Pricing

I bill most projects on a time and materials basis. Although it's difficult to get an estimate of what your project will cost before having its specific requirements, you can view the sample project below for the tasks I'll normally perform in order to launch a website for a small business, for example. Contact me to get a quote for your project.

Sample project: design and production of a fully custom, hand-coded, basic website for a small business.

Site maintenance After launch you'll want to keep your new site up to date and running smoothly.	*	*	*

*In many cases I offer an extended site maintenance program that covers requests for minor updates to your site (e.g., content changes that don't affect behavior or layout), resolution of unexpected issues, and other routine items for a prepaid, discounted rate. Without the purchase of site maintenance, additional requests for work are billed at the usual amount.
