Website Design Pricing & Info.
Domain/Hosting
Plans:
The first thing you'll need is a domain name
(www.yourwebsite.com). You'll also need to
find a company to host your website, or
place it on the internet. I STRONGLY
recommend
Host
Gator.
I just signed up for it recently, but am extremely happy with the service. I
used Netfirms before and they had a lot of server issues. Host Gator charges
$6.95 a month for a year's worth of hosting under the Hatchling account if you
buy it for a year in advance (sometimes they have discounts when you first sign
up, so check that out). To
purchase a domain name is $15 for the year. You'll
have to set that up with them yourself, but
it's an extremely fast and easy process.
I will take care of the rest! (If you
sign up online, you can actually earn me
referral money towards my website through
Host Gator. See the
Frequently Asked Questions
page to see the exact steps in signing up
online.)
Website
Package:
Each page I design on your site will be $10. I will design your pages with
graphics, layouts, and content exactly as
you describe them. If you're not satisfied,
I will fix it until you are, free of charge!
Updates:
I will update your pages (announcements,
dates, small changes, pictures) for $10 a
month. This is unlimited updates. If you
don't need any updates, you don't have to
pay!
Graphics
You are responsible for choosing your
own graphics. Here is a
list of my favorite graphic artists. I suggest you look through these before
contacting me, so that you have an idea of what you want. I can make
suggestions, but everything I would look at is on this list. Just a tip..."Linkware"
means free, and "Purchaseware" means that you have to pay for it. I know that
everyone wants things for free, and as a teacher, I don't blame you, but don't
neglect the Purchaseware graphics. I actually recommend Purchaseware over
Linkware sometimes because #1, they are better quality, and #2, they will be
different from other websites out there. But be ready to tell me specifically
which graphics you want on the specific pages that you want me to design for
you.
