Title: Website design Post by: david3103 on November 17, 2009, 01:44:01 PM How much should I be paying for a web design.
Nothing too fancy - a description of what we do (employment agency) - a link for sending us a cv - a page of links to useful websites - a link for sending timesheets - an updateable by me page for current job opportunities I've been quoted c£500 Title: Re: Website design Post by: kinboshi on November 17, 2009, 01:53:17 PM Speak to Bongo - but that's probably not far off.
You've not mentioned the cost of site promotion in that. Have you set aside a budget for it, got it all covered, or have you not considered how you're going to get people to the site? Title: Re: Website design Post by: Longines on November 17, 2009, 01:53:52 PM Sounds about standard.
Or DIY. Joomla + this (http://"http://www.focusdev.co.uk/shop?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=3&category_id=1") for forty quid. Simples.

Outline what you need and people say what they have done before and how much they will charge you. Its a great way to get stuff done by experts and at a good price.

I see kin has got his sales pitch in too ;) He makes a good point though, as most sites won't attract visitors without some form of marketing plan.

I don't want clients who don't want the work doing (if you know what I mean). Convincing someone they need my services means trouble further down the line. |
