Website Design Plans
Website design first begins with the design of a homepage template. You can either choose from one of thousands of do-it-yourself website builder templates and build your own website or hire the skills of a website developer to build a custom template for your company. Do it yourself websites are free with advanced and premium web hosting plans and require no knowledge of HTML. They can be customized but like all software have limitations.
A custom website is built using your company logo, images, files, corporate colours, and content. The following table serves as a guide for the estimated cost of your project because many customers want to get a cost before they submit all the project files. However, until all project files and a website questionnaire is submitted to us at manager@passioncomputing.com.au , we really can't provide you with an exact price. Our custom websites do not require a deposit and payment is made at the completion of the project, so you will know exactly what you are paying for and there is no risk of paying a 50% deposit and waiting weeks or months to see any progress.
Whether you are wanting a HTML website or Content Management System, the process of website development, always starts with creating a custom template.
