How much does a website cost?

Filed under: General,Tips — sforbes @ 2:07 pm

The first question a walk-in client here at the T324 office usually asks is, “How much does a website cost?”

We wish we had a quick one-size-fits-all answer to that question.how much does a website cost?

Does the walk-in client want a single page personal website or a seventy-five page e-commerce site that gets fifty thousand visits a day?

Does he or she want a generic design from a commercial template or a custom design that involves logos, branding and video production?

Does the client want all the latest social media interactivity, email signup and a blog or just a landing page with a phone number?

It’s a fair question, one I get asked time and time again. The infuriating response, “Well… it depends.”
