CURRENT RATES & PRICING

The cost to develop your website can vary depending on its feature requirements, the complexity involved in the layout, and how many pages are to be designed.  We create custom websites from scratch which are more expensive, as well as semi-custom websites created from templates which are less expensive.

BILLING

If ongoing development is required, we bill monthly.  Typically, a $100 deposit or a percentage of the total cost is due to begin project.  50% of the project cost is due 1/2 way to completion, while the remaining payment is due before site is uploaded to your web host so that it is viewable on the Internet.  We can make different payment arrangements as well.

For our online website builder / content management system, we bill automatically according to which plan you chose at time of signup, either monthly, semi-annually, or annually.
