Asking the price of design and build of a website is like asking how long is a piece of string. The price for designing and building an effective and functional website depends on: -

  • What you want the website to do for you 
  • How complicated you want the website to be  
  • What kind of design and feel you want 
  • The skills levels of individuals involved in the design and development 
  • Whether you want it to have highly interactive components or not 
  • Whether you want components like video etc 
  • Whether you need to give access to employees or customers
      

and a number of other factors depending on what you want. Whatever you want, we can build if for you!

Brochure and Information websites

eCommerce (Internet shopping) websites

Let's look at a site for businesses who are mainly or wholly service based and do not sell products over the internet like mail order companies do.
 
First - What do you get with a package
 

  • First years hosting and domain name registration for one .co.uk or .org.uk domain. 
  • Design of a web template and build of the main site pages 
  • Pop 3 mail box 
  • Starter package of Link Building to your website (essential for getting your website known on the Internet) 
  • Starter package of Search Engine Optimisation to your main pages (Max of 10) to make sure that the search engines can find an catalogue / list your site properly. 
  • A data base for use with your website (an essential tool) 
  • Training on how to update and manage your website 

As long as you don't want something complicated the price is usually anything from £2,500.00 upwards depending on what you want doing with your pages and how you want them to work, but we discuss this with you fully to make sure you get what you want and not what we think you might need.
 
Your only other cost is the annual renewal of £199.00 for hosting and use of the superb content management system, which all our clients rate very highly.

As you can imagine setting up an Internet shopping catalogue can be a bit daunting and needs some skills so as you would expect this is reflected in the pricing structure.
 
A standard eCommerce website and Internet shopping facility with secure integrated payment connection to PayPal would include the following;

  • First years hosting and any available .co.uk or .org.uk domain (or we can transfer in an existing domain name if you have one.) 
  • The design and build of your website  
  • The design and build of your shopping catalogue 
  • Setting up Database Mailing lists for marketing your website and products/services 
  • 5 Pop3 Mailboxes 
  • Starter package of Search Engine Optimisation to your 10 main pages 
  • Starter Package of link building to your website (an essential part of getting your name known on the internet) 
  • Setting up a Database for use with your website 

Proving you don't want something complicated then prices start at around £3,800.
 
We will discuss with you what you want and give our advice on how best to go about making your website effective.
 
The price we give you will be determined by the work necessary to achieve your needs and we will discuss this with you fully to make sure you get the kind of website you want and need.
 
Your only ongoing cost is an annual hosting and content management license fee for using the system which all our clients say is excellent and easy to use once you have had a little training.

Why do we include Databases in websites?

Data Bases help to make websites DYNAMIC!

Many people see their website as simply being an extension of their brochures; static, flat, perhaps a bit tatty around the edges and if the brochure has been around for a while it may be a bit "stale".
 
Then consider how a database driven element to your website could: -

  • Save you money 
  • Help you win new customers 
  • Build loyalty the loyalty of your existing customers 
  • Help you reach into new markets 
  • Help you expand your business 

The word "Database" itself sounds technical does it not? Well maybe it does, but with our help you can soon master the use of databases to do may things with your website and change it from something that just sits there waiting for people to visit, to a useful tool the helps you grow and become more profitable.
