Does Sinh Vũ take on small projects?

Sinh Vũ serves individuals, SMBs, and enterprises. Each tier has a suitable scope and approach. Small project clients often start with a 30-minute Coffee chat (free) or a Workshop/Audit to get the right direction before investing.

Self-brief, or do you need Sinh Vũ to assist with the brief?

Both are fine. Door 01 Detailed form for you if the scope is clear. Door 02 Chat with Sinh Vũ (5 minutes, AI asks the right questions) for you if the scope is unclear and needs consultation first.

How long from brief to the first deliverable?

Sinh Vũ responds within 24 hours. Detailed proposals within 48–72 hours. The first deliverable depends on the scope, typically 2–6 weeks from contract signing and deposit receipt.

What industries does Sinh Vũ work in?

300+ projects across 16 major sectors: F&B, Cosmetics, Fashion, Real Estate, Technology and SaaS, Manufacturing, Education, Healthcare, Finance, Travel, Agriculture, B2B professional services, and other sectors.

Is there a contract and confidentiality?

Yes. Every project signs a standard service contract from Sinh Vũ Studio, including clear confidentiality (NDA) and intellectual property terms. Briefs are stored separately, accessible only to the responsible team.

Choose website platform: drag-and-drop, open source, or custom build

Quick summary

There is no platform that wins absolutely. Drag-and-drop builders (Webflow, Framer) are suitable when quick deployment is needed and a small team can edit content; open-source (WordPress) is suitable for long-term blogging, with ready-made features and deep management autonomy; custom builds (Next.js) are suitable for high speed, custom design conversion flows, and complex system integration. Sinh Vũ chooses based on the operational needs of each client, without defaulting to a specific technology.

Not needed when.

choosing based on technology trends, not operational methods
choose to create a simple introduction page

This question appears in almost every web project that Sinh Vũ consults on. The answer always starts with a counter-question: after delivery, who will maintain this website, and how skilled are they? The right platform is not necessarily the most modern one, but one that aligns with the real people and processes of your business.

Three directions, three different problems

Creating drag-and-drop interfaces (Webflow, Framer): Quick to launch, intuitive interfaces, allowing non-technical users to edit basic content after guidance. Initial costs are lower than custom builds. However, you depend on the provider's platform: if they raise prices or change policies, the cost of switching will be significant.

Open source code (WordPress): Complete control over the source code, the largest feature ecosystem available, deep control over technical search factors (SEO) such as URLs, meta tags, and technical files. In return, it requires thorough initial configuration and regular maintenance, especially plugin updates.

Create a custom solution (Next.js and similar): clean HTML, the highest loading speed, complete control over the user experience flow, and integration with internal systems. In return, it relies on developers for almost every change, with the highest build and maintenance costs among the three options.

Five questions for self-diagnosis

Who will edit the website after delivery? An internal team that is not technically savvy will find drag-and-drop or WordPress more suitable. If there is an internal developer, building something new will truly unleash potential.
Is the content update frequency high? For blogs, news, and long-term articles, WordPress has a more mature content management system (CMS). For pages that change infrequently, drag-and-drop is sufficient.
Need to integrate any systems? Connecting accounting software, CRM, or a separate order flow should be built separately for better control.
Is search ranking important? All three approaches can perform well in SEO if configured correctly. Build specifically for the highest technical score, but the gap is not too large if WordPress and Webflow are set up properly.
What is the long-term maintenance budget? Building separately incurs costs to maintain a high-tech team. Drag-and-drop incurs monthly platform fees. WordPress may cost less if the internal team can manage it.

Common mistakes when choosing platforms

Creating a separate build for the simple introduction page, then the internal team cannot edit a single line after handover, requiring a programmer for each adjustment.
Choose drag-and-drop, only to discover later that the platform does not support specific features, requiring a complete redo and losing all previous design work.
Listening to advice from a unit that excels in only one platform, they will naturally suggest tools they are familiar with, not the tools that are suitable for you.
Neglecting long-term maintenance costs, only comparing initial production costs and then being surprised after the first year.

The website platform is an operational decision, not an aesthetic one. Choosing the wrong platform may not make the website look bad immediately, but it will make everything that follows more expensive and slower.
Practical experience, Sinh Vũ Studio

The viewpoint of Sinh Vũ

Sinh Vũ does not tie itself to a single technology. Depending on the project, Sinh Vũ may suggest Webflow, Framer, WordPress, Next.js, or Shopify, based on the actual operational needs of the client rather than trends or the tools the Sinh Vũ team is most familiar with.

There is a clear boundary that Sinh Vũ maintains: for complex systems like banking software, internal ERP, or large-scale e-commerce platforms, that is the responsibility of specialized software providers. Sinh Vũ states this clearly rather than accepting it and delivering half-heartedly.

The correct starting point is not "which platform is the hottest this year" but: who is on your team, what they can do, how often the website needs to change, and where the business wants to go in the next three years. From there, you can choose the tools.

The tool brings back.

Frequently asked questions

Is Webflow vendor-locked?

Yes, this is a real risk of drag-and-drop platforms. When the platform raises prices or ceases service, migrating is more labor-intensive compared to open-source solutions. You need to consider whether the advantage of rapid deployment is worth that dependency, depending on your business scale and long-term plans.

Is WordPress safe? I've heard it gets hacked often?

WordPress itself is not less secure than other platforms; the risks mainly come from outdated plugins and loose configurations. Proper configuration, regular updates, and using reputable plugins make it quite safe for most small and medium-sized businesses.

If built with Next.js, will my content team be able to make edits later?

Usually not, unless paired with a separate content management system (CMS) like Sanity or Contentful. Building separately allows for maximum technical control but relies on developers for every change. You need to factor in the costs of maintaining a technical team or long-term partners in this decision.
