Frequently Asked Questions
We understand stepping into the digital world can be daunting. Our FAQs are here to guide you through our collaborative process, ensuring a seamless and supportive experience.
SEO is a technique of getting more visitors through search engines’ free, organic, or natural search results. The goal of an SEO campaign is to boost your website’s ranking on search engine results pages. Ranking higher in Google SERPs can improve your online visibility and results in more conversions.
Search engines use hundreds of factors before ranking a website. An SEO expert optimizes your website for these factors to make it appealing to search engine bots as well as humans.
Our process is simple and can be broken down into 4 basic steps: Discovery, Development, Refinement, and Delivery. Our Discovery phase is arguably the most important step in the entire creative process.
It’s here that together we’ll define your project’s goals, create a list of deliverables, and set timelines. It’s important that you be open, responsive, and available during all stages of the process.
Once discovery is complete, we transition smoothly between the remaining 3 phases culminating in the flawless launch of your new website!

The North Star team primarily delivers WordPress Development services. Following consultation, most clients recognize the value/benefit of rebuilding their sites in WordPress which often include access to better features, improved optimization and more opportunity to leverage SEO techniques.
That being said, we do our best to meet client’s were they are. If you’re super attached to your non-wordpress platform, it’s likely we can still help you succeed within that space.
