Business websites

What does it cost to use a web designer?

Design costs

• This will include the creation of the overall look and feel of the website image, with background and navigational buttons. Additional parameters may cost extra to develop depending on what you require.
• Costs can be per hour, per page or an overall project cost depending on the preferences of the client

Marketing and hosting costs

• Web hosting services may include a set up and monthly fee.
• Registering with the most widely used search engines so that your product or brand name is brought to the fore. Resubmitting of your website to the search engines that you are not ranking well in, and submission of your website to link lists every month to increase popularity, are likely to be based on a monthly fee.

Maintenance costs

• A monthly fee may be charged for the updating and maintaining of the website.
