How do we determine labor hours? What does an average website cost? Let's answer these questions with a question. What is an "average" website? Doesn't average mean mediocre? Most companies or business owners would not think of themselves as mediocre or be satisfied with an "average" website. Most would think of themselves as unique or aspiring for greatness.
When clients or customers visit your website, you want something that will say that you're more than mediocre. And since websites are often the first impression makers these days, you want to make the best one. Your website will be an investment that, unlike flyers or business cards, will never run out.
Determining an estimate is often based on a variety of factors. Most obviously, the amount of labor and complexity involved. Typical factors that help us determine a website's cost are:
How
many total pages does your website entail?
How
many input forms would you like to have?
Do
you want any dynamic functions or scripts integrated?
How
many images do you want the site to contain?
How
much support and training will you require?
Would
you like any animation or sound?
Would
you like search engine optimization and submission?
There are many other factors to be considered, but the above questions illustrate some of the things we use to determine the costs. Imagine building a website like building a house. The number of bedrooms and baths, attached garage, a Jacuzzi, hardwood floors or vinyl or whether you have central air or not can and will affect the final price tag of your home. The very same methodology applies to determining the cost for websites.
Just as in any service business, those who are good at what they do, do not compete on price. They don't have to because referrals keep their project schedule filled with new customers who see the value in what their skills and experience can bring to their program. In a day where almost everyone is a "Web designer", the onus is on the customer to determine who in fact has the professionalism, skills, experience and expertise to help them reach their goals. To gravitate to an individual or company solely based on them being the least expensive is not a wise business decision. Since your website is a long-term investment that will be seen by the world, why not get the most professional service available?
That said, when you choose the right partner, for all the right reasons, you should have no problem recouping your investment by experiencing a strong ROI (Return on Investment). When looking for a developer, you should also be seeking a long term partnership. Not a company you can hire today and who can go out of business tomorrow.
