Website projects in Patras (and across Greece) often fail not because budget was missing, but because buyers hit known traps: quotes without deliverables, themes without maintenance, SEO “we’ll do later”, and hosting without backups. This is not another cost-criteria guide — it is a list of mistakes you pay for twice.
Mistakes 1–3: picking the lowest price without written scope; accepting a “ready site in days” without UX/SEO foundation; leaving content for later and launching with placeholders. Mistakes 4–5: buying a theme sold as “custom”; not asking who holds hosting/domain credentials. Mistakes 6–7: ignoring Core Web Vitals and security; skipping CMS training and post-launch support.
