Before we go any further, and find that I have wasted your time after trawling through the site, let’s get down to the real nitty gritty, the cost! This will, no doubt, be one of the major factors when deciding who you choose to build your website. A basic site, of similar size and content to this one would cost around £200.00 complete. You may not require a site as large as this, so therefore it may work out cheaper. The actual price of the basic package is based on £120.00 for the first five pages, and £15.00 for each additional page after that. When you take into account that on average, a professional web designer will charge anything from £35 - £50 an hour, you will realise that a fixed price system like mine can only save you money. Especially when progress is slowed down with a problem! Still interested? Then take a trip around the rest of the site to convince yourself.

Included in the basic package, apart from the actual designing and building of the site, are some extra features to enhance the look of the site.
- The designing of your unique title or graphic.
- Editing a reasonable amount of images.
- Creating any thumbnails required.
- Creating forms needed for customer communication and contact.*
- Uploading your site to your chosen hosting company (more information can be found on the Hosting page.
* These may depend on which company you choose to host your site.

It’s all up to you, now. If my price is acceptable to you, I would suggest you do the following, before commiting yourself.
- Have a thorough look round the rest of the site, and check out any examples given.
- Make a note of any special features you would like to include in your pages.
- If you need any further information please contact me, and ask for it.
- If you have any ideas of your own jot them down (colour schemes etc.).
You could even make a rough chart to work out the number of pages, titles, content etc. Or, you could fill in the order form and we’ll take it from there!

When you decide that you would like me to build your site for you, go to the order form and fill in all relevant details to enable me to get started. A deposit will be required at this stage, full details of this are shown on the form. In the meantime, you will need to find a suitable web host and domain name, if you dont already have these. There are some useful tips and links on the Hosting page. I should be able to show you the first stages of your site within a few days, and this is where we sort out any changes to be made to the style, fonts, and colour scheme, etc. After any changes have been agreed, it should be plain sailing. As soon as I get any required text and images from you I will complete the site and get it up to your own webspace. The whole design process should will take roughly 2 to three weeks, depending on the workload. This period may be shortened if all goes smothly. I suggest you now visit the Layout section and start getting a few ideas.
