How do you charge for your web services?
We charge separately for domain names, DNS services,
site hosting and development or design projects. Our prices for
web development packages are determined by the amount of hours we
spend on the project, we bill hourly @ $75 per hour, with a 50% retainer of estimate for
new clients, or full payment in advance for projects priced under
$1000.00 US.

How many revisions are allowed as we fine-tune the design?
We'll go as long as you request us to, we're on an
hourly retainer to work on your project. We submit
designs to you online, so you can quickly review,
comment, and make any requests. We've been doing
it for quite a while; people ask us to design
for them because they like our designs. You can get
a feel for the type of widely varying designs we
do by visiting our clients page:

What if I don't like the design even after we
keep trying to rework it?
That's not going to happen. However, having said that,
it's important to actually like the preexisting work
any design company offers; for instance, about 70%
of the time, we are left to create designs and logos
based on our own impressions and creativity, 100%
freedom, and that really defines much of what we
display on our site; we like clean,
legible pages that are easy to use, a fast download,
do not annoy, while maintaining a "crispness" and tasteful
use of imaging, whether it's a dental site, a computer
company or a rock band.
The other 30% of the time, we are asked to do specific
things because we are technically astute and can
basically do whatever is thrown at us. We'll do them,
because "The
Customer Is Always Right" and they know what they want. However,
this is why we request a 50% retainer to begin with;
they should see our work, and if they should like
that, or want something similar, they're going to
be extremely pleased.
The bottom line is, frankly, we don't want to design
anything we can't put in our portfolio and be proud of, point other
prospective clients to, and say "We built that, it looks amazing!".

How are payments handled?
Email us your contact and mailing information,
we mail you an invoice for our retainer (50% of our bid) and once
received, we go to work. Usually, just telling us the check is in
the mail is enough to get your project started.

How do we start on my project?
First, via discussion and email you provide site
information and navigation areas for your new website. We then design
a "mockup" prototype of what the website will look like
on the home page, and post it online for you to review and ultimately
approve. Once you approve the design, we'll build the rest of the
website documents and populate them with data and (in most cases)
images that you provide, or stock imagery from our collection, if
necessary!

$75 an hour, and will be accounted for on any work that is additionally
requested by the client. Typically, one page equals one billable hour,
less or more, depending on amount of content or programming involved
