How
much does it cost to have a website designed?
Obtaining a website for your company or business does not cost as
much as you may expect. We are able to offer effective
web site designs at really competitive prices with the
aim of providing you with a quality eyecatching website for an affordable
price.
There are basically three main costs involved when designing a site.
1. Domain Name Registration
- The first step is to purchase a domain name for your site, otherwise
know as 'your web address' or 'your url'. You can check domain name
availability here.
We are able to purchase your domain name and hosting for you.
Prices start at £10 p.a for a .co.uk
name.
2. Website Hosting - As
well as purchasing a domain name, web hosting will also need to be
purchased, this is effectively space on a providers server where your
web pages are stored. Again you can relax and put your feet
up as we purchase this on your behalf. Prices
start at £12 p.a for a .co.uk domain name.
3. Website Design - Obviously
all designs are unique, and different clients require different functionality,
so we have listed some approximate costing's below to give an idea
of what you will get for your money. All prices include the domain
name and hosting.

A straightforward design with no additional requirements such as dynamic
news pages, password protected pages etc..Cost largely depends upon
how many pages the client requires, but typically a ten to fifteen
page site of this nature, including domain name and hosting will cost,
approx £450 - £500.
You may require a website that you can update yourself, or you may
wish to have a bulletinboard or guestbook etc. on your site - this
is what is described as 'additional functionality'. Again cost depends
upon the number of pages you require and the functionality you require,
but a typical price range, including domain and hosting would be,
approx £450 - £700.

If you are intending to update your website on a regular basis, or
need to store a lot of information and provide search facilities to
your users a database driven site may be required. A good example
would be a property agency who would be able to add/edit/delete properties
at will from a database that would also enable front end users to
search the database for a property by area, location, price.
No two enquires are ever the same, but basically the more complex
the site the higher the cost of designing the site. We have designed
database driven sites for as little as £650...however
due to the nature of this type of site please
contact us for a quote..

Ecommerce websites, or online shops cost slightly more due to the
complexity of the programming and the fact that they generally require
a database to store the products. Another consideration is how you
intend to process payments..do you have a pdq machine or will you
require an online payment processor like Worldpay
or Paypal.
An approximate cost would be £1000 - £1500.
If you are considering setting up a website that has products for
sale on it, please email us your requirements, in as much details
as possible so we can then send you a quote in due course.
In summation if you require a website
please contact us with your requirements, we will then provide you
with a quote and if that is satisfactory we then take care of all
of the above and in a few weeks time you will have a new website!
Site Optimisation - Requirements vary, but prices
start at £150 for a basic effective web site optimisation review/update.
