How much does a custom website cost?
This is a difficult question to answer because each website is different and requires varying amounts of time to produce the desired end result. Creative graphic design, use of flash,
a large amount of photographs, banners, extensive editing, copying large amounts of text and feedback forms are labor intensive and will add to the final cost.
While “bells and whistles” may be attractive and effective, there may be less costly ways to achieve the same results.
The bottom line is that web design services don’t have to break the bank. A one page website with a simple format could start at $175. Depending on content, a multiple page site could average $150. per page. Each website is unique and the final price is based on a reasonable hourly rate.
Web design costs do not include web hosting, which is discussed below.
