Maintenance Costs
When planning a Web site or a site upgrade, your company should
consider the two phases of Web
development: design and maintenance.
Design Costs
We will estimate the cost and duration of your Web site development
based on the scope and complexity of your project.
Scope is based on the estimated number of pages you’ll
need. Complexity is based on the
features the site will incorporate (e.g. original graphics,
a shopping cart, or a searchable database). Obviously, a simple
brochure site will cost considerably less and take less time
to implement than a complex E-commerce site.
Designing a Web site can be a very expensive process, particularly
when database and E-commerce services are included
(sophisticated E-commerce sites can easily exceed $50,000).
The
following guidelines listed below will assist you to develop
your estimated budget*:
- $300 - $500 per page
- $50 - $150 per image/graphic
(budget more for logo design)
- Add $2,500 - $5,000+ for
E-commerce/database functionality, increasing significantly
with the number of products/SKUs
*These estimates will vary depending
on the level of content development (copy and graphics) and/or
customization required.
Maintenance Costs
The cost to maintain your Web site will depend on
two things:
Complexity: the level of skill
required to maintain your site. A brochure site may require
only simple HTML to make additions or updates to your site.
On the other hand, adding or changing a product listing for
an E-commerce site may involve database programming and CGI
scripting, as well as HTML code. We may charge higher fees for
more difficult or complicated services.
Update frequency: how often you
update existing or add new pages. If your company needs a brochure
site that will change only rarely (for instance, when you add
a new sales person or launch a new product), your maintenance
costs will be significantly lower than if you need an online
store that may offer 10 new products each week.
The complexity of the site will determine the hourly fees for
maintaining your site, and the frequency of updates will determine
how many hours we will spend updating your site. |
