Business Website Packages
You’ve decided that you need a website or a website re-design, and now it is time to put together a budget. Here is some background and also some guidelines to get you started.
Many small businesses start with a web builder like Squarespace, Wix or Weebly. In the last few years hosting companies like GoDaddy have been developing and promoting their own builders as well. These solutions fit well for the business that has little or no budget for website design, and for cases where the business owners have time to create the site themselves.
Now, it’s time to go to the next level. In our opinion, WordPress IS the next level because it opens up a powerhouse of tools and options for you. The software itself is free (Open Source) and is continually being upgraded and added to, with new levels of security being added on a regular basis. With a self-hosted WordPress site, you have total control of all the files and content. Unlike one of the web builders mentioned above, you can back up your site, move your site to another host, and add to your website at will. On top of that, WordPress is going to be here for a while: it is currently powering more than 30% of the web.
We have put these WordPress packages together so that you can get an idea of the cost of hiring a company like ours to develop your site FOR you. You can either try to do it yourself, or you can hire a freelancer or web studio to do the heavy lifting for you—while you take care of what you do best.
We realize that your business may not fit into one of these packages or “boxes”. We would love to talk to you and provide you with a customized quote. Talk to us today.
