WEB DESIGN PRICING The question everyone first asks about websites, is "How much will it cost?" The answer is difficult to give you because the cost depends on many factors. A site can cost just about anything -- from a few hundred dollars to many thousands! A web site can be one single page, or it can be a complex extravaganza with on-line sales products, sophisticated search capabilities, ecommerce, interactive custom programming and more. Sites which I design will be only informational, hobby or small business sites. I do not do gaming, interactive or ecommerce sites. I will also not do anything other than G rated sites. ie. no porn or sites with "iffy" content and no sites advertising designer dogs. OUR COSTS. First Page of Design - $400 This covers the creative design of your layout, background and borders unique to your site, colors, navigational links for the flow of your website and the use of our own graphics if you need them etc. It also covers the coding and submitting your site to all of the search engines. Your opening page will always be your most involved page and one which must attract attention. After all, this is why you are having a site made - to be seen and attract attention to your farm, business or hobby. Subsequent pages will often be a little less fancy or the same layout as the opening page. Subsequent Page Cost Some further pages (those which come after your opening page) simply do not take as long to design and therefore, according to what might be involved, could be discounted to pricing that might be as little as $50 per page. Once we communicate with you, we can narrow down an estimate to fit your budget and get an idea of how many pages you would need. Most people don't usually need more than 5 - 10 pages in a given site. However, every site is different and each page is different, so it's extrmely difficult to give an absolute price break-down, until I see what you have in mind. Costs can be also kept down, if you provide all the necessary text and pictures already cropped and properly sized. Changes you desire to website pages already made for you. Most future changes or additions to pages will be charged at $5. More involved changes which might be requested ie. new borders/backgrounds etc. will be priced accordingly. I do not usually charge for most picture touch-ups, cropping, tinting etc. However, special pictures (other than that which might appear on your Home/Opening page), will be charged at $50.00. |
