     the business style website


A clean, clear style of website.
From £199 for a single page.

Typically a page will contain between 100 and 150 words and 2 or 3 pictures, and each page will fit onto a single screen making it very easy for the end-user to navigate and understand the page content. This style lends itself to using bullet points

Often used by tradesmen who need a website to provide potential customers with a feeling of credibility, this style can be used to portray a portfolio of previous work together ith a brief background about yourself.

Using this type of format an average website will contain anything from 2 - 3 pages, up to 8 - 9 pages, and will cost between £299 up to £999.

 

These are average costs, and we will provide a quotation for you before we commit you to any costs. Depending on how much work is involved, the cost may be more or less than the indicated page costs.

 

     the informative style website


The informative style website is used where you need to convey information.
From £299 for a single page.

Typically each webpage will contain between 200 and 400 words and 5 or 6 pictures. This is a useful style to adopt when bullet point information is too concise, and you want to convey a fair amount of information about your business or product across to the end-user.

Using this type of format an average website can contain anything from 1 or 2 pages, up to 4 or 5 pages, and will cost between £299 up to £999.

These are average costs, and we will provide a quotation for you before we commit you to any costs. Depending on how much work is involved, the cost may be more or less than the indicated page costs.

 

     the descriptive style website


The descriptive website is used where content is more important than easy navigation. It is ideal for providing a lot of information about a single subject in just one page.
From £399 for a single page.

Typically each webpage will contain between 500 and 700 words and could contain 15 pictures, or more. This is a useful style to adopt when you know the end user will be interested in reading through to the end of the page.

     the professional style website


This is our most popular website style, and is used where presentation of the content is important. It is ideal for providing a lot of information split into small sections. We produce a bespoke website for you, designed to meet your requirements.
Prices start at just £299.

Our Professional Style websites are based on a navigation bar, and each page can then be subdivided into more webpages. Click here to look at an example.

The benefit of this style of website is that it can be used as an inexpensive way of incorporating a lot of information onto the website - once the basic website and navigation bar are completed, then the extra pages can easily be incorporated, for minimal cost.

With a minimum of a home page, information section, and contact us page, this style starts with the 3 button navigation bar website.
Every website will have its own online contact form, so that visitors can send you an email directly from the webpage.
Larger versions are available and our example website has a 7 button navigation bar, with 25 pages, containing 3000 words.

Typically each webpage will contain between 150 and 200 words and your pictures. This is a useful style to adopt when you already have a brochure which needs to be transferred to the internet, or if you know the end user will be interested in picking the appropriate topics, but where you do not need them to read absolutely everything on your website.

Using this type of format your website could contain up to 5000 words, can span across 5 - 35 pages (or more) and will cost between £299 up to £999.

Typical examples:

3 button Navigation Bar
5 pages / 10 pages
£299 / £499

5 button Navigation Bar
10 pages / 25 pages
£499 / £799

7 button Navigation Bar
15 pages / 35 pages
£699 / £999

These are average costs, and we will provide a quotation for you before we commit you to any costs. Depending on how much work is involved, the cost may be more or less than the indicated page costs.

     the basic website

Some of our clients have asked us to quote for a basic website, so the following provide solutions where cost is the most important consideration.

     the basic bespoke website

A single bespoke webpage (designed using your company colours, and styles) showing your company name, logo, address, telephone number, etc.
Plus 50 to 100 words of content, a picture, an online contact form, and your own domain name with email accounts.
We need you to provide all details including content, logos, and pictures.
Cost £150

     the basic pdf website

This is again a single bespoke webpage (designed using your company colours, and styles) showing your company name, logo, address, telephone number, company description, and your own domain name with email accounts.

There is no space allocated for content, but instead there will be a link/button which will open a small pdf brochure (typically 2 - 3 pages) - see webspace rental, below, for an example.
The pdf file will be opened using Acrobat Reader on your customers computer. You will need to supply a copy of the document - either by post for a hard copy original; in MS Word; scanned as a digital image; or as a suitable file which we can convert to a pdf file.

