Answer:

The timescale of your website depends primarily upon your needs. If you have a deadline in mind we will endeavour to meet it for you. The most common delay in the creation of a site is waiting for content (text/images) to be sent to us by the client.

Answer:

The first step is to get in touch and tell us the kind of website you are looking for. We will then carry out a introductory consulation (face-to-face or on the phone) to establish clear objectives before providing you with a detailed quote.

Should you accept the quote you will be required to pay a 35% deposit. We will then ask you to forward any content and images so we may start to build your website.

If you already have a domain we can begin the transfer process. If not you will need to decide on a suitable domain name so we can purchase it on your behalf.

Once complete you will be provided with a private web address (url) to view the initial build of your website according to the agreed specifications. The site may then undergo a period of refinement in consultation with yourself until a satisfactory solution has been reached.

At your request we will then point your domain to your site, effectively allowing people to find it on the world wide web.

Answer:

The cost of a website varies, depending upon the type of site you require. A basic site will cost approx £200-£300, a content managed system £2000-£4000 and an ECommerce site £4000+.

Each site has to be treated on it's individual requirements and you will be provided with a full quote following any initial consultation. For more details visit our web pricing page.

We request a 35% deposit prior to beginning work on your site with the balance of payment due on completion.

Payment can be made by cheque, bank transfer or by using Payal.

The only ongoing costs will be your annual domain name renewal and hosting fee.

Answer:

Yes we generally ask for a 35% deposit from all clients.

Answer:

No, we do everything for you, but if you already have a domain name we can easily get it transferred to us so that your domain, hosting and site is all in one place.

Answer:

We can submit your site to Google for a very small fee, but please bear in mind that achieving high listings within search engines such as Google requires a considerably greater investment of both time and money. You will need to consider Search Engine Optimisation & Marketing.

Answer:

In the majority of cases a face-to-face meeting isn't necessary and 90% of our sites are generally completed with contact via email and telephone only.

Answer:

After the completion of your website we are available for any after sales service you may require.

Any slight tweaks or amendments are carried out to the site free of charge in the first week. Any support thereafter will be charged at an hourly rate of £36 for basic changes or updates to content, images, layout or style.

All other services including any development, search engine optimisation, web marketing or strategy consultation will be charged at an hourly rate of £49.
