Cost of Website Design Fees Explained
Inexpensive and Affordable Website Designs
We don't have surprises and you will not be billed for any extras. All costs are spelled out from the start - with no surprises later!
For most people, the basic custom website design package will be more than adequate for a typical business website. This will give you the best of both worlds - affordability and a great foundation with search engine optimization techniques built right into your custom website design, from the start, so that you have a solid foundation and the highest chance for success.
However, we do realize that cost may be a factor in deciding which package you'll end up with so we (also) have pre-built and 'out of the box' websites that are very inexpensive. These pre-built websites will not have the search engine optimization techniques implemented into it (since they are pre-built) but they will have a customized design and you will be able to enter your own products and information into your website, as you prefer. Please keep in mind that customization for the pre-built websites is somewhat limited - but still a very good option for those on a tight budget.
The cost of all fees for custom website designs and pre-built websites are explained in the chart below.
We urge you to check out all of the competition to see what other website designers are charging so that you can make an informed decision. We are confident that the cost of website design fees are all considerably lower, at about $2,000.00 for complete websites, than everyone else's prices.
In fact, just comparing our total packages to most others, you will find that others may charge a minimum around $2,695.00 or higher for the same items as our BASIC total package (that does NOT include search engine optimization techniques) ... and, you probably won't get everything that is included with our packages, either.
Our packages are very affordable and extremely inexpensive when you consider everything that you will receive with your web design package.
Also, please keep in mind, we do have more packages available. These two packages are our most popular packages so we have chosen to list these:
