What’s the first thing you do when someone recommends a product or service?
GOOGLE IT! And your business is no different. Websites are the most visible single component of your business’s image. They make or break a lead or sale.
Store front shopping has taken a back seat to shopping from your laptop, ipad or cell phone. It’s very important then to make sure that your small business or startup has a great looking website that shows off how great what you offer is, not how bad your web team is.
One of the biggest red flags when someone looks up a company is an old 1999 style website, it makes you start asking questions about how legitimate this business really is. You do not want this to be you. Your website should be an asset and impress people, not turn people off and make them do business with your competitors.
Now that you know you need a great looking and strong website with content that facilities good customer conversion and Search engine optimization (SEO), how much does a small business website or startup website actually cost? How much should be budgeted to build a website without breaking the bank?
Websites are complicated and they are almost all different, which makes giving a one fits all price point to build one completely impossible.
We get asked all the time “How much does a website cost?” This is a bit like asking how much does a house or a car cost…. Do you want a base model Ford Fiesta – $15000 or a Bentley Mulsanne at near 400K, With a car at least both get you from A to B, which is not so with websites. If your website doesn’t convert traffic, it most certainly is not moving your leads down the funnel from the first to second step! But you can’t make business decisions on “it depends”!
To make website pricing more transparent and easier to understand, we decided to make a super quick pricing tool that asks a few basic questions to arrive at a rough estimated price. Our development team incorporated the many aspects that alter pricing and incorporated data from past projects into this calculator.
And don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to a question or exactly what you even want with a website, we’ll be happy to provide a free consultation and get a conversation going about what your goals are for the website, who will be looking at it and what action you want it to push people to take.
