(1) How much does it cost?
All websites are unique and are priced by how many hours are required to create the design. The "Basic One Page Website" and the "Business Five Page Website" are good general ideas of typical costs for most websites. The "High-end Web Design" is an intensive and lengthy project that includes specialized skills beyond design and programming.
We also offer economy web design for individuals who simply need a quick online presence without the advantages of the site being aimed for search engine recognition. Two examples of the economy design are Electronic Technician and Search Engine Optimization. The economy sites are priced at about half of the Basic One Page Website.
Basic One Page Website - $480.00
Your website is programmed for search engine optimization.
Up to nine custom photographs.
Domain name.
Email accounts (yourname@yourdomain.com).
Additional pages of the same theme: $90.00.
Deduct $20.00 if the customer chooses to use their own domain service.
($120.00 per year domain, hosting, and maintenance fee. The first year's fee is included in the $480.00 cost. Prices do not include sales tax.)
Business Five Page Website - $840.00
Your website is programmed for search engine optimization.
Up to nine custom photographs per page.

$240.00 per year domain, hosting, and maintenance fee.
The actual first words spoken by a customer when seeing one of our high-end web designs: "Classy, unique, overwhelming, emotional, emotionally overwhelming."
Please do not confuse the term "high-end" with being merely "high cost" or "high quantity of gadgets." Our definition of high-end implies superior quality of layout and artistry. Our high-end web designs are intended for use by the discriminating professional who demands an online presence that reflects the individual's own personal qualities. Samples of our high-end layouts are only shown to customers in person, and no high-end web design is displayed to the public until after the design has been finished for each individual customer. The layouts found within this website and most all of its links are quite good and work very well for search engines and their intended audiences, but the high-end designs shadow all else.
If you prefer a Bugatti rather than a Yugo, a Rembrandt rather than a Disney, a cello rather than television, or an Einstein rather than a Dickens, then you know why our high-end web design is preferred.
Additional services are billed at the hourly rate. There is no extra charge for our designing the website to be search engine optimized (some companies charge an additional $500.00 or more). The price that we quote on the contract is the full price that the customer pays; not a penny more.
(2) What are the advantages of a business having a website?
A website advertises your business twenty-four hours a day seven days a week. It is important for home shoppers to be able to find your business online after hours. Out of town shoppers rely heavily on websites to give information about store hours, product lines, and available services. If a customer is online and cannot find your business, the customer may choose to purchase from a competitor.
(3) How long will it take to build the website?
The average website is finished within one week, but it may take longer if your company's needs require numerous web pages or a higher than normal quantity of graphics. The estimated time of completion will be written in the seller's contract.
(4) Does the customer have to maintain the website?
No. The website maintenance can be handled by us on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis and be billed at an hourly rate. It is often more profitable for the customer to pay us for about an hour's work rather than for the customer to consume their own time that would be better invested in their own business.
(5) What about domain name, POP email accounts, and visitor statistics?
Depending on the type of website that the customer chooses, the web design service will include a domain name, from one to an unlimited number of email accounts, and logs of visitors and referring link statistics. If the customer prefers to not handle the chore of acquiring the statistics themselves, we can email the statistics to the customer on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. We can also set-up the customer's email to be automatically received through Microsoft® Outlook® or other email software.
(6) Can the customer add graphics, photographs, or videos later?
Yes. We can update the website at any time that the customer wishes. If the customer prefers, we can do all graphics, photography, and videography for the website as well as save the work onto CDs and DVDs. We use professional graphics software, cameras, and mini-DV camcorders. (Videos are useful for business meetings, store product demonstrations, theatrical works, and family-orientated topics.)
(7) What guarantees and warranties are included in the web design service?
We guarantee that the website will be properly programmed to perform the agreed purpose, to be free of bugs, to be aesthetically acceptable (subjective as that might be), and to be designed in a mature atmosphere. The normal wait for search engines to include a new website is about one to two weeks. The Internet hosting service that we contract with has a 99.9% guaranteed up-time.
(8) Why is search engine ranking important?
