This is what every one wants to know – right?  The cost of a website varies depending on varying factors, just like the cost of a house or car will vary. I always ask prospective clients about budget up front as this will allow me to guide you in what you can expect for your investment.

A small, custom small business site may only be around $2800. In general, most of my websites start at $3400 and go up in price based on a few factors: complexity, scope and timeline. Projects that begin with in-depth discovery, strategy, and SEO plan, generally start in the $6,000 range. A larger corporate site that requires all of that and more can start at about $12,000.

We’ll discuss your project and create a custom quote based on your needs. Complexity also applies to strategy – a design may look “simple” may actually have a complex sales funnel and costs more than a site with no sales funnel.

Finally, the timeline affects the price. The price quoted is based in part on the amount of time I believe the project will take to complete. Delays due to failure on your part to provide content or feedback will result in a “holding fee” for each week the project extends past the timeline. If you have a tight deadline, a “rush fee” may be charged to complete the project in time.

The time it takes to produce a website depends on the size and complexity of your site and the quality of content that you have ready to go. As a guide, most sites take around 6-8 weeks from beginning to end. Please note that e-commerce and membership sites take longer to develop, please add 2-4 weeks to the timeline if we’re making an e-commerce or membership site together.

I love educating my clients! One of my specialties is helping my clients understand the process of developing a winning website that converts visitors to clients.

I’ve developed a step-by-step process to help my clients understand it all.

Yes, and this is something you really need to keep your site secure so your investment is always protected. You can learn about my Site Care plans here.

I offer premium web hosting services as part my Site Care Plans. But I do not do “just” web hosting as a stand-alone service.

Sure, but initially I want interested parties to fill out my worksheet so we can schedule a call and have it be productive for both of us.

I schedule my calls/video chats so I can be prepared for your call, have any files open I need and we can have a productive call.  Scheduled calls keep my work from being interrupted and allows me to focus on YOU and your project!

Absolutely! All the websites I design/develop are built “responsive” so they display correctly across desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones.  Depending on your market and the type of business your in, your site may need to be build  “mobile first” which is a bit different than responsive. But bottom line, yes your new site will work beautifully across all devices.

I do. I use WooCommerce for this because it’s the top ecommerce plugin for WordPress and is well supported.

Yes! Not only do I have a personal training session after a website is complete, all my Site Care clients have a library of short video tutorials installed in the administrative area of their website to walk you through any task on your site. I even create custom videos that you may need for specific plugins.

I sure can. As part of your project we can include Social Media Services which can include graphics, social media management such as blog posting and re-posting campaigns as well as ad campaigns. Whatever you need.

Search Engine Optimization is all about getting your website higher up in the search results on search engines such as Google. The higher up the results you are the more traffic (and customers) you’re likely to get.

For all projects I include my basic SEO Toolkit.  The site will be built Search Engine Friendly. But SEO is an ongoing process. I’m happy to give you information for ongoing SEO work.

Keep in mind that good SEO is about waaaay more than sprinkling a few keywords on a web page. While we can’t give away all of our trade secrets here, rest assured that we stay atop of industry trends (including Google’s always-changing search and rankings algorithm) to make sure our clients will rise to and stay on top of search engine results. Our strategy includes extensive keyword research, extensive technical SEO, analysis of your competitors’ websites, rewriting and updating content,and much, much more.

Yes. For many years I worked with multiple web development platforms. Quite frankly it was too much too keep up with. WordPress now powers about 30% of ALL websites on the planet. It just made sense for my business and my clients to focus solely on WordPress design and development.  I also only design on the Genesis Framework. It’s the most secure design framework for WordPress, and I believe the best for my clients.

I happy to include a “Content Package” in your proposal.  Writing is hard and writing for the web is harder.   Keep in mind, you are responsible for either delivering content or agreeing to a content package at the beginning of the project.

Sure! I’m happy to help you with a logo or an overall branding strategy.

No, at this time I only serve clients in all 50 states in the United States.
