Pricing
Here are the most common prices I am asked for. Billing is managed through QuickBooks software, and everything is clearly itemised on invoices so you know what you are being billed for.
Web designs
Priced on a per-page basis,
plus a set-up fee. A "page"
is roughly an A4 equivalent. Price includes as much text and graphics
as can be fitted on the page, although large amounts of image
or text scanning, coding (e.g. Javascript), and animations, are charged
extra at the hourly rate. As a rough guide, an average 3 page
static site would be £235+VAT, 5 pages £325+VAT, and
10 pages £550+VAT. Content-managed/dynamic or e-commerce sites
tend to start at around £500+VAT (additional software costs are
incurred). Connecting
Somerset funded sites can be 50% cheaper.
Web space
Starting from 20MB of web space managed
on your behalf by myself, for £85+VAT per annum. Plenty
of space for basic sites and some clients run two or three static sites
within this quota at no extra charge. For larger sites, 50MB or 100MB
chunks are available from £170+VAT
per annum.
Domain name registration, hosting and administration
A
two-yearly fee of £60+VAT covers everything to do with
your domain name, from finding a suitable one (if required), registering
it through the appropriate authority, hosting it and setting up
the email routing (including basic spam filtering), and troubleshooting
any domain-related problems as we go along, to acting as your domain administrator
for ICANN or Nominet matters.
Adwords campaigns and search engine optimisation
£75+VAT setup fee, and then
a management fee which works out to about 150% of your monthly Google
Adwords budget, which
includes your Google fee payment, the invoice for which must be settled
in the following month for the campaign to continue. Click

Web site statistics and live chat
Simple stats for referrals, popular pages, keywords used to find you, etc., based
on the rolling last 500 hits to your site are just £25+VAT to set up as a one-off
fee. Real-time statistics with live
chat and call-back facilities
are available from £10+VAT per month plus a £75+VAT set-up fee.
Maintenance and site visits
General maintenance is currently £35+VAT per hour, but if you require
me to come out and help you with something such as your Contribute, Actinic or
Whoson installation on-site,
these are billed at £55+VAT per hour
including half of travel time. But 5 minute site updates, and email
and telephone support for clients (unless separately agreed as supporting
a specific piece of work) are free and there is no premium
rate number to call. For details of other prices, please get in touch.
