Experience tells us that companies often charge two or three times our rates, and larger companies up to ten times! We believe our rates to be fair and reasonable, and prices start from as little as £500. We provide free quotes with no-obligation to pursue the build of the site if the quote isn't to your liking.
It's hard to give exact details of how much a website will cost to build until we can determine exactly your requirements and needs. This will vary from customer to customer. Building a Web Site is similar to building a house. You wouldn't expect a builder to be able to give you a price until you'd given him the plans. Similarly, we can't give you a price for designing your Web Site until we have discussed your requirements.
Pricing Policy
At Websztes, we believe in all-inclusive prices with no surprises. When we quote for a project, you will be given an estimate within a range. The lower and higher points of the range are normally within 10%-15% of each other. An estimate is designed to give you a rough idea of what the project will cost.
On your decision to proceed, we will give you a proposal which will show you how the project will be done, when it will be done, and will provide a cost that you can use for financial planning purposes.
If the project goes to plan with few hold-ups, the price you pay will be towards the lower end of the range. However, if there are delays outside our control, a higher final price will naturally be charged. Either way, you will know before the work starts what your maximum cost will be, providing the agreed specification isn't changed. Experience to date has shown that clients prefer this arrangement as they then can influence the final price paid.
We do not charge clients on a 'per-page' or 'per-hour' basis, as many designers do. as you may end up paying more than you should.
When we design a site, you are essentially paying for our time. This is mainly made up of time spent programming, producing customised graphics, on-line form development, database design, e-commerce set-up and setting-up the site. You will be charged with any direct additional expenses incurred over that agreed but you will be informed before we go ahead.
How to get the Most for Your Money
With a little forward planning, you can help reduce the work involved and influence the final project cost.
- Plan your site carefully. This will save time and money by avoiding simple oversights or delays
- Write, edit and supply your site's final content in advance
- Work closely with us as if we work well together, time will be saved and you will save money!
- Assign a Contact Person that will promptly address issues related to the development of your new site
