Services we can offer
With our experienced, and diverse staff, we can offer a wide variety of services to help you get started with your website, and once it is up and running, help you maintain it, or teach you how to make simple changes yourself.
Service Offering |
Description |
Price |
Website layout and initial content |
After our first interview, when we have an idea of what you hope to gain from your website, and understand something about your personality and/or business goals, we will come up with 2 or 3 samples for you to evaluate. |
Included in the final price. The initial samples are for evaluation, to further establish your needs and preferences. If you don’t like them, or decide to not go forward, there will be no charge. |
Website creation |
Includes selection/definition of a theme, fonts, colors, layout, and initial page layouts. |
Price may vary depending on the number, and complexity of pages, and frankly how easy the client is to work with. Nominally, plan for around $25-$35 per page or major section. Complex layouts, or items that require significant rework after they have been initially agreed will cost more. Extras are typically billed at an hourly rate, to be agreed. |
Photos, custom graphics, custom video, backgrounds incidental artwork |
These (and more) can all be provided, as requested, or required. If you have videos or photos you would like to include, but they need editing, we have the ability to edit most formats. If you need custom video or photos taken – say at a speaking engagement, or to promote your product or services – we can come to you to do that as well. |
Simple, stock graphics or photos, that require no editing or minimal editing (e.g. cropping and resizing) can usually be included for no additional charge. Items that require custom work or a large amount of editing can be included at an hourly rate. Custom photos and video can be produced or edited at an agreed rate. |
Custom Logo |
A logo is a special type of artwork. A good logo can increase awareness, help your clients identify you, and build trust. It helps you stand out from a crowd. Logos can be used on your website, presentations, business cards, stationary, and email signatures. They can be very simple (think of something like the Target Corporation logo, three nested circles, alternating red and white), or very sophisticated and complex. We can design a logo for you, or work with your printer / graphic designer to develop a logo that will work well on your new website. |
Prices vary from around $75 for a simple design to $200 or more, depending on the creativity and complexity required. If you want an animated logo, that would normally be more expensive. |
Responsive layout |
This is the ability to display your website on a variety of devices, including mobile phones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. |
All of our websites use Responsive layout by default. We will test each page, and each internal and external link, with several devices, including IOS and Android phones and tablets, and laptop and desktop computers. This is included in the price of the service. |
Education and mentoring |
To help you learn to maintain your website and make simple changes yourself, we can offer training and mentoring after the website is up and running. |
We can provide access to online video tutorials that demonstrate basic functions, like editing your website, modifying text, adding a new section or page, updating SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and settings, and starting and updating a blog. This is included in the price of the service. Custom mentoring or tutorials can be provided via phone, Skype, or in person. This can be done at an hourly rate. |
Future updates and maintenance |
We want you to be happy with your website and realize that as business needs change you may also need to make changes to your website. We can help if you find you require additional services after the project has been completed, such as introducing a new theme, adding completely new pages or sections, or major changes to formatting, copy, or media. |
These additional services can be provided at a predetermined rate. |
Selection of website hosting |
We don’t actually provide web hosting ourselves, but we can make recommendations about services that are available, and pros and cons of some of the more popular ones. |
This service is offered for no charge. We don’t get anything from any of the hosting services, but we want to make sure you go into your new endeavor with your eyes open, and understanding what you will need to do, and as much as possible, what it will cost. |
