How Pricing Works
Website packages are fixed price
The figure quoted is what you pay, provided the project stays within the scope listed. Every package includes responsive design, SEO optimisation and ongoing support. Copy and images are supplied by you – if you'd like those written or produced, that's quoted separately and I'll tell you the cost before starting.
Revisions are included, within reason
Two rounds of revisions come as standard on the Starter package, and more on the larger ones. Changing your mind is part of the process and I'd always rather you said so than lived with something you didn't like. What gets quoted separately is genuinely new work – extra pages, extra features, a change of direction after sign-off.
Custom software is scoped individually
Bespoke applications, databases, integrations and automation can't sensibly be priced from a list, because no two are alike. The figure shown is a realistic starting point rather than a headline. I'll scope your project properly, tell you what it involves and quote a fixed price before any work begins.
What affects the price
Within the website packages, the things that move the figure are: the number of pages, how complex the design is, whether you need a logo or custom graphics, whether content needs writing, e-commerce functionality, custom integrations, advanced SEO and email hosting. If any of those apply I'll tell you the cost before starting, not afterwards.
How long it takes
The Starter package typically runs four to six weeks from initial consultation to launch. Larger sites, e-commerce and custom web applications take longer, and I'll give you a realistic timescale with the quote. Some custom work that sits alongside an existing website can be done in a couple of weeks – it depends entirely on the project.
Nothing starts without a written quote
You'll always have the scope, the price and the timescale in writing before I start. No hourly creep, no invoices that arrive larger than expected.
