How Much Does It Cost?

You might be surprised to learn how inexpensive a custom-designed web site can be. Whenever possible, we find Open Source solutions for powering your site project. This means you save on licensing fees. You save on creating code from scratch. You can save on design and setup costs by customizing stock template systems that are usually available.

Depending on the content, complexity and features, the total cost can be comparable to print production at one end of the spectrum to animation production at the other.

For the cost of a series of print advertisements, you can have a full-color, living picture of your business with a global circulation. It is an advertisement that can be easily updated as your product line and marketing strategy evolves.

Most of the sites we produce range in price from about $500 for a starter site to $3000 for a site with extensive design & functions.

Rates for setting up a WordPress site vary according to your needs and specifications, but here are some basic guidelines that might help.

A basic install and setup of WordPress onto your already existing domain is usually around $125.

Creating your custom page layouts for WordPress start at $150. For instance, we charge around $150 to add an existing logo; there may be additional costs depending on the amount of graphics to be added, and the number of templates needed for the site.

We'll provide estimates for adding page and image content, usually by looking at your requirements and how much material you'd like entered. We can also price adding open source and paid plugins to cover any custom functions, such as for a members-only website.

If you require hosting, we offer a managed service for $120 a year for a plan that fits most non-ecommerce or heavy traffic/query situations. We use the same data center for our hosting that many major companies use (http://gnax.net/). The advantage of managed hosting is that we act on your behalf when there are technical issues, or for setting up email accounts or account settings.

If you'd like us to update your posts or pages, or if there are minor items that need to be changed, we can do this at our hourly rate.

Please don't hesitate to contact us at 413-528-3195 or use the form below if you prefer. Usually the best way to start is for you to send us the addresses of other sites, noting what parts or functions of the sites you think are really cool, and also tell us what your service or business is.
