CHOOSING HOW TO BUILD
Work with me,
an agency, or a DIY platform?
Different working models suit different needs. Here is how a direct independent studio fits alongside the alternatives.
Swipe the table to compare all three options →
| What matters | Padron Studio | Agency team | DIY platform |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who builds it | Ismel, directly | An assigned team; structure varies | You, using the platform tools |
| Starting cost | One page from $350 Business site from $800 | Quote depends on provider and scope | Plan fees, add-ons and your time |
| Communication | Email and written feedback with me | Contact and process vary by agency | Platform support; you manage the build |
| Custom features | Apps and integrations scoped separately | Depends on the team and proposal | Limited by the platform and add-ons |
| Future changes | Basic care from $39/month or separate quotes | Support terms depend on the agreement | You make changes or hire help |
| A good fit when | You want one developer and a clear written scope | You need several specialties or a larger team | You prefer to build and maintain it yourself |
This compares working models, not every provider. Agency capabilities and platform plans vary.

QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU START
A few useful answers.
Have something else in mind? Write to me and tell me what you need.
Do I need to book a call?
No. Start with the inquiry form or email. We can discuss your goals, scope and feedback in writing.
Can you improve my current website?
Yes, including WordPress websites. Share the link and what needs attention: content, layout, forms or performance.
How long does a website take?
A small website may take around 1–2 weeks once the scope and content are ready. Your proposal will include a project-specific timeline.
How do payments and revisions work?
The usual arrangement is a 50% deposit and the remaining 50% after approval, before launch. Website projects include 2 rounds of design revisions. Extra work is agreed separately.
Can you help with hosting and future changes?
Yes. I can help with hosting and domain setup, and quote ongoing updates separately. Your proposal will explain recurring costs and what support includes.
Will this guarantee leads or rankings?
No one can guarantee those outcomes. The focus is useful content, a clear website and reliable ways for customers to contact you.
Do you use AI in your work?
Yes. I use AI-assisted tools where they help with development, research and drafting. I remain responsible for reviewing the work and delivering the agreed project.
