Web Design Prices
I don't have the overheads of a large, or even medium sized, company so my fees are consequently lower than those you'll find elsewhere.
As each project is tailored to individual needs, I can't quote prices without
first discussing your requirements,
- it really depends on how much time it will take me to write your site.
As a general indication, you should get a 5 page site for about £350.
This would include:
Homepage
Up to 4 additional pages including a contact page.
Logo design if required
Client supplied & stock graphics
Maximum 3 photographs per page
Your own domain name - e.g. "www.yourname.co.uk"
New Domain name registration (or transfer of URL if already registered)
12 months free hosting (£75 per annum in subsequent years)
Submission to 700 search engines.
Unlimited email addresses e.g you@yourdomainname.co.uk
[Original graphics, animated GIF images, Flash© graphics and sound files can all be incorporated for an extra charge.]
A note of caution : There are companies that may tempt you with ' why pay someone else when you can do it yourself with our easy d-i-y online web-site generator.' It's true that their initial up-front payment may be a lot less than you would have to pay for a tailor-made site, that's to be expected. But look closer and you'll find the catch, a monthly hosting charge, typically £15 - 20. That's £180 to £250 each and every year.
I charge £75 a year for hosting, with the first year free - and that includes unlimited emails. Which will be cheaper in the long run?
