Which languages should my Houston website support?+
It depends entirely on your catchment, and it's worth actually checking rather than guessing. Spanish is the broadest addition across most of the city. Vietnamese matters substantially in the southwest and around Bellaire. Chinese matters in the Chinatown district and Sugar Land. We'd look at where your existing customers come from and recommend one, not all — each language version is a permanent maintenance commitment and it should earn its place.
Do you build software for oil and gas companies?+
Yes — quoting and RFQ portals, inspection and job-tracking systems, document control, and customer portals for order and project status. What we don't do is anything touching real-time control systems, SCADA or operational safety systems; that's specialist safety-critical engineering and it belongs with a firm that does only that. We'll tell you which side of that line your project falls on early.
How does the Texas Medical Center affect local marketing?+
It creates an unusual dynamic: an enormous concentration of healthcare employers, patients travelling in from across the region and internationally, and a services economy around all of it. If you're a practice near the TMC you're competing with world-known institutions on brand, so the winnable strategy is specificity — a named sub-speciality, a neighbourhood, a language — rather than trying to out-rank a major hospital system on general terms.
Houston floods. Does that affect the website?+
It affects the operations more than the build, and it's worth planning for. Businesses here need a way to update customers fast when they're closed or relocated — a site you can edit yourself in two minutes, an alert banner, and automated messaging to booked customers. We build that in for Houston clients as a matter of course rather than as an upsell.
Are you actually based in Houston?+
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 Houston 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 Houston 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 TX?+
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 Houston?+
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 $799.
