How it works
Everything in your name.
The domain, the accounts and your customers' data stay in your name, and you get a licence to use the code. The studio is added as a user, and you can remove it.
One studio, start to finish.
The studio you talk to on the first call designs the site, builds it, puts it live and looks after it. Nothing is passed to a subcontractor along the way.
A price in writing first.
After the first call you get a written quote that holds for sixty days. You pay half when you sign, a quarter when the preview works, and a quarter at launch.
