How Much Does A Website Cost?
So, what’s the big deal about price posting?
If you have ever done any amount of researching on the net for web design pricing you find it’s nearly impossible to get an exact figure without discussing with the designer exactly what you need. This may become frustrating, but understand this is actually a good thing. This pricing method is used by most top-quality web design firms.Pricing a website correctly is like pricing a car. What kind of car do you want? A Chevy or a Bentley? Asking for an overall web design price without the details would be like asking a car salesman, “Well all cars have four wheels and they go. So, what do you have available and how much?” Doesn’t exactly make sense?
Your business is important and we’re here to help clarify what type of “car” you need!
What does the quoting process involve?
First, we need to know what you want and need. Usually, if you receive on-the-spot pricing, it’s not molded around custom design. Unfortunately, many web designers don’t want to take the time to look over each unique project and tailor an individual quote. Oftentimes, this results in the client ultimately paying more for items and features not in the designer’s original quote.
A lot of “quick quotes” are based on an hourly rate. In most cases, hourly rates are higher than an overall custom project quote. Features and styles make all the difference in the world in how much you pay for your website. There are literally thousands of options when it comes to designing your site. But not to worry, our online Questionnaire allows us to give you an accurate quote based on your specific needs.
We also understand budget constraints and are able to work within a certain budget while designing sites with expansion in mind.
What Makes WindNet Different?
The next big question on most of our customers’ minds is, “Why is the price range from designer to design firm so vast?” “What is the difference?”
There is usually a reason a web design firm is successful. Looking at their portfolio is one of the best ways to tell.
It’s not just the look of the website that matters. It is also all of the behind-the-scenes work that goes into making each client’s website a success. The marketing of a website can sometimes have more of an impact than anything. All of the related marketing work is something you can’t see when looking at a designer’s portfolio. We have had many clients pay some newbie web designer to build their website. However, it only ends up costing them more money in the long run to have it done correctly.
Without the proper search engine optimization, you may find yourself with an incredible website hardly anyone ever sees. Do some research on your website and find out where you rank on the search engines. You could be missing out on a lot of business because your website is not even showing up or because it’s buried 15 pages deep. Or you might even be on the first page, but no one is buying your product or service and you have no idea why.
Many businesses will allocate their entire marketing budget to advertising without first assuring an optimal online presence. Your website is your biggest marketing tool. It has to look fantastic and more importantly, be promoted correctly. This takes the experience of seasoned professionals.
That’s why WindNet, Inc. is here.
