AT Technical Website Development

Once we have met and discussed the design and functional requirements we will prepare a proposal then once this is signed off we can commence work usually a within a week

Yearly costs will include, costs of custom plugins if any, costs of the domain/host name and the cost of hosting. To give an example .com or .co.uk domain names typically cost between £10.00 and £20.00 per year. 

Hosting depends on the type of website and requirements:

Shared hosting environment will cost between £80.00 - £120.00 per year. 

Dedicated Hosting will cost between £800.00 - £1500.00 onwards per year (the variation in cost is due to things such as RAM, HDD, CPU and network bandwidth)

For a standard Word Press website without E commerce functionality you would expect to pay about £110.00 per year for both Hosting and Domain name. 

It will be very easy to update your own site, we cover trianing on all projects and we also will build a custom handover document which will give step by step guidance on how to do common activities on the website. 

We only build websites using WordPress CMS which is the most popular website content management system in the world. 

Following the website launch/Sign off we will continue to support for 2 months, as part of the development process, then towards the end of the 2 months built in support we will send across a contract proposal for you to review and advise if you want us to continue to support or happy to support locally with in house IT Teams or on your own.  

Yes. Once the website goes live and the 2 months built in support lapses a contract will be shared, this will include a SLA depending upon the needs of the support arangement this would range from 1 hour turn around time to 24 hour turnaround time on tickets logged. 

Yes. We will run SEO checks on your site once it goes live, and make required changes based on the SEO report, if we are adding improvements to an existing website we will run benchmark SEO checks before and after.

During the development we will ensure all SEO best practises are followed such as: Keywords in title tags and within the page content, Alt tags on all images, website load speed, image size, secure coding guidlines and many more.

We consistently keep upto date with the ever changing SEO techniques.

Once we send a proposal and this is approved we require a 10% deposit as a commitment to the project the remainder of the project cost is invoiced once the website is signed off as complete. 

The website will automatically work across devices and different browsers, we conduct various different tests on the website before handing the website over and many of these test across different devices, screen sizes and browsers. 

Yes, we work closely with your team/s to gather resources but if needed we can also prepare graphics and use a content writer to prepare custom copy content to grab the readers attention on your website.

The website will conform to all main SEO guidlines. 

In terms of digital marketing this would be a seperate discussion and proposal to assist on this part but we would happily discuss this with you.

Costs include:

One off Development costs

Hosting: cost to publicly host the website 

Domain host Name: cost of the .org .com .co.uk sort of domain name billed yearly 

Plugin Ins: WordPress has many custom plugins some are free some are paid if we use custom plugins to continue recieving updates for such plugin you may need to pay a yearly subscription which can range from £10.00-£200.00 per year. This is only if such plugins are used and if we were to use paid plugins this would be clearly communicated within the project proposal document. 

There is no hidden costs as such any costs will be clearly communicated in the proposal. If you need support with the website this will be a seperate contract which we would discuss with you following the website development and go live.
