Pricing for Professional Custom Web Design and Development About Web Development Pricing - The Value of Outsourcing Web Design Industrial Salaries for various professional Web Development positions vary up to $125,000/year. Most small and mid-sized businesses just can't afford or justify that expense, nor can they neglect the need for a valuable, professional and competitive Internet Presence. That is our market niche. We believe our commitment to the small business owner, the entrepreneur and the innovative spirit is unparalleled in the industry.

The complexity involved in creating a valuable Internet presence these days just can't be managed by amateurs. Web Development Pricing Below you will find an approximate pricing chart that will help you estimate your Web Development Costs. Your web design project may differ depending on your needs, however, the chart below might help you determine a base price for an informational webisite. Other requirements may increase cost such as developing e-Commerce Sites with shopping carts, database driven sites and extensive custom graphics generation or manipulation. You can help keep costs down by providing textural content for each page. The non-provision of content for each page can add 30-50% to a Site's development cost. The prices below include review and editing for Search Engine Optimization.
*The "home page" is more expensive because it includes the custom Site layout and design, navigation scheme etc., that will be used throughout the Site. Due to Search Engine requirements for content depth and uniqueness, we do not recommend less than 7-10 pages to start, however we will develop "Starter" Sites with fewer pages. Pricing estimates for development of 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 50 and 100 page informational type Web Sites:

We realize that our clients prefer knowing up front what their costs are going to be and when they will become due, therefore we have built our Web development pricing model on a predictable base. Normally, we do not charge by the hour. We do however tie down project requirements and include what is expected in the initial contract, protecting both parties. If changes are made to the design requirements that were contracted and design has commenced, additional charges may apply, but they will be agreed upon by both parties before work is done. We design on-line in a directory in our own Site or password protect and robot exclude a client site, allowing our clients "Real Time Review and Approval", eliminating undesirable design surprises. We can also take any existing digital media such as company logos and digitally match your company colors for your Website color scheme. We offer a number of services that are too numerous to quote here. Our "Maintenance" programs include linking requests in high ranking directories across the Internet. We do offer "set" monthly pricing for our Website Maintenance Programs depending on client requirements. Make sure and visit our " Website Maintenance" Page. We also offer online Press Releases, article writing and submission for syndication, and a several marketing packages. We have even been providing W3C code validation services for other Web Development companies. Professionals Provide More Value Putting things in perspective: Your mechanic charges around $75/hr or more to work on your company vehicles. What would you expect to pay for your most valuable marketing or sales tool? Many business owners do not realize that the complexity of today's Internet and other digital media excludes the engagement of inexperienced service providers. You will find that contracting a professional organization will cost you about the same or a little more in the short term because they have more experience, are better staffed and work faster. However, you are much more likely to realize a more valuable Web Presence and reduced overall project expense while receiving faster delivery and a more manageable Site over time, resulting in a better ROI (Return On Investment). If you are serious about a professional Web Presence, you need to contract a professional firm! Over time, as you progress through; Concept - Preparation - Design - Marketing, and Maintenance, your Website costs decrease as value increases, making it even more difficult to justify permanent full time employees.
