Frequently Asked Questions

We've organized common questions about our service. If you can't find what you're looking for, reach out to us.

Website build, pricing & operations

What kinds of businesses do you build websites for?

Mainly small service businesses of 1–10 people: restaurants, cafés, hair salons, aesthetics and beauty, clinics, and shops serving tourists. For other types of business, we will tell you during consultation whether we can help.

What is included in a website build?

The basics are a business introduction, services/menu, location, opening hours and contact details, one basic inquiry form, and a mobile-friendly layout. Foundational SEO setup and installing the basic website analytics code are included too. The detailed scope, such as the number of pages, is explained during consultation.

How much do I pay in the first year?

Starter is a ₩390,000 build fee plus the ₩110,000 first-year operations fee, ₩500,000 in total. After Starter ends, the standard build is a ₩490,000 build fee plus the ₩110,000 operations fee, ₩600,000 in total for the first year.

How much do I pay from the second year?

If you keep the site running, you renew the required annual website operations fee of ₩110,000. If you use Budeul Care, the Care fee applies separately.

What does the annual operations fee include?

It covers standard domain registration and renewal, the Vercel deployment environment, SSL secure connection, domain connection management, and a basic check when the site becomes unreachable. It does not include text or image edits, design changes, adding pages or features, regular SEO checks, visit data reports, or translation and content writing.

Are all domains included?

Standard-priced .com, .kr, and .co.kr domains are included. If you want a premium domain or one priced far above normal, we agree on it beforehand and the difference may be charged.

Is the monthly care service required?

Budeul Care is optional. The required annual website operations fee of ₩110,000 — for deployment, a standard domain, SSL, and basic operation — is not. If you want regular content updates and ongoing management, you can choose Basic at ₩55,000/month, Plus at ₩110,000/month, or Pro from ₩220,000/month. What each plan covers is different.

How is the operations fee different from Budeul Care?

The operations fee is the required annual cost for deployment, a standard domain, SSL secure connection, and basic technical operation. Budeul Care is an optional monthly service for customers who want text and image edits and ongoing checks.

If I use Care, can I skip the operations fee?

No. The operations fee and Budeul Care are different services. Even with Care, the ₩110,000 annual operations fee for basic site operation applies separately.

Can I still get edits without Care?

Yes. A site without Care stays in its basic operating state as long as the operations fee is renewed. Edits such as text or photo changes, adding pages or features, and design changes are quoted per job as one-off website updates. Simple edits start from ₩33,000; page, design, and feature changes vary with the scope.

Do unused Care requests or hours roll over to the next month?

No. Unused time does not roll over: requests and work time not used in a given month are not carried over.

What happens if I go beyond the Care scope?

Work beyond the monthly request or time limit, or work that Care does not include, is reviewed and then quoted separately.

Are new pages or features included in Care?

Building whole new pages, large design changes, and new development such as booking, payment, or membership features are not included in Care and are quoted separately.

What happens if I don't renew?

We tell you about renewal before the contract ends. If the contract is not renewed, when the site stops, how long data is kept, and the site and domain transfer process follow a separate operations policy.

What materials do I need to prepare?

Your business introduction, services/menu and prices, photos, location and opening hours, and how customers can contact or book. The materials do not have to be perfect — we sort out what is needed together during consultation.

How long does it take?

It depends on the number of pages, languages, features, and how ready your materials are. We confirm your requested scope in consultation and then share an estimated schedule.

How many revisions are included?

We review the actual screens with you and revise within the agreed scope. The revision scope during the build is explained during consultation.

Can you improve my existing website?

Yes. We review your current site's structure and content and tell you in consultation whether improving it or building a new one makes more sense. If you want to check its current state first, you can use our search visibility audit.

Can you build multilingual sites in English, Japanese, and so on?

Yes. We can add pages in English, Japanese, Chinese, and other languages you need. Adding a basic multilingual page starts from ₩110,000 per language, and translation is quoted separately based on volume and language.

Do you guarantee visibility in search engines or AI services?

No. We do not guarantee top rankings for any search term, appearing in answers from AI services such as ChatGPT, or increases in visitors, customers, inquiries, or sales. We structure your information so search engines and AI services can understand and reference your business more easily.

How can I see visit data for my site?

The standard build includes installing the basic website analytics code. Checking and summarizing the data depends on what each Budeul Care plan covers, and advanced analytics setup such as custom events or conversion tracking is additional work.

Search & audit

What's the difference between SEO and AEO?

SEO optimizes your site so traditional search engines like Google can understand and surface it well. AEO structures your content so AI search services like ChatGPT and Gemini can understand your business and reference it in their answers. The two overlap in places, but they handle content and structure differently.

Can I use this if I don't have a Japanese-language site?

Yes. We start by diagnosing your current multilingual readiness, and if needed, we offer a separate service to build pages and content tailored to your target customer's language, such as Japanese.

Do I have to purchase a service after the diagnosis?

No. The diagnosis is simply a step to check your current status. Whether you move forward with improvement work afterward is entirely up to you, based on the results and your situation.

How do you measure results?

We track changes in search visibility and traffic using real data from GA4, Google Search Console, and similar tools. Our reports are based on actual, measurable data — never fabricated figures.
