How much does a web site cost with you?
There are many variables to factor into the cost. We will first need to have a consultation with you in order to quote a price.
The quoted prices are based on the size and complexity of the site. Keep in mind the more information you provide for us the easier
and less expensive it will be to create your site. Providing photos, logos, text content, etc will all decrease the price range of your site.
As a general rule, most small business design + development projects will range between $1000 and $3000. This is just a ballpark figure and some
sites can be higher or lower, depending on the needs and wants of the customer.

How do you charge for the project?
We get all your design requirements and present you a free Demo. The Demo we provide is obligation free.
If you are not satisfied with the Demo we will update upon your requirement up to 3 times for free of cost.
At that point you can either choose to leave at no cost or accept the project. Upon acceptance of the project,
generally we require a 50% deposit of the project cost. Rest of the 50% would be required upon completion of the project.

How long will it take to get a site developed?
The length of time to create your site depends on the complexity and size of the web design. Once you have approved the layout of the design it will take approximately one to two weeks before your site will be available for your clients.
Top
What will my web site be named?
Your web site will have a unique domain name. Most often we will try to get www.yourbusinessname.com however, another company may have already registered it. If this is the case we will discuss with you the available, related domain names. If you have already registered a domain name we can use that name for your site.

Can I start with a small site and add to it later?
Sure. Some of our projects have been planned out in phases. We will design your site to fill your current needs. Then, as your needs change your site can be changed to align with them.

How would my site get updated?
Every time a prospect returns to your web site they are that much closer to becoming a client. To keep them coming back to your site we recommend updating your content periodically. We can update your site for you for a fee based on how often you would like to update it and the complexity of the updates. We can also provide you a Content Management System (CMS) which will give you a back utility through which you can update your content on a run time basis. Check our CMS for details.

Whats skills do I need to use CMS?
Basic computer skills similar to those needed to send an email and browse the Internet.

Who owns my website once it is finished?
When you purchase our services, we create the web site for you! At the end of the transaction you are the owner of the site. You can move it wherever you would like, copy it, make changes to it - anything you would like. It is yours
