Agency Questions, Direct Answers
White Label WordPress FAQ for Agencies
A practical answer hub covering Softvole’s agency-only model, WordPress and WooCommerce production, pricing, timelines, white-label boundaries, ownership, redesigns, maintenance, project changes, and onboarding.
How to use this page: the answers below give the short version. When a question belongs to a deeper commercial or operational topic, the answer links to the page that owns that intent, so the FAQ supports rather than duplicates the rest of the site.

How We Work
Review briefing, scoping, design, development, feedback, QA, handoff, and scope changes.
Does Softvole work with business owners directly?
No. Softvole is structured as an agency-only production partner. Marketing, SEO, design, branding, ecommerce, and web agencies keep the end-client relationship while Softvole works behind the scenes.
What kinds of agencies can partner with Softvole?
Softvole works with agencies that sell or support WordPress and WooCommerce work, including SEO agencies, marketing firms, branding studios, design agencies, ecommerce agencies, and web agencies.
Can an agency start with only one project?
Yes. A partner can start with a single build, redesign, or WooCommerce project. There is no requirement to commit to a long-term project retainer before evaluating the delivery relationship.
How is the Softvole delivery team structured for agency work?
It means partner work is handled by experienced designers and developers rather than being used as a training environment for junior WordPress fundamentals. A dedicated project lead coordinates the delivery.
Which platforms does Softvole focus on?
Softvole focuses on the WordPress ecosystem, including WordPress, WooCommerce, Elementor, ACF-driven content structures, Figma design handoff, redesigns, and website care.
Can Softvole build a WordPress site from a finished design?
Yes. Agencies can send approved Figma files for development. The project still needs any functional requirements, responsive behavior notes, integrations, and content responsibilities that are not obvious from the static design.
Can Softvole design the site if our agency only has a brief?
Yes. Brief-first projects can include wireframes, high-fidelity Figma design, WordPress development, QA, and handoff, subject to the agreed project scope.
What is the typical timeline for a standard business website?
A standard business website typically takes 12 to 19 days from approved brief to launch-ready delivery. Larger, ecommerce, migration-heavy, or unusually urgent projects can require a different schedule.
How does Softvole handle project pricing?
Project work is scoped and quoted at a fixed price before production starts. The agreed price applies to the agreed scope. New requirements introduced later are identified and priced before extra work begins.
What are Softvole starting prices?
For development from an approved design, landing pages start at $1,200 and WordPress websites start at $2,400 for up to about five unique templates. When Softvole handles both design and development, business websites start at $3,500. WooCommerce starts at $4,500 from an approved design or $6,500 for design + build. Website redesign with migration starts at $3,500, while approved-design redesign work can be quoted on scope. Ongoing website care starts at $149 per site each month.
Can our agency set its own client price and markup?
Yes. Softvole provides the agency-facing production cost. The partner agency controls its own proposal, client price, invoice, packaging, and margin.
Does Softvole communicate with our end client?
Not in the normal white-label model. The partner agency owns end-client communication. Softvole stays behind the scenes and does not approach the client directly.
Can Softvole sign an NDA?
Yes. NDAs can be signed on request when the partner agency wants an explicit confidentiality agreement around the relationship or project.
Does Softvole put its name or credit on delivered websites?
No. White-label delivery means no Softvole footer credit, watermark, or client-facing branding is added to the finished work.
Who owns the completed website and files?
On final payment, the partner agency owns the delivered website, design files, and code. The handoff is not tied to a Softvole hosting lock-in.
Can Softvole work with the tools our agency already uses?
Yes. Briefs and feedback can move through the agency’s existing workflow, including email, Slack, Trello, shared documents, or calls. Softvole assigns a project lead to coordinate delivery on its side.
Can Softvole take over an unfinished WordPress project?
Often, yes. The existing build should be reviewed first so code quality, plugins, templates, remaining functionality, and technical debt are visible before deciding whether continuing or rebuilding is the lower-risk option.
Can Softvole redesign a site without intentionally changing every URL?
Yes. Redesign projects can preserve valuable URLs and ranking content where appropriate, map redirects where URLs change, and verify migration controls before launch. No redesign partner can guarantee rankings, but avoidable migration risk can be managed.
Can Softvole build or rebuild WooCommerce stores?
Yes. WooCommerce work can include storefront templates, catalog architecture, variations, filters, checkout, payment gateways, shipping rules, subscriptions, integrations, migration requirements, and transaction-focused QA.
Does Softvole migrate WooCommerce data?
Migration can be included when scoped. The agency should identify what must move, such as products, variations, customers, orders, coupons, subscription data, media, URLs, and connected systems.
Can launched sites move into an ongoing care plan?
Yes. Agencies can move WordPress and WooCommerce sites into website care for the agreed mix of updates, backups, uptime monitoring, security, performance, and technical support.
Is website care the same as unlimited development?
No. Routine maintenance and technical care are different from new pages, redesigns, major feature development, or large content projects. Work outside the care scope is identified separately.
Can Softvole maintain sites it did not originally build?
Often, yes. Existing sites should be reviewed before onboarding so unsupported plugins, malware, broken backups, major technical debt, or high-risk functionality are visible before recurring responsibility begins.
Where does Softvole serve agency partners?
Softvole works with agency partners across the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Europe, and the GCC, including agencies whose own end clients may be located in different markets.
How does Softvole handle a mid-project scope change?
The project lead separates the new request from the approved scope, clarifies its production impact, and prices it before additional work starts. The agency can then decide how to handle the change with its client.
What happens if our deadline is unusually tight?
Raise the deadline during scoping. Urgency can affect scheduling and pricing, especially when content, design, integrations, migration, or ecommerce requirements are still unresolved.
Can an agency use Softvole only for overflow capacity?
Yes. Softvole can work alongside an in-house team and cover overflow builds, specialist WooCommerce work, redesigns, or recurring site care without requiring the agency to replace its internal team.
How can we evaluate Softvole before sending a large portfolio?
Start with one representative project, review the case studies, compare the delivery model on Why Softvole, and use a strategy call to test how the team scopes a real brief.
What information should we send for the fastest project estimate?
Send the client goal, page or template list, design status, content status, required functionality, integrations, existing site URL if relevant, ecommerce rules if relevant, and target deadline.
How do we get started?
Use the free strategy call to discuss fit and scope, or send project context through the contact page.
