Web Design Prices. Website Price. Web Mastering Costs & Rates. |
|
People always want to get to the bottom line very quickly. They want to know how much their website is going to cost. That means there should be no surprises and we won't be wasting each other's time. Good website design and Search Engine Promotion takes a lot of time and experience and whilst our charges must be realistic, we do try to keep our website design prices as low as possible.
Our marketplace is amongst Small and Medium Enterprises, and self employed individuals. We recognise that large budgets for web design are seldom available here so our web design rates are priced accordingly.
We also offer website advice, consultancy and a personal service throughout. We have outlined some typical examples below to give you an idea of our website prices and rates.
*NOTE: The website prices listed below are for straightforward websites written in HTML without any complex interactivity being required. Interactivity would be the automatic processing of user inputs (apart from standard online forms) and the uploading of content like images and other information that needs to be automatically processed. It is very difficult to say what websites like this will cost without knowing the specifics but many of them will come under category 7 below.

Package 1
Single Page Business Card Type Website
Most businesses now recognise that they need a web address. But some businesses are not ready for a full website or they have no real content to place there. In this situation we can create a single page website, with some information about what you do and your full contact details, including an email link. Single Page website price from £200.
Pacage Price from: £200
*NOTE: The cost of a website is not proportionate to the number of pages required. A single page website still requires layout and graphic design. Developing the standard "look" and the graphics for a single page can take as long as it does for 100 pages!...

Website Updates and Modification Rates
Lots of people don't want the hassle of website content management and if you are one of these we can make changes to your site upon request. We are not in the business of holding people to ransom for this and our minimum charge is £20.
This will cover most text and minor image changes that you require. If the changes are very minor we may not even charge you for this or just add them to your next bill. If you need more extensive changes we will quote you a very reasonable price for these. Our portfolio is full of satisfied clients. Feel free to contact any of them for a testimonial.

Factors that Affect Website Design Prices and Rates
There are a few other factors that will affect the price of your website.
Copy typing
Having to transcribe large tracts of text from paper documents takes time. You should always try to provide your copy in electronic format. The actual format is not particularly important as long as it is saved in a file. Even basic emailed text is fine. The formatting would have to be changed for the web anyway.
Changing your mind
If we develop your website or part of your website as agreed with you and you subsequently change your mind about what you need, the work done will still have to be paid for. This makes it important that you carefully specify your website before work commences. Be sure to plan your website and know what you want. We can help you with this on request.
Graphic design work
Graphic design is probably the single most time consuming part of developing a website. If your site requires lots of original graphic design work expect to have to pay a little extra for this.
However, it is difficult to generalise on website prices. Each person's requirement is different and costs can vary tremendously. The websites listed above are good examples of Toucher's typical web design costs.
