FAQs

Pricing Structure

It is simple and straightforward at $15 an hour.


For site redesigns, we consider the basic set up and redesign and provide you a project estimate as what to expect as a lump-sum based on how many hours we think the project would take x $15 hr.

For most small business / non-profit / personal sites, it takes an average of between 30 and 100 hours to complete. ($450 - $1500)

What makes the difference on the design time?

Functionality.
Do you want a shopping cart? or Newletter functions? Appointment Booking? Some components take time to configure and set up. Plain and simple.

Basic hosting set up, design, and input will take at minimum 30 hours for even the simplest of sites. Addition of extra functionality components will add onto the time as required, depening on which ones wanted. Contact us and we can discuss your project's needs in more detail.

Will I be able to access my website to make small changes on my own?

Absolutely!  We use the Joomla content managment system and it has a very user-friendly editor interface for the long-term maintenance phase of your site. There is a very short learning cycle for the basic updating skills you will need along the way. If you need more indepth assistance, we are just an email, txt or phone call away!

We are developing a great help section that has "screenshot samples" on some basic how-to information that we have made for other people along the way that will be available for you to refer to as you need.

Web Assistance

We can do website repair for older sites that just need some refreshing and link clean-up work for a small reasonable and/or hourly rate.

We love to make older
"business card" styled websites into a more functional "web tool" that can include up-to date
