Online portfolio, e-business, e-representative

In our opinion, the cost of our web design starter kit is very fair. We’ve kept the hours needed to design and build a website to a minimum, which suits most people’s needs.

There is room for a few changes, but if you want to try more options, like a different colour here or another font there, or perhaps change the layout again, then these changes will be charged for separately on an hourly basis. A fair method for everyone!

We’d also like you to consider the functionality that you’re getting with your website – a content management system (CMS) with full interactivity for your visitors.

We build sites using Wordpress, which is an open-source software program built by volunteers for free. That’s right … free! If you paid someone to build a CMS for you, it would cost anywhere from $ 10,000 to perhaps $ 100,000, depending in your requirements.

WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time

Wordpress is constantly evolving and changing with the times, and because the developers aren’t being paid for their work, they don’t have the time to ensure that it works 100% all the time.

It’s very likely that you’ll encounter a couple of glitches and snags along the way. For the most part, fortunately, it works beautifully and is easy to use.

It’s important that you know we’re not providing you with an absolutely flawless system.

If you are looking for perfection, then please rather contact a web developer and be prepared to pay $$$$$’s. There is an excerpt below and a table showing what different types of websites could cost to build.

Boiling down the cost of building a web site is like boiling down the cost of commissioning a portrait: prices vary widely, depending on who’s doing the painting and who’s doing the paying. Still, here’s our best effort to sum things up:
