Our Pricing

Ah yes this is the important bit!

Nearly everything that you see on the internet today is quite easy to do.

We work with you to create the full list of details required ...
So that you know in advance how long it will take and how much it will cost.

After completing nearly 500 websites with graphic artists like yourself ...
We know how to make sure the right things are included to fit within your budget.

But even before all of the functionality is determined we are happy to let you know our thoughts on what we think the final cost is likely to be.

We do half a dozen or so estimates every day and we are happy to help with yours in any way.

To start - just let us know what you know about the project ...
And we will create an estimate for you and help you move the project through the next few steps.


What you can expect

Our pricing includes the development, construction, integration, testing, installation and delivery of the website. Basically it includes everything except the graphic art - which you send me along with any page templates that we are to follow.




For Example

For example - if by chance the website will be a simple product website (and you will see below that simple in some cases is really not so simple after all) then here are a few questions to ask your client as you discuss the project with them in the early phases.


  • Are there categories (and subcategories) for the products ?
  • Will the owner need to be able to edit these categories and subcategories?
  • Will the categories or subcategories require images as well ?
  • Will the home page nav bar need to change as new categories are added ?
  • Do the products come in sizes, colours, models, styles ?
  • Does the owner need to be able to edit these lists as well ?
  • Does the owner need to be able to indicate which combinations are available and in stock ?
  • Are the sizes, colours, models, styles consistent across all products ? (for example if the website will sell clothing - different size lists are used for jeans and shoes, or for rings and bracelets)
  • Are there products that the owner would like to mark as "Special" or "New" and have them automatically appear on the home page ?
  • Will the owner be using the site to manage their inventory levels so that products are not displayed when the last is sold online ?
  • Does an email to the owner detailing the purchase suffice or does the owner wish to see which items have been shipped and which have not, all items sold in January etc. ?
  • Are there special sales promotions that the owner would like to be able to configure (free shipping over certain levels, 3-for-2 offers ?
  • How are shipping costs to be calculated?
  • Are there recommended "associated" products that the site shows when someone adds an item to their list to purchase ?
