Pricing is a funny thing. Charge too much and the phone collects dust, charge too little and no one takes you seriously. In each case the result is the same, you go out of business.
We decided early on that we weren't going to compete with cheap and nasty web sites, with the kids in their bedrooms, with off-the-peg templated web sites or other low-cost alternatives. We build premium web sites for premium clients. In our experience cheap web sites can be really really expensive.
The bottom top line
Quality web sites are typically developed over weeks or months. Because our sites are bespoke we end up working with a wide range of client budgets - a typical Semantic web development will fall into the £15,000 - £25,000 ex VAT bracket, with a substantial minority of projects falling either side of those numbers.
However most of our clients will invest between £20,000 and £30,000 per year in their web sites and related activities.
But let's talk about you
But, of course, your budget is your budget. You have a specific amount to invest, or a general range in mind. We understand that, which is why we design bespoke solutions, solutions designed to fit your budget.
It's true that we don't operate at the cheap end of the market (see above). We are a quality agency and our prices reflect that. We believe that "cheap design is expensive".
Well. We would say that, wouldn't we... but our clients agree.
Concessions, exceptions and special cases
As a rule money is not the most important thing to us. If your project is particularly unusual, interesting, or exciting, and you meet most of our mythical client criteria, give us a call.
Just to clarify though, these cases are exceptions. We aren't one of those companies whose "lowest offer" gets lower the faster you walk away.
We drew this smile a long time ago as kind of a joke, but somewhere along the way we realised how important it was.