We need you to provide all details including logos, and pictures, and you need to provide us with a brochure which we will convert to the pdf file.
Cost £99

     webspace rental

Click here for more information about Webspace RentalThis option is very similar to the pdf website except the design of the webpage will be a standard format, you will need to provide your own email account, and the URL (domain name) of your webspace is provided by our sister company www.onlinebritain.co.uk

With webspace rental you don't have an annual hosting fee; you can choose the length of time that you wish to display your webpages (3 months minimum); and in conjunction with our sister company we will produce a website with a URL of www.onlinebritain.co.uk/mycompany

This flexible option is similar to the basic pdf website - it allows you the opportunity of having a pdf file uploaded to the internet, with an easily identifiable URL, which you can use to promote your business or products.
Please click here to see more details, an example, and order form.
Cost is £12.50/month - so is an excellent starting point for those wanting to test whether a website will be beneficial.

 

     the average website

There is no 'average' website !

The styles above are very clear-cut and precise. In reality most websites contain various content, and may contain different styles on each page.

We can tailor your website to suit your requirements, and it's probable that you won't ask us to produce a website that exactly matches the above categories.
It is possible that you may decide on a three page website containing two single screen pages (business style), with another page being 3 screens long (descriptive style).
Or you may decide on a 5 page website containing 2 informative style pages (2 screens long) and 3 business style (single screen).

Based on the content that the website contains, we will provide you with a quotation before we commit you to any costs. In many cases this will mean that the costs could be lower than the examples above.

    e-commerce .....

Whatever your needs we can provide simple and cost effective solutions for your e-commerce requirements.

An on-line shopping facility can be set up for a very reasonable cost - don't be put-off by people telling you it will cost thousands of pounds! We will show you how it can be done within your website budget. A typical e-commerce solution could start at £250, and the simplest solutions could be accomplished from as little as £50. On-line shopping can be slightly specialised, so please contact us to discuss your requirements.

E-commerce can make your website pay for itself, so we make it easy for you to add e-commerce facilities - its so simple that you can set it up even if you don't already have facilities to accept credit card payments !

 
 

     how to keep your costs down .....

The first step to knowing how much your website will cost is to know what you want your website to contain.
Keep the content brief, but informative.
Remember that any potential customers will want to look at your website, but will only want to spend a few minutes before they move onto something else. It is important to grab their attention with a few key facts, well laid out on the page, rather than trying to tell them a story.

We specialise in producing on-line brochures and internet presence websites.
If you already have a brochure then we can adapt this to the internet, or we can use the 'clean sheet' scenario and write your internet brochure without using any pre-conceived concepts.

A webpage consists of pictures and text.
If you already have a logo, digital photos, and pictures then part of the work has already been done, and we will be able to reduce our costs accordingly. If you don't have the photos available then we will be able to take digital photos of your business to use on your webpages.
The same applies to the text needed on the webpages. Some clients prefer to provide us with exact detail of the script to use on the webpage, while others will ask us to write the script for them. Our prices will reflect the amount of time which needs to be spent on preparing each webpage.

Whichever you choose, we will provide a professional looking website that reflects the high standards of your business.

Remember, we only charge sensible prices!

 

     hosting and on-going support

Hosting is the other side of the website package, which is more fully explained on the FAQs page.
We provide ongoing support as part of the hosting package for all the websites which we produce so that you know that there will always be someone there to answer your questions. As part of this support we periodically resubmit your website to the search engines.

Hosting and support is inexpensive and you pay just £20.00 per quarter (invoiced annually in advance) or a reduced rate of £12.50 per quarter when paid by standing order (invoiced quarterly in arrears) -
that's less than £1 per week for 24/7 availability !

These prices should only be used as a guide.
Every website will be different, and our quotation will be based on the actual amount of work involved. This may be less, or more, than these guide prices.

The more preparation you can do .....                         
                            ..... the lower the price we will charge.

Remember, we only charge sensible prices !
