WEB DESIGN FEES
INCLUDE: Initial project planning and discussions
1-1.5 hrs,
guidance for your domain name and hosting set-up. Photo
and text editing, royalty-free stock photos plus
optimization procedures, keyword and key phrase
compilation, along with your custom design. Every website
project is different so a discussion to clarify your project will
provide the information needed to be able give you a
more precise proposal based on your requirements.
Generally you can expect a range
of $400-$1200 for your one-time design fees. Let's
discuss your project so you can know what to expect.
503-399-2091 and I will try to work with your budget.
A
minimum of 50%
as downpayment
is required to begin a project, or full payment may be
made in advance to ensure being added to the
schedule. I appreciate my clients very much and
make every effort to provide complete
satisfaction. My business experience and marketing skills are an
added bonus and your website can add so much to
your business. If you don't have a fully
optimized website, you don't have a working
website!
You can email or call me to discuss your
web project. Based on content, needs and features, I'll
be able to give you a very close estimate of the cost. My rates are extremely reasonable in the
custom web design market for the quality work I provide.
And I also include search engine optimization as part of
the process of creating a website that WORKS FOR YOU!
The average website is 3 pages and you can always add
more in the future.
Please
call to discuss your project (503) 399-2091.
Web Design Fees are payment for high-quality custom web
work plus search engine optimization.

Optimization Included
INTERACTIVE ONLINE FORMS: If you would like online
fill-in forms or other such applications, those
functions will require the services of a programmer. I
have two excellent programmers I work with, and I will
refer whichever one best fits your needs. The programmers
will do their own separate estimates and billing, so
those charges are not included in my design fees and you
will know the cost in advance.
A
SECOND MIRROR WEBSITE - Occasionally a
client asks to have a copy of their
programmed forms or their new website to use
as a 2nd website project. They expect the
cost to be very minimal because the work has
already been done. There are two problems
with this. This is not something I can
do as a responsible web designer because
search engines like Google frown upon
duplicate content, and will penalize sites
heavily for it. Your search engine rankings
will suffer as a result. Therefore, if you
want more web exposure in the form of an
extra site, the pages must contain
different, original content. Even if I'm
using a copy of the first website, there is
still time
involved in creating content that is
different enough to not be considered
a search engine duplication. Additional fees for changes
will be discussed prior to work being done.

Your outside costs
(other than
design fees), will be the domain name registration
fees (which can vary, but no more than $15 a year); a
hosting fee ($4.95 to $9.95 a month) paid to outside
sources of your choice. I can make recommendations if
you need guidance there but I don't
offer hosting or resell
hosting accounts.
All of our interactions
can be accomplished via email and there is no need for
time-consuming visits to my office or time spent on the
phone, but if you are local, I'm perfectly willing to
come to your place of business to discuss the project.
As soon as you provide me with the documents,
photographs, or any other text content you wish to include in
the website design, I can get started.
Once the project is completely paid
for it belongs to you entirely. I reserve no ownership
rights to your custom web design.
When I've started creating your
website project I will upload it to a private preview
website so you will be able to view the progress and
give me valuable feedback.
In the future, you may
want to make changes and updates to your website, and I
will be around to help you. Web updates and
maintenance are quickly accomplished, and billed at in 15 minute increments.
Website update maintenance plans are also available if
your site requires numerous ongoing updates.
If you need me to
redesign a page because you've made changes in your
business plans it will be just an hourly rate.
Contact me if you have questions, or need further
details.
