Hi,
I have just started out as a freelance web-developer here in India. I offer web-design packages to my clients.
I researched on the internet and came up with some packages as below:
1. 1 homepage + 3 inner pages + 1 contact pages = 5 pages simple =Rs.5000/- or $100.
2. 1 HP + 8 Inner + 1 contact Page = 10 pages = Rs.7,500/- or $150.(Flash Animated Header)
3. 5/10 pages CMS based website = Rs. 11,000 or $225
4. 1 Home Page + 3 Inner pages + 1 contact page + Photo Gallery = 6 pages = Rs. 7500 or $150.
Do u think the price for all the packages are optimal assuming 5 page website charge as the true market price.
What I would like to know what other packages can I includes in my product portfolio and at what price.
Let's say if the site is Flash intensive ( couple of flash images on almost every page or about 3-5 flash swf's in total) then how much should I charge considering the above packages.
Other suggestion like what other charges I can or should not includes.
AMC, Domain Reg, Hosting etc......pls suggest some more.
Any web resources/ links where I can get valuable information about this.
Thanks for your comments.
Well , there is hostgator , google host yahoo and godaddy.
But the most recommended and best web host so far is www.NetworkJuiceHosting.com ; Network Juice.
They now offer plans starting around $0.99/mo for a great amount of diskspace plus everything else unlimited. Plus they've manage to keep up 99% Uptime.
They have all features such as PHP5, java ,Cpanel , Fantastico ( allows you to auto install Blogging systems and CMS portals without wasting time) , Cron Job , Apache ,Unlimited Dadabase , ftp accounts and much more. Basically EVERYTHING! is supported.
There are other affordable plans as well in NetworkJuiceHosting.com.
Hostgator.com is also a great host , but there Uptime time is not so good. Also , customer service is very poor , Not to many features are supported.
Google.com not so sure , But i know there's lots of files they do not support , no Cpanel , and i don't know how come , but they have been receiving downtimes lately in their host servers.
yahoo , let me just say it's the worst web host ever ,you can't even host the amount of domains you want to host . Including FatCow.com. The downtime is way to much , and many files are un-compatible in fatcow for some reason.
To buy a domain , the most recommended site is godaddy , but not for it's hosting!! I Tell you !!!.
For a Great Affordable web host with maximum features , the most recommended web host is www.NetworkJuiceHosting.com . ; Network Juice Hosting.
You are getting your answers from an expert , and yes I have tried all these web host.
That's all I got to say mate ;)
