Frequently Asked Questions
for Web Site Design & Development with InterKan.Net
Q: What is a realistic
price?
A: Every
site is unique, which is why we do estimates. But below are some ballparks:
- One page web sites typically start around $300;
- Multi-page web sites (new or redesign) start around $1000;
- E-commerce sites with multiple products start around $1,500.
Q: What is a realistic time frame?
A: Typically 6-8 weeks, but that depends on the client.
We rely greatly on the client for timely input and feedback to
build the site.
Q: Can I update the finished web site?
A: Yes, if needed we include options to allow you to easily
update the site via either web-based software or
content management tools like Adobe’s
Contribute. Together, we evaluate
each situation and to help find the best solution for you.
Q: Who owns the web site when you are finished?
A: You do. Including any source files and any custom software.
Q: Will you work with our existing agency, design firm, or in-house
designers?
A: Yes, we will be more than glad to work with others to complete
the job.
Q: Does InterKan.Net have to host our web site?
A: No, you can have your site hosted most anywhere. But it may
affect development costs and options, particularly for
install/integrating software.
Q: Do you build search engine friendly web sites?
A: Yes, we build all web sites to the current Search Engine
Optimization (SEO) standard, which goes beyond simple META keywords
and descriptions. How much additional effort is used depends
on your market, goals, technology, and interest
in natural (non-pay) search engine results/rankings.
Q: Can you help me with search engines?
A: Yes, we can help you optimize your content, develop
links, banner ads, or establish pay-per-click advertising
like Google
AdWords and Yahoo!
Search Marketing.
Q: Do you provide traffic reports?
A: Yes, if you host your site with us, traffic reports are part
of the service. However, if you host your web site elsewhere, the
hosting provider may or may not provide or allow it.
Q: How do I get started?
A: The first step in
our process is to download and fill out our
questionnaire.
Then call (877) 565-0991 or e-mail us
to setup a meeting to start developing an estimate. During the
initial
meeting, we can often give you a ball park cost.
Q: What are your hourly rates?
A: We bill by 15 minute increments at the following rates:
Content - $45
HTML/Graphics - $55
Multimedia Programming - $75
