What do you want to spend on your website? Do you have fixed budget constraints or is your budget more open-ended? What do you get for your money? These questions, among others are the ones we need to answer before we start.
As every clients' web design needs are different so are their corresponding proposal as well. We feel it is counterintuitive then to charge a package or flat-rate pricing. So we will perform an estimated cost/hourly projection of project based on information supplied by client and work with this in mind on an hourly rate. So you never get overcharged and only pay for hours worked on your UNIQUE project.
Here's a survey to help you see the process of estimating costs when creating a website. It might surprise you to find that the website you want might be more (or less) costly to create than you first expected.
