Professional Rates for Web Design and Website Redesign

As the owner of Lori's Web Design, and being a professional web designer, I offer a wide selection of affordable web design rates because every site owner has different requirements and rates will vary between websites.

Low overhead costs are maintained on Lori's Web Design because I write all code by hand, which results in no need to buy or upgrade expensive web design software. I am currently designing sites with 100% CSS layouts unless data tables are needed. I aim for cross browser compatibility on both the Mac and PC. I do all the work myself so you get personalized attention.

I watch the weekly traffic stats for all clients as long as you keep me as your web designer to make sure there aren't problems with the site. I also keep a record of when domains come due and let clients know when the due date is approaching so they don't lose their domain.

The final price is based on the amount of effort required. If there is a lot of image formatting, or contact forms, setting up a shopping cart, or designing custom graphics, or research to write the content then the price is higher (I have a BA in English/Creative Writing and also an artist).

If your website is having ranking problems you may need a web site evaluation before progressing with a redesign. Please see the Contact page or call me at 509-443-8693 if you are interested
in purchasing any of the services listed below.

Recommended Host:

Web Design Rates for a 5 page site:

The data for a 10 page site also applies to a 5 page site^* except it only covers 5 pages.

* I do not recommend less than 10 pages because search engine prefer sites with lots of pages and sites that grow frequently. If you want to start out slow and add pages later then you may prefer this option.

$500.00
(with 1/2 down and the other 1/2 due upon completion)

Rate for a 3 page website:

The data for a 10 page site also applies to a 3 page site^* except it only covers 3 pages.

* I do not recommend sites this small because search engines prefer sites with lots of pages that constantly grow. If you want to start out slow and add pages later then this may make a good starter site.

$350.00
(with 1/2 down and the other 1/2 due upon completion)

Website Redesign

The price for a Website Redesign is similar to designing a site from scratch, unless the site needs to be moved to a new host and more pages added, etc. If your website is having ranking problems in the search engines then a web site evaluation may be needed first to determine original design flaws and total costs.

Consultation Fee

If you would like advice so you can fix the site yourself I provide a consultation service either by phone or email. Please call after 12 noon Pacific Time.

$30.00 Per Hour

Evaluation of Small Website:

This website evaluation service provides an in-depth evaluation of an already established small website, looking for hosting or technical design flaws that are hindering your ranking in major search engines and supplying you with tips on how to make your site more appealing to search engines and the general viewing public. This website evaluation will be sent by email, prints out in 4-10 pages, depending on the problems, and takes at least 3 to hours to complete, so it's not free. See the website evaluation page for more info.

$75.00

Evaluation of a Large E-commerce Site:

This website evaluation provides an in-depth analysis of your e-commerce site. The price depends on how many pages your site has and also how it is designed so a set fee is not offered. See the website evaluation page for more info.

From $150 - $250.00

Copywriting:

Since Google has started devaluing the links for sites that get involved in dishonest linking schemes and one-way links are hard to come by, the best option is for you to provide content that people link to willingly. Also the more pages you add to your site the more links you gain as every page pointing back to your home page counts as another link.

Having a BA in English/Creative Writing I can research your company's focus and write that content for you. Research and writing the content can take up to 3 hours per page.

$30.00 per hour
