Frequently Asked Questions

You have questions? We have answers.

As a premier Columbus web design company, Social Firm stands apart through our marketing-first approach to custom website design services. Unlike other website design companies that focus primarily on aesthetics, we deliver high-quality websites specifically designed to generate leads and drive business growth. Our team begins by understanding your specific industry challenges and business goals before creating a tailored website strategy. We integrate proven conversion principles, strategic content placement, and SEO best practices into every design. Our satisfied clients consistently report increased website traffic, higher conversion rates, and a higher volume of customer inquiries as direct outcomes of our work.

We primarily build websites on WordPress, the world's most popular and flexible content management system. WordPress allows us to create custom, scalable websites that are easy for our clients to update and maintain. For e-commerce sites, we offer a Shopify solution or a WordPress solution with WooCommerce, depending on your specific needs. Our development team is also experienced with custom HTML/CSS development for specialized projects. We'll recommend the best platform for your specific business requirements while ensuring your site remains secure, fast, and easy to manage.

SEO is built into every step of our website design process, not added as an afterthought. This includes proper site architecture, optimized code structure, mobile-responsive design, and fast loading speeds—all critical technical SEO factors. Our content team creates SEO-focused copy with strategic keyword placement, while our developers implement schema markup, XML sitemaps, and other technical elements that help search engines properly index your site. Every website we build includes comprehensive analytics integration so you can track performance and ROI. This foundation ensures your website is primed for visibility in search results from day one.

Our comprehensive website design process includes four key phases. We begin with a discovery and planning phase, where we understand your business goals, target audience, and competitive landscape. Next, our content team develops compelling, conversion-focused website copy. The design phase follows, where our professional website design team creates custom layouts and visual elements that align with your brand. Finally, our development team builds your website on a staging server, performs thorough quality assurance testing, and launches your site with zero downtime. Throughout the process, you'll work with a dedicated project manager who ensures clear communication and timely delivery.

For most standard business websites, our typical timeline from kickoff to launch is 6-8 weeks. More complex websites with custom functionality or e-commerce capabilities may take 8-12 weeks. The specific timeline depends on the size of your website, the complexity of your requirements, and how quickly you can provide feedback during the review stages. We follow a structured process with clear milestones to keep your project on track and ensure timely delivery. Throughout the project, your dedicated project manager will keep you informed of progress and timelines.

Website launch is just the beginning of our relationship. We offer comprehensive website maintenance and support plans that include regular updates, security monitoring, performance optimization, and content updates. Our hosting packages include redundant backups, security scanning, and technical support. We also provide detailed analytics reporting to track your website's performance and identify opportunities for optimization. Many clients transition into our digital marketing services after launch to maximize the effectiveness of their new website through SEO, content marketing, and digital advertising strategies that drive qualified traffic to their new site.

Matt Erney
STRATEGIC MARKETING DIRECTOR
After founding Social Firm in 2010, I learned that having a healthy business online requires an equal balance of messaging, design and marketing. My vision is to help businesses compete in the marketplace by simplifying, clarifying and then amplifying their message.

I currently lead the Strategic Marketing team at Social Firm. I believe that to achieve greatness, one must be intentional and move quickly with focus beyond one’s self. I love Columbus and am energized by helping businesses realize their digital potential.
Jason Willis
CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Like many in the design world, I started out as a freelance. My early career was on the sales and marketing side of business, and I’ve worked with, and for several large companies. However, my greatest joy is helping and sharing in the success of locally owned organizations.

When I’m not tailgating at an OSU game or playing tennis, I love traveling and creating new experiences with my best girl Kelly and my "little gentleman" dog Charlie. I like visiting all the new restaurants popping up around town and seeing which one can make the best Old Fashioned.
Julie Englerth
CLIENT ENGAGEMENT MANAGER
Julie is fully remote and hails from Longview, Texas, deep in the heart of the “Piney Woods” of East Texas where she lives with her husband and three amazing kids. She is also an experienced worship leader at her local church where her husband is a full-time worship pastor. Julie is passionate about encouraging and empowering people around her, leading worship, leading small groups at her church, or spending time with her loved ones.

She works closely with Matt in day-to-day communications and strategic planning. She has a knack for learning new things quickly!
Justin Kline
Web Developer
Like many in the web design world, I started out building websites for small projects and grew into a career focused on helping businesses and organizations strengthen their online presence. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve worked as a WordPress Designer and Developer, building websites for a wide range of clients, including many charity and faith-based organizations, focused on creating clean, easy-to-use sites that reflect each mission clearly. I enjoy taking ideas and turning them into simple, effective websites that help organizations connect with people and share what they do in a meaningful way.

Outside of work, I spend time with my wife and kids, enjoy music, strong coffee, and a great cheeseburger!
Ally Gatien
DIGITAL SPECIALIST
Since graduating from the University of Dayton in 2021 with a focus in Marketing, I have worked for both a small local media agency and a large television station. In my professional career, I am most recently coming from a Digital Sales Coordinator role where I was able to focus in on all Digital Marketing tactics after learning about the world of broadcast TV. I am passionate about helping others and I look forward to being able to help countless local businesses as a Digital Specialist on a more efficient and effective scale!
Geno Marinelli
DIGITAL SPECIALIST
A fresh graduate from The Ohio State University, I’m excited to absorb as much as I possibly can! With prior experience in both advertising creative and strategy, I’m excited to learn from the best. I enjoy staying ahead of the curve, understanding or contextualizing the latest trends and developments in tech and Marketing. If there’s a disruptor, I want to know how it works, why it’s working, and if it can work for us.

As a Digital Marketing Specialist, I will assist in strategy, implementing changes and new initiatives on behalf of our clients helping them to reach their goals and achieve results. My favorite part of any final reveal is the before and after; the side-by-side comparison of the old and the new motivates me to always be looking for new and innovative ideas.
Terence Womble
CONTENT MANAGER
I spent the first half of my career working in public relations and marketing mostly in New York City but also in Toronto, Philadelphia and Columbus. Even with clients as diverse as Philip Morris, The Philadelphia Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Shakespeare in Central Park, CAPA, Jazz Arts Group, or Broadway shows, the common theme has been compelling stories. Helping craft and share stories for our clients is my passion.

Other passions? Sure. Tennis, jazz, classical music and classic disco; reading, documentaries, fact-based dramas, and forensic crime shows. I also enjoy a perfectly mixed and presented Manhattan – up or on the rocks.
Sheena Erney
ACCOUNTING
I spent over 10 years in corporate banking and quit corporate life to be a stay-at-home mom before my second child turned one. I love taking my four little ones on adventures, but I missed the hustle and bustle of work life. It’s exciting to work for a small business where we can so easily stay up to date and develop our processes as business needs change. Best of all, I get to work with my husband!

When I'm not working, I enjoy golf, reading, traveling and playing cards. Watching our four children learn and grow is one of the greatest joys of my life.
Nick May
STRATEGIC MARKETING TEAM LEADER
With a foundation in digital marketing, analytics, and strategic leadership, I’ve learned that sustainable growth happens when strategy, data, and execution work in alignment. My approach centers on building marketing systems that are intentional, measurable, and designed to scale — helping businesses move from scattered efforts to focused momentum. At Social Firm. I guide our Strategic Marketing team in developing clear roadmaps that connect brand positioning, digital performance, and revenue growth.

When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me on the golf course, at the range, or out camping somewhere off the grid. I value time with my son and love being outdoors — whether that’s hiking, sitting around a campfire, or just getting outside with my dog. Staying active, unplugging when I can, and spending quality time with family keeps me grounded and energized.
