Pricing

Web Design / Development

  • Hourly (Informational / Blog Designs): $40
  • Hourly (E-Commerce / Shops): $50
  • Average Estimate: $200 - $700

Like our website? We can build a site for you too. We generally work in WordPress when building informational sites (like ours) and blogs, though we are open to using other software if requested.

We are capable of both ground up theme/layout and plugin development, (we coded every little bit of our site). We can also work with existing plugins, and customize existing site themes/layouts in order to help reduce development time to fit your budget.

Our sites are always built responsive and mobile friendly so that your visitors can view them effectively from pretty much any device. And we will never blatantly advertise ourselves on your site, though we appreciate referrals and we may show your site to other clients with your consent.

If you currently do not possess a place to host your website, we can assist you with purchasing your web hosting service from a reputable provider. We do not re-sell hosting as we feel it is better for you to have complete control over your server with no middle man in-between.

For informational sites that are expecting low to moderate amounts of traffic, we typically recommend a lower cost shared hosting plan. These hosting plans tend to range in price between $4 to $15 dollars a month.

For E-Commerce / Shopping sites which are expected to experience heavy traffic, or in general, any site expecting heavy traffic; we recommend you purchase a VPS or Dedicated Hosting as opposed to Shared Hosting. We will help you determine what type of hosting is correct for your site if you are unsure.

Web Maintenance

  • Monthly: $85
  • Monthly With Marketing: discounted to $75

* Discounted when using us for online marketing.

With our web maintenance service, we will look after your server and keep the software powering your site up to date and configured securely. We will perform periodic backups of your site or set up automated backups if possible, and restore or repair your site on demand if it is ever hacked, exploited, or broken due to software upgrades.

If your site (or another site that once used your current domain) happens to have been exploited in the past, your domain is likely listed on several if not dozens of anti-malware blacklists. Being on these blacklists may prevent users with certain anti-virus software from visiting your website. We have experience with meticulously contacting these blacklist providers to have your domain re-evaluated after your site is cleaned of malicious content.

We will also make sure that your certificates, domain, and hosting successfully renew without billing issues at the end of their billing cycle.

We do not limit site maintenance to those who we have built sites for, we will maintain and help make changes to sites that have already been built for you.

We are also not limited to maintaining PHP-based CMS sites, we are experienced with numerous programming languages and platforms. We are familiar with both *Nix and Windows based hosting environments and are most experienced in Mono/.NET C# and Python. We may quote higher rates for maintaining/building more complex sites which are not built on WordPress, PrestaShop, Joomla or Drupal etc..
