FAQ

How much does my site cost

Usually the first question but here goes, All sites are different, your cost will depend on the complexity of your site for example, how many pages is it?, will we have to provide images, will it involve saleable items?, so many questions and not a hard answer the bottom line is depending on the complexity will define the site cost. Sites can be as small as just one page hence they will cost less. To keep the cost of a site down its best if the owner comes in with a clear picture of what they want, ie images , how many pages, whats in the menu system etc.
Why we charge partially for our artistic abilities if the owner has a clearer picture of what they want it takes us less time to develop, hence charge.

How do I pay for my site?
  • The simple answer here is we require 50% down to establish the site, eg get​ the domain name , install and set up the site on the server etc. Once the site is completed and signed off by the owner then prior to going online we will require the remaining 50% paid.
After the site is paid for are there any yearly charges?
  • There are only 2 items you will be responsible for yearly, the first being the maintenance of YOUR domain name. Typicall this charge is around $14. But remember it will be your obligation to pay it. Please note here if you already have your domain name captured for instance at GoDaddy then you will be responsible with them to keep the name updated.
    Then once yearly your responsible to pay $275, this is too keep your site updated, virus free and a host of other administrative processes to many to mention here. If no other updates or additions to your site have been completed this is all your responsible for.
What do your sites include in the purchase price?
First your site will include a "Responsive" design this is a web design that will populate and work on ALL devices. It will have particular mode of appearance depending is the user is viewing on a smart phone, tablet, computer or anything in between. Your site will contain an interactive Google Map(if desired), you will have online contact forms with slider processing.
Most importantly your site will be HTTPS, in other words your site will be secure and backed behind a secure firewall. HTTPS is important to achieve a good Google ranking.
Your site will also be SEO optimized. That is the site will be optimized to rank the best it can possible rank in Google searches(the closest to the top).
