Frequently asked questions
How much does a website cost in Benin?
Between 150,000 and 1,500,000 XOF depending on the type of project. A landing page starts at 150,000 XOF, a showcase site between 300,000 and 600,000 XOF, an e-commerce site between 500,000 and 1,500,000 XOF. These prices include design, development and hosting for the first year.
Do I have to pay in full before the start?
No. 40% at signing to launch the project, 60% at final delivery after your approval. For longer projects (SaaS), monthly installments are possible.
What payment methods do you accept?
MTN Mobile Money, Orange Money and bank transfer. No Visa card or PayPal account needed.
What's the difference between a showcase site and an e-commerce site?
A showcase site presents your business and generates contacts (calls, emails). An e-commerce site lets your customers buy directly online and pay via Mobile Money — you manage orders from a dashboard.
Is maintenance after delivery included?
Yes — 3 months of maintenance are included in every project: bug fixes and security updates. Beyond that, a monthly contract is available starting at 50,000 XOF/month.
How long will it take to build my site?
1 to 2 weeks for a landing page, 2 to 4 weeks for a showcase site, 4 to 8 weeks for an e-commerce site. These timelines start once content is received (text, logos, photos).
Do you work with clients outside Benin?
Yes — clients in Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, Togo and the diaspora. Everything happens remotely: WhatsApp or Zoom call, mockups shared online, delivery by link.
Will my site be visible on Google?
Yes. Every project includes basic SEO: title/meta tags optimized for your industry and city, sitemap submitted to Google Search Console, speed optimized for African 4G.
