Web Design
by
Dave
Unlike most other Web designers, I allow freedom of choice. I am honest and upfront about my pricing structure. Nothing you don't want or need is forced upon you. You'll have a clear understanding of the cost before the project begins and no surprises when you receive the final invoice. And...once you pay for it, you receive 100% ownership.

What defines a Web
page?
Top
A Web SITE consists of many different Web PAGES. Every Web site has a home page (often called the index page). The rest of the site is made up of inner pages. Some examples of common inner pages are:
- an About me page
- a Contact me page
- a Testimonials page
- an Articles page
- a Products page
- a Portfolio page
- a Privacy Policy page
- a Terms of Use or Disclaimer page
- a FAQ's page
- an Order page
- Resources
My per page rate is the same regardless of the length of the page, however, pages cannot be combined. For example, you cannot combine the about me page and contact me page into one Web page. If you do so, it will still be charged as two separate pages.
Why I charge by the page for
Professional web design and layout
Top
Creating customized layout and graphics is a process that involves a high amount of artistic ability and creativity. The amount of time that it takes to design a new project can vary greatly depending on the knowledge the designer has about your industry, available resources, and even the creative mood of the designer.
Most Web Designers charge anywhere from $75 - $125/an hour for Web design services. While creating the first page takes about 5-8 hours, if I were to charge by hour, just the first page could cost up to $600. I charge by the page because:
- it takes the guess work out of the final cost of the
project - there are no surprises when you receive the final invoice.
- you pay a predefined amount
regardless of the time the designer spends on the project.

Make a deposit |
|
You'll be provided with an invoice for 50%
of the total of your quote. This deposit can be made by cash or check payable

|
Provide me with feedback |
|
I will provide you with a rough draft for viewing within one week of the date of our signed agreement. Your feedback will help me to determine which direction to take. I may only need to do some tweaking to the draft, or I may completely start over. Either way, I offer you UNLIMITED revisions until you are 100% satisfied with the final product. |
|
Test and launch |
|
Once you have approved the final design, I add and format the copy (text) to all the pages and set up your desired features, such as contact forms and search engine. Once everything has been approved by you, I upload your site to the Web and fully test its functionality. I make sure that your site can be viewed as intended in Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, and Opera versions 4.0 and above. The Web design process generally takes anywhere from 2 - 6 weeks. To alleviate any unnecessary delays, I recommend that you have the majority of your copy written before your design begins. The length of time depends on how much text/data the customer provides me at the onset of each project. The more information provided, the quicker the process takes until completion. |
