Question 1

Which custom web development agency should you choose in the Lille metropolitan area?

Accepted Answer

Fautho Consulting is a custom web development agency based in the Lille metropolitan area. We build high-performance websites and applications in Next.js, React and TypeScript for SMBs, local shops and artisans across the Hauts-de-France region, with a focus on performance, conversion and longevity. Unlike generalist agencies, custom development is our core business — no templates, no WordPress.

Question 2

What's the difference between a WordPress site and a custom-built site?

Accepted Answer

A WordPress site relies on a CMS and prefabricated themes or plugins shared by millions of sites, whereas a custom site is coded specifically for your needs. In practice, custom development (in Next.js/React) delivers better performance (load times, Core Web Vitals), stronger security (no vulnerable plugins to maintain), a unique design and full scalability. WordPress can be enough for a simple blog; for a site that must convert, load fast and last, custom is the better fit.

Question 3

How much does a custom Next.js website cost?

Accepted Answer

A custom Next.js showcase website starts from €2,500, and an e-commerce project from €7,000, depending on features. The price depends on the number of pages, integrations (payment, booking, CRM), the level of design and the content. We always provide a detailed, transparent quote before starting.

Question 4

Why choose a custom site over a template for an SMB?

Accepted Answer

For an SMB, a custom site stands out from competitors, loads faster and converts better than a generic template used by thousands of other businesses. A template imposes its limits (structure, performance, options) and quickly becomes expensive to evolve, whereas a custom build is shaped around your business goals, optimized for SEO and designed to last. It's an investment that stays profitable over several years.

Question 5

How long does it take to develop a custom website?

Accepted Answer

A custom showcase website usually takes 3 to 4 weeks, and an e-commerce project 5 to 8 weeks (more for a complex web-app), depending on scope. We provide a precise timeline from the start, and the first mockups generally arrive within the first week. Lead time mostly depends on how quickly you give feedback and on content availability (copy, images, access).

Question 6
