Determining The Cost
There is a tremendous range in the quality of sites to be seen on the web, from the ridiculous to the sublime.
Shopping for a web site is no different than shopping for anything else. If you choose quality and originality over other choices, the final result will be out there for all to see. It doesn't necessarily mean that you must spend a great deal of money in order to have a quality web site. There are a lot of beautifully designed sites that were made at reasonable cost just as there are a lot of amateur sites that were created at great cost.
Finding a small company, like Sausalito Web will be cost efficient because of the multitasking that we are able to provide our clients. This results in a lower cost to you. We have expertise in all areas of creating a web site and the only time we call upon an outside contracter is when the project is large and an estimate and professional bid must be submitted.
Prices vary and I believe that you should be able to come to an understanding with your designer/developer on a price that you can afford. Especially in today's economy, bargaining is a reasonable option. Before you do come to the bargaining table, it is necessary to have a clear idea of what is needed on the site that you wish to be developed. Searching the web to find a design you like will facilitate the process of creating the perfect site with few hits and misses along the road of development.
Hosting
The price of a hosting company can wildly vary. The company you choose should be able to handle almost all of the hosting problems because web companies either use their own server to host or have a close relationship with a hosting company that values their business and will give excellent service because of their long-standing relationship with the developer.
If your site is new, please delay the process of choosing a domain name and hosting until you have contacted the developer. You can usually get a better deal by letting them handle that part of the transaction. Our hosting is very reasonable and sometimes a deal can be struck with a year's free hosting and domain name.
FLASH
I feel that I must make a pitch for having multimedia or "FLASH" on your site. It has had such bad press from some web companies simply for the reason that there are few people who can create a visually impressive Flash site or applet. It is clearly a case most often of "If you're not able to do it, knock it". The curve of learning for this wonderful program is very high and there has been personal problems, (which have been for the most part resolved) between Apple and Adobe. We truly believe that having a beautiful site is of utmost importance. Flash has the ability to transcend a site to the realm of a work of art thus leaving a lasting impression on it's viewers.
