Paying The Right Price For A Web Site
CNN is carrying a good read informing those of you interested in a web site exactly what mind set you need to determine what the right cost for a web site ought to be.
“The number-one reason for wildly variable cost quotes, Schwab says, is that many small-business owners don’t have the time or knowledge to put together a “comprehensive requirements document”: something that spells out to the letter the kind of site you need built. Without a detailed requirements list, bidding companies may be coming back with services that aren’t necessary, or leaving out features you’ll need.
Getting a clearer sense of what you need the Web site to do will go a long way toward zeroing in on a true cost. Still, Schwab says, “you are going to be hard-pressed to find a reputable firm to do a website for less than $5,000 - and that’s even if it’s very straightforward.”
Folks, it isn’t that difficult to come up with a reasonably detailed list of requirements spelling out closely what your web site ought to have in/on it. If you first have an idea what the purpose of your site is, based on customer needs, follow that up with a basic list of requirements. Simple things. Things that fill customers’ needs.
Web sites get edited constantly. You can always add later and, imho, your designer should be more than willing and adaptive if you have the right designer.
