Price for Pre-Designed Websites May Lead to Underpayment or Overpayment
The list of problems above shows that dealing with a web design pricing is equivalent to tossing a dart. When potential clients contact us for a new site proposal, we frequently discover that they fall into one of two categories:
- Some businesses paid $15,000 for a website when they needed to have spent $25,000 for a quality site.
- Some businesses paid $15K for a website that only required a $3K investment.
Both scenarios are horrible. Overpaying for a website is obviously undesirable, but underpaying may be just as expensive, if not more so. ROI is crucial for lead creation. For instance, if a $15k website only delivers $500 in yearly ROI but a $25k site would have created $50k within its first year, it is clear that the extra money was wisely spent.
With everything discussed above, it should be evident why Lieutenant Marketing doesn’t provide website design pricing: we are all about providing affordable website design for all budgets.
Being a well-known web design agency, we are aware that the only way for us to provide you an accurate price is to first do some research and get some information about your project. This will enable us to map out an effective course that aligns with your objectives and financial constraints.
One of two routes is frequently taken by our site design team:
1. At the corporate level, they provide individualized website options with a higher level of usability and general complexity.
2. For small businesses that prefer a simpler site, they often provide “express” building options that are less difficult to finish but are still fully configurable.
