The cost of a complete website depends on the features you need and the amount of content you have. Basic informational websites cost $2000, and full featured e-commerce websites cost around $3000. All projects include all marketing content about your business as well as training for you to maintain your website and products yourself.

Of course we offer free estimates. More complex projects may require custom programming and migration of database information, etc. and can cost more than the standard price, if so we can provide a quick estimate given adequate information.

The only ongoing cost for most projects is website hosting that runs $200/year. For specialty plugin subscriptions can cost extra, but most plugins are free. If we train you to manage the website yourself, it will save you money down the road. We can also maintain your site and keep it up to date for you if you prefer.

Our sites are custom websites to meet the needs of your brand so if you have some other sites in mind you’d like to emulate that would be great.

We have built websites for more industries than we can count, so changes are we’ve built a website for your industry and have ideas on how best to organize your service information and marketing efforts on the site.

We use the powerful and popular WordPress platform because it is the most flexible, cost-effective, and customizable. We train you to manage the website yourself to whatever degree you wish. The platform can perform automatic updates to keep the site up to date and secure.

We know what these days, most website visitors are using their phones. The website will be mobile responsive and will look and work equally well on all devices.

There are SEO plugins that we often install, but down the road, we can offer further SEO on the site to adjust keywords and site structure based on the data from past visitor experience.

Our websites load quickly and we use an optimized VPS for hosting that help with speed and performance.

Having a blog is an excellent idea for improving your search engine visibility and we can train you to add blog posts yourself.

Normally, we provide links to website visitors to visit your social media channels from the site. However, we recommend that you create your Blog posts on your website and then post links to your website’s blog in your social media, not the other way around. That way, you’re leveraging your social media channels to drive traffic to your website.

We generally install the Google Site Kit plugin which provides all the analytics you need right inside you website dashboard.

We are located in bend and provide customer support 9-5 on weekdays or by email or text for emergencies. If you need a reminder on how to create a new blog post or change the price of your products, call us anytime. If you need to add new services or features to your site, we can do that too, for an extra charge.

We secure our website with security plugins to ensure that the site doesn’t get hacked. An SSL certificate also is provided with our hosting automatically to ensure encryption.

WordPress is infinitely scalable, so as your site grows it is easy to add new services, new features, to start selling products, add shipping rates, you name it. We also can provide custom programming to make custom plugins to meet your needs. Often we create custom plugins to provide an administration tool in the backend of the website to help streamline their organization or business needs.

WordPress is a system that can scale easily and there are hundreds of thousands of plugins available to extend the features of the platform. We also offer custom programming and can make custom plugins to make your site do anything you need. Often, we create custom plugins for administration tools that help streamline your business needs.

We recommend a portfolio or projects section to showcase your past work. It can be helpful to your prospective clients to be reassured that you excel at the same type of project they have.

The time it takes to complete a site depends on the type of website and the amount of “content” (descriptions, products, posts, etc.) that needs to be created. Most websites can be completed between 1-4 weeks. The time it takes to complete the project also depends on how responsive the client is in providing content ideas, images, feedback, etc.

Once a website is complete and the final payment has been made, it only takes a few minutes to make it live. However, it will still take a couple of weeks for Google searches to pull it up as it takes some time to “propagate” and for Google to index the site properly.
