This is ideal if you have a small budget and really just require a 'web presence'. This style of website is based on taking a day and a half to complete and will not   include any 'special' features (like a dedicated contact page or demanding styling). It also includes a 2 year domain name lease (a .co.uk name) and basic website hosting for 1 year.

If you have you own hosting and/or domain name already registered, then we can take this into account when charging, depending on time taken to 'link' the website to your existing supplier.

_{Any additional amendments, once a website is complete, will be charge at a £25.00 hourly rate - if preferable, we can arrange a regular monthly fee to include a specific number of updates, which may prove more economical!
However, please do note that we always go that extra step to try and build a website, so that it doesn't require our future intervention, and can be maintained by you.}

This is our most popular model, and is what one would generally accept as being a 'normal' website.

This style of website will involve several pages (very much like this one), which could include dedicated 'contact-us' areas (rather than just email links), picture slideshows, Twitter feeds, embedded movies, live RSS feeds, Google Earth/Map interactions and other modern features. It also includes dedicated Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to ensure decent ranking in search engines such as Google etc.

Also included is a 2 year domain name lease (a .co.uk name) and basic website hosting for 1 year. If you require another domain style (for example a .com etc) or more advanced web hosting, then this can always be arranged.

For interest, the main reason why a website will reach the 'higher' end of the cost scale would be purely down to time taken to achieve a desired result. If an advanced and more demanding 'styling' is required, then this is more likely to increase the cost, rather than the additional 'technical' features.

This type of website could involve the creation of a 'basket' style purchasing system with all necessary security implementations and database management. This is really where a website crosses over to a dedicated application, offering all manner of extra functionality.

There are several options when moving into this sphere of website development, ranging from a complete 'ground-up' build to utilizing existing e-commerce 'platforms'.

In addition to our own development we also work very closely with an extremely experienced 'Joomla' development company - Joomla being a very good and widely used CMS (Content Management System) website development platform.
