This is not an easy question to answer as there are many factors to consider: What type of website do you need? Do you need a logo and branding? Do you have a company name? Do you have an existing business? What are you trying to sell? Do you sell goods or services? ..... the list goes on. We have split the types of websites we create into 3 categories:
Brochure Websites
These are simple websites for people or businesses that just need a web presence. You can think of it like an online business card that people can view to see what you do, and contact you
from £699
Business Websites
More detailed than a brochure website, and containing more information. Possibly displaying previous projects or showcasing your work and what you do, raising the profile of your business
from £849
E-commerce Websites
For when you want to display and sell your goods and services online, all E-commerce websites come with content management systems and everything necessary to start your own online store
from £999
This depends on the size of the project and what needs to be done. You will be given a time line once we have had the initial conversation(s) and gathered all of the information we require. In general though, we aim to complete websites within the following time lines:
Brochure Websites
Basic brochure websites can usually be completed within 2 to 4 weeks
Business Websites
A standard business website can usually be completed within 2 to 4 weeks
E-commerce Websites
Online stores take a little longer to complete but can generally be completed within 4 to 8 weeks
During our initial conversation(s) we will ask you for the information we require. The more information and detail you can supply the better. We like to get a feel for your company and what you hope to achieve from your website.
We will ask for any copy or images you have that you would like to use. This will help us during the design stage of the project, wher we will discuss how your content should be structured to ensure it delivers your goals. Final copy is needed before the Website development stage.
We want to use high resolution images of your products and/or services, so if you don’t have these then stock images can be used but you will have to purchase these separately.
If you have a logo or branding, or a current website, we may be able to use it as a blueprint, or even to fully incorporate what you have already into the design process.
If you have a current website it would be good to see it so we can get an idea of what you do, and also see what can be done better this time around
You will be encouragement to give input. opinions, and suggestions at every stage of the process, especially in the early stages. You can have as much or as little input as you want, but usually clients like to be a part of the process. We also like to know how happy the client is with how the website is progressing.
Yes, all of our websites will be built with a CMS (Content Management System) so you will be able to change and update most of the website content after completion(depending on the solution provided - this will be discussed during the requirements stage). Obviously, for E-commerce websites you will have full access so you can add and edit stock, control your payments, and every other aspect of your online store.
Yes, you will be provided with 2 one-hour sessions giving you instructions and a demonstrations on how to use the CMS (Content Management System) for updating and editing your website.
Yes, your website will work on all devices: Mobiles, Tablets, PCs, MACs etc.
Yes, your website will be set up with the latest SEO (Search Engine Optimization) techniques so that it will be searchable and visible on Google and other search engines. We also offer an ongoing SEO, marketing, and analytics service (for a fee) to optimise your website and convert vistors to customers
Yes, we can provide an ongoing maintenance service if required. This will incur an additional cost to be agreed beforehand.
No, it is your website and you should have control and above all, ownership of it. Many companies will host the website on their hosting platform and just give you access to it, this is handy but it means that technically they own the website! We can put you in touch with the right web hosts for your project and you will be in control.
There will be a yearly charge for web hosting and also domain registry (your website address).
Yes, depending on the site hosting that you use, you will be given a specified number of Email addresses that are included in the yearly price. We are happy to set up these Email addresses for you and supply you with instructions on how to configure these Email addresses on your mobile devices.
