Question: Do you charge for a quote? Answer: No. Your first consulation with Web People Media for site design is free. Quotes for specific fixed projects are also free. Repeated requests for quotes on the same project in new configurations will be handled on a case-by-case basis. In all cases, we want you to succeed with your project.

Question: How much does a website cost? Answer: There is no single answer to this question. Your total cost will depend on the size and complexity of the site, and the amount of graphics, programming, and additional functionality, such as Flash animation, video, e-commerce, etc., you need to reach your visitors. If you have a fixed budget, be sure to mention that early in our conversations, so we can work with you to achieve the results you desire, while remaining under budget. If you have a small budget, consider starting with a bcard, at least until your site begins generating money for you and you can plan the next phase.

Question: What are your hourly rates? Answer: We do formulate quotes based on standard hourly design and development rates; however, because of the nature of project development, all sites are quoted on a per-project basis.

Question: What are your payment terms? Answer: All projects start with a one-third down payment and all invoices are net 15 days. Larger projects that may stretch over more than 2-3 months may have their payments broken up further. The second third is due upon completion of initial prototypes, and final payment is due before the site is launched publicly.

Question: What forms of payment do you accept? Answer: We accept PayPal, checks, and cash.
