Website Design Price Guide.

Setting up a website for your new business or community project need not cost as much as you might expect.  My web design is specifically aimed at those who have little or no ongoing budget so I am very selective about what I'll accept as a project.  It can be as simple or as complicated as you wish and throughout you will deal with me personally from start to finish so I will always be intimately familiar with your particular project.   

All my charges are "expenses-only" and include domain name registration, web hosting and email for one year plus additional features such as databases or any special software required for the particular application.

Standard Websites

A custom design with no additional programming requirements. Cost largely depends upon what features are required.  Domain names vary in price and are either annual or biennial renewals.  Hosting typically costs £30 per year per website and this includes a MySQL database.  The final cost will depend on complexity but can usually be estimated. 

Ecommerce Websites

Ecommerce websites, or online shops, cost slightly more due to the complexity of the programming.  They require a database to store the products and the facility to process payments online through gateway services like Worldpay or Paypal so please ask for a quote.  If your requirement involves a project outside the scope of my resources I will refer you to an associate who specialises in complex e-commerce web design, especially for an intensive internet sales enterprise.  I do not take on projects that I cannot honestly support at any price but I usually know a man (or woman) who can...

Additional Functionality

You may require a website that you can update yourself, or perhaps include a forum or guestbook for example - this is what we term as 'additional functionality'. Cost depends upon the number of pages and the functionality you require.  Typically a "Content Management System" website where you can logon to manage the website online from a browser can be set up using an "Open Source" system such as Joomla or Mambo which are free.  These or other like them often come as part of a hosting package and are well supported with templates and plugins to add functionality.  However if you want a unique bespoke template, you might have to invest a little in a more versatile system that will work within your chosen design.  Prices for these vary from about £40 to several hundreds and offer more control over layout and content.

Database driven websites or Dynamic sites


If you need to store a lot of information and provide search facilities to your users, a database driven site may be required.  A property agency where it would be necessary to add/edit/delete properties at will from a database is a good example.  It must enable front end users to search the database for a property by area, location and price.  I have bespoke database driven designs that include training for you to manage the content yourself.  However, due to the nature of this type of website you should contact me for an estimate to meet your specific requirements.
