Questions
Web design and video questions, answered.
What people in Columbus, Greenwood, Greensburg and Bloomington ask before they hire me.
Working with me
Who builds websites in Columbus, Indiana?
I do. I’m Grant Emerick, and Reinforced Creative is my business in Columbus. I design and code websites for local businesses, and I film video for them too.
How much does a website cost in Columbus, Indiana?
It depends on how many pages you need, who writes them, your photos and any extra features. You get one written price on your own proposal page before anything starts, and it doesn’t move unless you ask for more.
Why don’t you list prices?
Because every job is different, and a number that fits one business misleads the next. You get your real price, in writing, before anything starts.
Do you work outside Columbus?
Yes. Greenwood, Greensburg and Bloomington are all close, and websites can be built from anywhere. Video work happens on site, so we pick a day. Areas I serve.
How fast do you reply?
By the end of the next working day.
Can I see work you’ve done?
Yes. Ask, and I’ll send you sites and videos I’ve made.
Websites
How long does it take to build a website?
Once I have your form, photos, wording and logo, you get a private link to the whole site within a week. Then one round of changes, and it goes live once it’s paid.
Do I own my website when it’s done?
Yes. Once it’s paid in full, the site and its content are yours. Your domain, email, Google profile and Facebook page stay in your name, and you can take the site with you any time.
Do you use WordPress or Wix?
No. Every site is hand coded. Wix sites can’t be moved, and WordPress needs plugin updates to stay safe. Yours is plain, quick files that any developer can take over.
Will my website show up on Google?
It’s built for it: one heading per page, quick on a phone, proper titles, a sitemap and your business details. I can also set up your Google Business Profile, which puts you on Google Maps. Nobody can honestly promise rankings, so I don’t.
Can I make changes after it’s live?
Yes. The first 30 days of fixes and small changes are included. After that, an upkeep plan covers small changes you text me, and one plan adds a login so you can change your own rates and photos.
Do you redesign websites I already have?
Yes. I rebuild it from scratch on the same domain, so the address people know keeps working.
Social media video
How many social media videos does a small business need?
Enough to post steadily. One morning can cover about five weeks: an about us video, a hype video, three shorts and raw clips.
Do you film at my business?
Yes. Filming happens where the work happens: your shop, your job site, your trucks.
Can I use the videos however I want?
For your business, yes: anywhere, for good. I keep the copyright, and the music is licensed.
Wedding films
How long is a wedding highlight film?
About two minutes. Long enough to tell the story of the day, short enough that you’ll rewatch it and share it.
When do we get our wedding film?
Your delivery date is written on your proposal page before you book.

Tell me what you’re working on.
