Exclamation

Need contact numbers for those who can create a good professional website for a music artist. Preferably those whose current workload is not too large. Must be able to provide simple initial costs breakdowns and be able to communicate with the artist who is not particulally computer literate.

Must also be a professional comapany, no frontpagers please

Please email contact telephone numbers to: djdunk(at)djdunk.com
Please state a rough price for a website with no e-commerce involved (needs to be scoped for future) and streaming audio features.

Thanks

I had a proffessionaly designed web site created a while ago for me.

My Web site
Approx cost would have been around £3250 + vat.

They have been trading now for well over 5 years.

Smartways

Ask for Mike Rickards, he's the MD. Mention my name and he'll double the price....
Just kidding, he may give you some discount though.

heh, bit like Los Angeles - where everyone you meet is an actor!

...everyone seems to be a web designer these days!

I know a bloke who knows **** all about html, php, photoshop, etc... He fires up a copy of frontpage, fills in a wizard with company name, address etc and bingo! sells the website for £500

£3250 - really.

I wonder how much an e-commerce one would cost?

I agree Rik, looks like Buck got ripped off.

That kinda site you can get for sub £1000 - welcome to the 21st Century BuckRogers.

Buck - sorry, in classic scoobynet tradition...

"I didn't read your thread properly" (tm)

People in the business, how much would a site like this cost to a business, including design?

And what are the going rates for supporting an e-commerce site like this?

It's just one I've done, and I don't know what's a decent price?

Pricing ANY creative work is really diffcult, there are so many different factors you could consider.

At the end of the day, its all relative to what a person is willing to pay!

A couple of things you could ask yourself:
Do you design web sites for a living?
Are you self employed or is this something you've done on the side?
If you are self employed, work out what you need to earn to survive. Divide that into hourly rate and times that by how long you've worked on this web site for.

Time is obiously one of the main factors when working out a price.

On going support, depends on how quick you are going to respond to any problems as they arise.

I'm no web design expert, but have been in IT a fairly long time now.

Couple of points on the web site:
If the background dots are from a template in Frontpage or something, I'd loose them! (Left and right of main page section).
The large font wording "Whats hot", sitting behind "Charts" does not show up very well. But that could be just my TFT screen.

These are just my thoughts, dont take offence as none is intended!

Like it Rik - nice clean layout. Lovely. Incidentally, your rollovers take an age to rollover.
