site from threats.
Do you provide credit card processing?
Yes. We offer credit card processing for online, in-store, and mobile transactions. As a broker, we help match businesses with the right payment solution instead of locking you into a single provider.
Why should I choose PPWix Website Services over a typical web agency?
Because we focus on how websites work, not just how they look. Clients choose us for custom development, technical expertise, ongoing support, and the peace of mind that comes from having one trusted technical partner.
What’s the difference between website design and website development?
Website design focuses on how your site looks and how users interact with it. Website development focuses on how your site functions—custom code, performance, integrations, security, and scalability. We specialize in development while supporting clean, effective design.
What platforms do you support?
We work with WordPress, Wix, custom PHP-based systems, and other major web platforms. Our focus is on choosing the right solution for your business—not forcing everything into one system.
Do you offer ongoing website maintenance?
Yes. We provide managed website maintenance including updates, backups, security hardening, uptime monitoring, and performance optimization. This ensures your website stays stable, secure, and up to date.
Do you provide web hosting?
Yes. We offer managed hosting solutions designed for performance, reliability, and security. Hosting with us means your website is actively monitored and supported—not just parked on a server.
Do you build custom functionality or plugins?
Yes. We specialize in custom development, including custom plugins, integrations, and features tailored to how your business operates. We do not rely solely on prebuilt solutions.
Do you work with small businesses or only large companies?
We work with businesses of all sizes—from small local companies to growing multi-location operations. Our approach scales with your needs.
Will I be locked into a long-term contract?
No unnecessary lock-ins. Our goal is to earn long-term relationships through reliability, transparency, and results—not restrictive contracts.