A typical individual searching for a product or business will first click on the top links of search engines. It is considered uncommon for a person using a search engine to continue searching past the second page (the top 20 of that search engine). If a company's website is not in the top 20, few potential customers will ever know that the website exists. Higher placement on a search engine will result in a company's website being viewed by potential customers before they view the competitor's website. It is very important for many companies to maintain no worse than a top 10 listing. Some of the web pages that we design are listed in the top 10 within a few weeks, and some pages become number 1 within a few months. If a company needs a top listing on a major search engine quickly, we have methods to make it happen (the costs for additional search engine optimization are dependent on several factors including keywords, existing competition, and speed of attaining rank). It is important for the customer to know that we actually use a keyboard and type all web page coding ourselves. Unless a customer
specifically requests otherwise, we do not use templates nor do we use 'automated' web page creation software. Each website is individually created by a professional programmer. Search engine optimization is included as standard practice while the customer's website is being coded (we do not purposefully build a low quality website and then charge the customer to fix the problems). A website built from a template or automated software will likely not earn a high search engine ranking. It is far more profitable for the customer to purchase a correctly designed website than to lose business and have to pay for optimization later.
(9) How can a company receive a quote on having a website designed?
Email us from the contact page or use the online contact form. Please include the information of how many pages that you want, how many photographs are to be placed on each page, what type of graphics might be needed, and as much additional information as possible. If you like the appearances of a website and would like to have your site share a similar layout, then please include in your email the URL address so that we can visit the site and better know what you are wanting. We will use the information to begin figuring the cost for your website design. We do not work with estimates; we quote a specific price and we do not vary from the contracted price.
(10) What websites are examples of the work?
Please visit the Website Designing home page for a list of our clients' sites as well as a list of our own sites. Examples of search engine optimization include The Logics website. The Logics earned the top 10 and top 20 spots on search engines within two months without any additional search engine work beyond the normal programming. Several of the pages are now in the top five on search engines for their keywords. Earning the top 10 can be achieved much quicker when additional techniques are applied. The Olfactory Perception page had previously been ignored by search engines for over two years, but with a few modifications it is now ranked #5 on Google® and #3 on Yahoo® and Bing®. The Ethics site is a new experiment in SEO against very strong competition. Two of the pages have now earned the top-ten spot on search engines, and as time allows we will work towards raising the ranks on other pages as well. All of our clients' websites are ranked #1 for their primary keywords (except one customer who requested to not be too easily found). We know that our search engine techniques work, simply because the pages that we modify are now ranked well.
(11) How does the website self-adjust to different sized monitors?
Visit one of our full width pages like at Firsts and use your mouse to "restore down" your browser (click on the double-square symbol at the top-right corner of the browser). While the browser is partial-sized, use the mouse to drag one side of the browser towards the center of the screen. Watch the website text and top graphic automatically adjust to the browser size as the browser narrows. Your customers will see your website in its correct layout regardless if their monitor resolution is 800x600, 1024x768, or higher. Use the "restore down" method to compare other website designs. Many companies still use older monitors or keep their monitor resolutions set at 800x600 for business purposes. Too, some computer geeks who enjoy rebuilding computers use old monitors to be used online. Students in developing countries are being given computers with small screen sizes, and it is especially important for websites aimed at global audiences to be compatible with older computers. At present we are reconfiguring this website to fit 1024x768 resolutions and higher so that most everyone will see a similar display regardless of their monitor size, while still allowing individuals with 800x600 resolutions to view the main body when their browser is aligned. There are many reasons why we build websites the way that we do, and we are happy to explain them to our customers.
(12) Why do some of your websites have few graphics?
Websites are designed to meet the purposes of each customer. Websites that promote products will have numerous graphics, while websites that provide reading material will purposefully use few graphics. Too, graphics cause web pages to load slower, and many visitors will quickly leave a website that loads slowly. The web page that you are currently viewing is capable of loading within about nine seconds with a normal 56k modem, and under two seconds with DSL. The home page has more graphics and loads about half as fast. Few graphics means fast loading, a cleaner appearance, and visitors stay longer. Specific website designs attract or repel specific types of users, and a website design should be aimed at attracting the types of customers that a business wants. Search engine rankings indicate a website's popularity among visitors, and our high search engine rankings are evidence that most visitors prefer the way that we design websites. If most Internet users like our customers' websites as well as our own, then the users will like your website too.
(13) Can you update an existing website?
Yes. We can improve the current website's design as well as use the statistics to learn how to adapt the design to better suit your visitor's needs.
(14) What types of websites do you design?
We create websites for businesses, organizations, societies, clubs, and for personal sites. We only design websites that are suitable for viewing by all ages. Samples of designs can be viewed on the home page.
(15) What other services do you provide?
When we say "turn-key," we literally mean turn-key. We can build a computer for you, set-up the computer, install additional hardware if needed, install telephone/networking wiring if needed, install all software, design and create your website, set-up the hosting service, manage your website, and instruct the customer's employees on how to use the computer and software. Our service is "turn-key."
