Service Rates
     Unlike other Web Design companies you may have encountered, Axis Web Design is not out to make huge profits at your expense. We charge a flat rate of $65/ hour for all of the following services, unlike the per-item or per type of service fee you may have encountered elsewhere. We are willing to bid small single jobs for a per-job rate, but any items not in the original contract will be subject to the hourly rate. We cannot at this time bid large contracts for a set fee: there are just too many variables. If you are wondering how much your job might run please tell us a little about it on the estimates page and we will send you an estimate of how much what you've described would cost. Probably a lot less than you think!

     We offer reduced rates for charitable or non-profit organizations if our schedule allows. Feel free to contact us for more details.

Domain Name Registration
      Axis Web Design will help you register your company or personal web domain (www.companyname.com), if necessary. If you haven't already registered your domain name your first few choices may be taken, so consider having a list of acceptable alternatives ready. We are equally happy to work with you if you already have a domain name registered.

Hosting
     Once you have registered a domain name, you need a place to park it. A host typically charges a base price by the month or year for disk space and attached email, with optional extras such as databases and extra email accounts.

     We offer competitive hosting packages for our clients through a special partnership with jppeach.com. We are familiar with the setup of their servers and can therefore streamline the design & launch process by developing in an environment where we've already gotten all the kinks out. Alternatively we will be happy to set you up with the host of your choice provided they offer an acceptable platform for the site you have in mind. Or we can fully design your site and subsequently deliver it to the destination of your choice, by the method of your choice. [If there is a database involved or if the server is setup differently from ours, we will need access to your host in order to set that up.]

Graphic Design
     We will work closely with you to compose a web site that is consistent with your company's history, yet takes advantage of todays technology. We believe that functionality and sleek design run hand in hand. With a little inginuity, the right design can give your customers the kind of satisfying experience that keeps them coming back for more.

Web Development
     We will work with you to find a solution that achieves your web site functionality goals. There are often several solutions to a given problem, ranging in price and efficiency from cheap and "does the job" to more cost and options than you needed, and everything in between. Let us know what your site needs to be able to do, and we will work with you to help you pick the best solution for your price range. We are not out to sell you more than you want.

     We will work with you to create the visual impact you are looking for. We will listen to your ideas and mould the look of your site until it is exactly what you want. We can try to guide you if you're not sure what you want, or we can bring the site you have clearly conceptualized to life.

     The final product isn't complete until we've helped you reach your business or personal goals. We will implement your site as designed in a quick and efficient manner, ready for delivery on time and under budget. Alternately we will also be glad to accomodate changing needs and updates during the implementation phase, if necessary, to provide you with everything you hoped for and more.

Database Development
     Dynamic web content is almost impossible without a database or two. We will be delighted to create tailored databases to suit your custom application needs, or to set up standard databases for more common requirements [customer data, inventory, form data].

     When setting up a database there are two "sets" of pages to keep in mind. There are the pages your customer uses that will dynamically change their content by querying the database interactively based on user input. Secondly, unless you have a database expert in-house, and usually even then, you will need a set of administration pages. These are the pages your employees will use to update the contents of the database by adding or deleting entries, and [if implemented] alter the shape of the database itself.

     Although the increased complexity makes database-driven web sites initially more costly than static ones, many businesses find the increased functionality well worth the additional hours required for implementation.

Maintenance
     Axis Web Design is happy to support web sites that undergo continuous updates. Pricing will vary from contract to contract depending on the service agreement, but will always remain reasonable. If you anticipate frequently needing substantial updates, consider adding a database to minimize your long-term costs.
