Website Design Pricing & Hosting Fees

There are many factors involved in determining how much it will cost to design a website for your specific needs. It's not that website design is rocket science, but it is very time consuming work and there are a lot of factors that have to be considered during design that require someone with professional experience. That is why people are sometimes shocked at how much it costs to have a website built. Website design is also a lot like landscaping your yard; you can do a little or you can do a lot, depending on how nice you want your yard to look. Because of the vast range of design needs, it is best for us to review your specific requirements first before providing you with an estimate. It is also helpful, if you have received a price estimate from another designer that you can share with us, to see if we can beat it, because we usually can. Feel free to contact us to inquire about a design pricing estimate.

Hosting is provided to our clients on fast reliable Windows servers that have a 99.9% uptime service level. Our standard hosting is currently $14.99/mo. Our eCommerce hositng is $19.99/mo. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates are priced at $35/yr.

Commonly Asked Questions

We aren't located in New York, can you still design a website for us?

Yes, we can develop a website for anyone anywhere. In fact we have many clients that we have never seen in person.

How long will it take to complete the website?

Expect about two weeks to complete the development of an average sized informational website. Extensive e-commerce websites will take longer but you will receive an accurate development time estimate before a website is started.

How much will it cost to have a website developed?

There are many factors involved in determining how much it will cost to design a website for your specific needs. A small informational brochure-style website will likely be under $1000 dollars to develop whereas a large complex database driven website that requires content management tools, may run several thousand dollars. Because of the vast range of design needs, it is best for us to review your specific requirements before providing you with an estimate. Feel free to contact us to inquire about a design pricing estimate.

After my website is completed do you continue to offer support and maintenance?

Yes, after your website is complete, we offer ongoing maintenance support.

If we use your company what, will you need from us?

After we have reviewed your company's needs, we will tell you what types of information we need from you. Usually this consist of photos that you want to display, any documents containing information you want to say, disks containing information you want on the site, company logos, marketing strategy so we can plan your search engine registration, and general information about your organization or business. Having brochures about your business or organization is also helpful. The more materials we can see and read about your business or organization the better for helping us design your website.

Do we have to pay before the design work begins?

Because there are financial expenditures required during the development phase we ask for half the full design amount up front before we begin work. The other half is payable at completion after you have reviewed and approved your new website.

Contacting Us

Before contacting Kardinal there are a few things we'd like you to know. When you contact us about potential web design work we first consider the size and scope of your project to see if it is a right fit for us. By "right fit" we mean a project that falls within our skill sets and within the scope of the type of work we prefer to do (generally small companies).

For example if your company has 100 employees and has robust ecommerce functionalities, we probably will not take on this project because a company of this size generally should have its own in-house staff to handle website duties. We also do not take on any projects that would not be hosted on our own web servers. This is because we code our sites to run on our server's specific software, architecture, and operating system. Additionally if we are already booked with client work for the foreseeable near-term, we will occasionally close our contact us form during this time because we prefer to devote our full undivided attention to the current projects at hand.

So when you contact us about your potential website design work, consider it a no-obligation opportunity for both parties to evalutate if we are the right fit for each other to work together on your web project going forward.

Dear visitor, we'd love to build a website for you but as of 2020, we are no longer accepting on any new clients. If you still need to contact us, you can continue to our contact form.
