WEB
PRICING
Martin
Media Solutions offers a simple pricing structure
so you know how much your web site will cost. Custom
designed web sites are billed at $100 per page. If you
need a simple one-page site for posting family photos or for
sharing announcements, you pay $100. If you need a
three-page site to present your small business to the
Internet community, you pay $300 (does not include shopping
cart). A ten-page school site will cost $1000.
There are no minimum number of pages and no set up fees, as
you will find with some designers. There are
additional costs for sites that require extensive scripting
and for e-commerce capability.
You
might be asking, then, what can be included on each $100
page. Of course, one could include all the text and
photos from a three-page site on the first page, but
requiring your visitors to scroll down more than a couple of
screens violates the tenets of good web design. If your
visitors have to scroll through several screens to see your
site, most of them will simply move on. For that
reason, MMS
reserves the right to limit each page to a length of
approximately two full screens. There are exceptions,
as you will see within the MMS
web site, where "anchors" are used to direct the
visitor to a certain portion of a long page, but this
technique should not be used to merely reduce the number of
pages required for a given web site.
The
design price includes loading the pages on a host provider
of your choice and testing of the posted site (additional
long distance fees will apply, if your host does not offer
FTP access for web site administration). Most Internet
service providers (ISP's) charge a reasonable monthly fee
for hosting web sites. Of course, MMS
also offers low-cost hosting services and will host your
site for a flat $12.95 monthly fee. MMS
does not upload pages to America Online.
MMS
can
design a graphic logo, if you don't already have one, for
use on your site. You will also be provided the image
file to use on your business cards and stationery.
MMS
will
register your web site domain name (for example,
mycompany.com) for $34.95, which covers the first year.
The registration authority agency requires you to renew your
domain name registration every year to every two years,
depending on the payment options you select. See Web
FAQ's or Web Services pages for
more information on domain name registration. This fee
only applies to sites hosted by Martin
Media Solutions. Domains
with .info or .biz require two-year registration up front.
