05 / The name

Most businesses don’t need to start over. They need what they’ve built, made new.

That’s the idea behind Novareweb. You’ve already earned a reputation, written your content and chosen your web address. What’s missing is a site that’s clearer, faster and easier to keep up.

We’re a small team that builds for small and local businesses (trades, clinics, shops, restaurants, studios) whose website was built years ago and never quite kept pace with the business.

  • Plain languageWe explain what we find without the jargon.
  • Keep what worksWe reuse the content, photos and address worth keeping.
  • Built to lastFast, accessible and easy to edit, with maintenance if you want it.

06 / Questions

Things people ask first.

Will I lose my Google ranking if we redesign?

A redesign is planned to protect what already works. We note what ranks today, keep the content and addresses that perform, and redirect old addresses to new ones so people and search engines can still find their way.

Can’t you just fix the site I have?

Sometimes, yes. The audit tells us whether a lighter refresh will do, or whether the foundations (an old platform, unmaintained plugins, a layout built for desktops) make a rebuild the better investment.

Do I keep my domain and content?

Yes. Your domain stays yours. We reuse the text and photos worth keeping, and we improve the rest together.

What happens after the new site goes live?

Your choice. You can take over with a simple handover, or we can look after it with ongoing maintenance: updates, backups, security checks and small edits.
