Pricing
When it comes to pricing, we have 3 main aims:-
1. Affordability 2. Flexibility 3. Transparency
Having an internet presence doesn't need to cost a fortune and, we always strive to keep your final bill as low as possible.
The costs of a website project can vary enormously, depending on scope and complexity, but each project can be broken down into 3 cost categories:-
-

The table below provides guide prices for the Design & Build element, but be aware that these may vary slightly according to your requirements (for example, where you want us to provide additional services, such as photography, or copy-writing).

Maintenance & Support Costs
We have four options to cover work that needs doing on your site after it has gone live:-
1. Ad Hoc
Support on an ad hoc basis at our standard rate (£30/hour).
2. Pre-Pay 5
5 hours support, bought in advance, for £135 (= £27/hour).
3. Pre-Pay 10
10 hours support, bought in advance, for £260 (= £26/hour).
4. Pre-Pay 20
20 hours support, bought in advance, for £500 (= £25/hour).
All work is billed in periods of 15 minutes and we keep timesheet records, which means we are able to deliver a detailed breakdown with every invoice or statement.
Domain Name
The cost of buying a domain name does vary, so we will help and advise you with this.
If you already own a domain name we can transfer this to your new site. There is a domain transfer fee of £20 for this.
All domain names have to be registered with an approved registrar and the cost of this works out at approximately £25 for 2 years.
Software & Hosting
Hosting fees are payable directly to WiX and range from £7 to £19 per month with discounts available if you pay yearly, or two-yearly.
We will, of course, explain the options to you, help you choose the right plan and set it all up for you.
If you have an exisiting email address, you can normally continue to use that.
However, if you want a business address, such as "me@mydomain.co.uk", then we recommend using Google Apps for this.
The fees can be paid annually, in advance, or monthly.
Annual cost £37.00/yr
Monthly cost £ 3.70/mth
As well as the personalised email address, you also get access to Google Calendar, 25GB of Inbox space and 5GB of Google Drive storage.
