How long will it take for my web site to be designed?

The timescale for our website design projects are often dictated by the client. If you have a deadline, we will can usually meet it for you (depends on what your site consists of). The most common delay,is waiting for content (text/images) to be sent to us by the client.
 
What up-front fees are charged? Are there hidden costs associated with your web design services?

The one-time website design & setup fee (base price) is the only up-front charge. Once you approve of your website design, it is released to the public. From that point, there is no obligation to stay with us. You pay your hosting fee on a month to month basis, and can cancel at any time without a penalty.

No hidden charges. If you have special requirements other than the basic packages offered, we will quote the price of those services in addition to your base price, and those prices are strictly adhered to.
