Our hourly fee is $30. The amount of time that it takes to complete your website depends on the type of website that you want to build.
The most common website function is to display information. This can be in the form of text, graphics, or animation. Graphics and animation are usually used as a means of enhancing the presentation of the text and are more complicated and time consuming than displaying text. Therefore, the more graphics and animation you desire, the more expensive your website is going to be, but it really pays off when you consider customer satisfaction and repeat visitors to your site. Prices vary for these types of websites depending on how many pages need to be created, how much graphics and animation are requested and if the owner desires any advanced programming features.
Website owners generally aren't interested in a lot of graphics or animation unless they are concerned about customer satisfaction and repeat visitors. This generally applies to websites that sell products or services. This is one reason why these types of websites are more expensive. Sure, you can buy a website with nothing but text and sell stuff on it, but it wouldn't be very effective because your visitors wouldn't stick around very long and they wouldn't return to your site. The other reason why these types of websites are more expensive is because they require more advanced programming, such as shopping carts, databases, etc.
Increased convenience is another common function of a website. This could be in the form of 24/7 availability, greater accessibility, less maintenance, or automation. Usually a website inherits at least 2 of these - 24/7 availability and greater accessibility. Less maintenance comes in the form of digitalizing information by converting paperwork to work done on the computer. This makes work easier and quicker. Even better, some things can be programmed to be automatically completed without any human intervention at all. Less maintenance and automation require the most skilled and time consuming programming so they are the most expensive features to accommodate into a website, but they bring great returns over the long run.
