How should I plan around the student calendar?+
Work backwards from September. The arrival wave means a large cohort choosing providers in a compressed window, so you want your visibility, reviews and any campaigns already in place by mid-August — not launched in September when everyone else is competing. January is a smaller second wave. Practically that means starting SEO work in spring for an autumn payoff, because rankings don't appear on demand.
We sell to hospitals and research labs. Does local SEO matter?+
Less than content depth. Procurement and lab managers search for capabilities and specifications, not for local suppliers, and they often start months before purchasing. What gets you into that process is technical content that answers the research-stage question, plus credibility signals — named people, real credentials, actual institutional experience. We'd build that rather than a local package.
Boston agencies quoted me $30,000. What's different about your price?+
The cost base. Our engineers are in Hyderabad and Warangal — no Boston lease, no Boston salaries, no sales team. The stack and standards are the same and you own the code either way. The genuine trade-off is that you won't have someone in the room, and for some projects that's worth paying for. We'll tell you if we think yours is one.
Do you handle HIPAA requirements for a medical practice site?+
For the public site and standard booking, yes — we build with encryption, access control and appropriate data handling, and we'll use HIPAA-eligible services for anything touching patient data. What we won't do is tell you your setup is HIPAA-compliant; compliance is an organisational determination involving your BAAs, policies and legal counsel, not something a developer certifies. We'll build to your compliance officer's requirements and say plainly where the boundary is.
Are you actually based in Boston?+
No — and we say so on the page rather than renting a virtual office address to imply otherwise. Our team is in Hyderabad and Warangal, India, and we work with Boston businesses remotely: video calls, WhatsApp, and a live preview link you can open at any point during the build. What is genuinely local is the work itself — your Google Business Profile, the Boston search terms we target, the competitors we benchmark you against, and the schema that tells Google exactly which area you serve.
How do I pay you from MA?+
Wire or ACH, Zelle, credit card through Stripe, PayPal or Wise — invoiced in USD, with a proper invoice for your accountant. Payment is milestone-based: 40% to begin, the remainder as you approve deliverables. There is no retainer and no minimum contract on the build work.
What are your hours compared to Boston?+
India runs 9.5 to 13.5 hours ahead depending on your time zone and the season, which works in your favour more than against it: work happens while you sleep, and you review it in the morning. Calls are scheduled for your evening, which is our morning. Anything urgent gets a WhatsApp reply the same day.
What if the project goes wrong?+
You own the code, the domain, the hosting account and every asset from the first day — not at handover, from the beginning. If you stop working with us, everything is already yours and there is nothing to extract. The price is agreed in writing before work starts. Websites start at $499.
