Website Design, Hosting and Maintenance
Let’s get down to brass tacks, shall we? How much does a website cost? Typically, a custom-designed website will cost anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000. And don’t fall for the “$150 for a custom site” ads, because generally it is only for a single page, not an entire website. CWI offers one of the best deals around and our pricing structure is simple with no hidden administrative fees.
Custom Website Design
Design Fee = $500 (limit two reviews; non-refundable)
Web pages = $150 per page
Website hosting for 1 year … $60
Setup Google Analytics on your site … $35
Website domain registration … $15 – $50 per domain name (price depends on length of domain purchase and/or additional transfer fees)
Website maintenance (Tier I) … $45/hour
Website maintenance (Tier II) … $90/month* (6 month contract)
Website maintenance (Tier III) … $70/month* (12 month contract)
* = limit of three hours per month
It is important to note that we focus on clean, simple, search engine-friendly website design. However, if you are looking for a more dynamic website with searchable databases or flash animation, we can accommodate that as well, but it will come with additional costs depending on the complexity of the project.
Unlike most Web design firms, we will teach you how to update your website on your own. If you hire us to design your website, we will include one hour of instruction on how your can update your site on your own. However, if you would prefer to have us maintain your site for you, we will be happy to do so.
