PRICE INFORMATION

Standard:
Most web sites have at least 3 Main pages: Home (index) plus 2 - 3 pages containing information essential to client needs such as an About or Product page. Pages may include text, graphics, links, video, or animation. Images may be supplied by the client or can be made to order. Standard cost start at $100 per page and goes up from there. However, the home page may be more, depending on the format. Standard images may include company logo, rollover image displaying a product or product line, navigation system (links) and backgrounds.
Page Sizes:
Main Pages: Most pages are Main or (full) pages that contain sufficient text and graphics and incorporate the full design and layout (html or css).
Mini or Sub Pages: These pages are Extensions of Main pages and are less in size and scope. They usually display less text or contain only an image or audio clip. A "browser window" (pop-up) may also be under this heading, (to enlarge an image). Mini pages or sub pages do not need the full feel of design/layout, though they should maintain some consistency, such as color and fonts. These pages cost less than standard pages and range from $25 to $50 per page.

Extras:
Opening/ Intro Page: A page of animation which opens to the Home page is considered extra. Price may vary depending on the complexity. Pages containing frame sets, (2 to 3 frames) forms, radio buttons, drop down menus, sound, slide shows, video clip, heavy graphics, web photo albums, more than two rollovers, or added animation are considered extra and will add to the cost of the overall site. Interactive images working with sound and animation are considered extra.

Graphics may include homemade navbars, buttons, backgrounds, or images with animation. Clients may supply their own graphics, including a logo or artwork as long as they are in the correct format; i.e., such as jpgs or gifs, anything that can be scanned or downloaded. A wide variety of clip art is available.

All Sites Include:
Domain Name (URL) if one does not exist. Page titles, descriptions, keywords will be included in the code for Search Engine capabilities. And optimization on the home page (text) is also a plus for the best search engine results. For more info on services see Hosting & Domain Names below.

Payment:
A third of the payment is expected when work begins, (once an overall plan and structure has been worked out and agreed upon). The second third is due when the project is about halfway completed and the client views and accepts the progress. The balance is due on completion. A contract is also necessary when an agreed upon plan is underway.
Hosting Services & Domain Names:
If the client does not have an existing URL, one will be supplied with the cost of a standard page. Clients are responsible for their own monthly or yearly fees regarding hosing space and domain names. These are separate costs, though we will handle the set up, if preferred.

Maintenance:
Updating pages whether it be weekly, monthly, quarterly, or otherwise, is based mainly on content such as text and graphics. The fee for standard updates is set at about $25 per page, but may be less depending client needs. Updating is needed when information changes in order to keep a site current. Extras (such as animation) are set accordingly, depending on client needs.
Editing and proofing pages of text is necessary and is considered part of the standard cost, however, heavy editing or actual writing of content is considered additional work and will be based on the number of pages and work involved. Prices start at $10.00 per page for extra editing and writing.
