Title: Websites
Post by: Jared on Thursday, May 05, 2011, 15:45:21 PM
How many people here have a website?

Or wanted a website but didn't know how to code it or it was to expensive?

Let me know.

*raises hand*

I know Dann wanted one but I'd bet money he's still roaming around the free social sites (facebook, flickr, blogger, etc...).
I know Kody won an epic hosting package like... months ago? But he's still yet to use it. I'd bet money that it will expire without seeing much use.
I think Dennis is content with facebook and would never really have a desire to have a custom site.
I know Killaman (wow, your real name is escaping my mind now...) is too cheap to have a website and probably only rarely uses social sites.

I think that covers the active members...

If you would pay for one, say rather than a lump sum of money you consider a lease option, and how much would be feasible

Guess...... :P  Also, I wouldn't say too cheap, I just have no need for a website.

My hoster (Rodger) does something really good that I like. He offers lifetime plans which is basically the yearly price for 5 years minus 5% or so discount. So if you decide to offer a lease, you might want to discount the lump sum so people are more inclined to do that and that way you get a cart o cash up front.

Well my plan was,

Setup Fee: $250.00
Monthly Lease: $100.00
1 Year Contract.

Total Bill @ 1 Year: $1,450.00

For a contract over 1 year you could get a 5-10% discount.

$1,450.00

No wonder people have basic websites for their companies, usually made in Wordpress or something.

1,450 is cheap. I don't start a site for less that $1,500 and thats basically a brochure website, with everything static.

If that's like an industry standard price... wow. Facebook could use their site to host company sites for like $10 a month. Imagine how much ppl could save and how much Facebook would rake in. You should try something like this with your CMS.

That's what I want to do, but at the above prices, I think $100.00 a month for updates & support it worth it.

Spanky: www.mikawe.co.uk  <---- Take that.

I do want a website...I just haven't had the time to go about it yet. I might request your help at one point or another, Jared & Spanky.

Heck, I might even start working on it straight away with someone willing to help this friend out for free. Well, maybe not for free --I could, maybe, offer a print of any one of my works in a T-Shirt, Cup or any other at your desires that isn't too bloody expensive!

I can help, my mind is pretty fresh in coding too. I'm sure Jared could lend a hand too occasionally but keep in mind he's got paying clients :P
