Flat "html" websites can't have dynamic features such as RSS feeds, calendar applications, Blogger API editing, edits in the web browser, etc. If you don't understand HTML and FTP, but you want to edit your own website content, then you will need a dynamic website. See our Easy-to-Edit package.

If you thought you had a simple design and can't figure out why it would cost so much see Time Breakdown of Modern Web Design (offsite link). Mostly accurate except that I use 100% CSS in my own designs -- if there's a design in my portfolio using tables it's probably something the client already had.

Template design for web applications

This fee is already built in to the Easy to Edit Basic package.

• Request a quote based on the application you want to template
• Bring your own design - your current website design
• Choose one from Open Source Web Design or Open Web Design
• Purchase a design from a template house

Fees for templates depend on the complexity of the application's template creation system. This price assumes that Eclectic Tech is being supplied with an HTML/CSS website design, but table-based designs will also be considered. If you have an HTML design with flash components, or a Photoshop document that requires slicing, please inquire.

Custom Design

This fee is already built in to the Easy-to-Edit Deluxe package.

Other applications involve a custom design fee, with a surcharge for creating a template from the design based on the difficulty of creating a template for the package. Inquire about prices on a per-application basis.

Package installation, configuration, and maintenance are available. Here's a list of some of the packages I can install for you. An idea of the starting price range is given, for a basic installation, configuration and basic security plug-ins if any. Additional features, plug-ins, template customizations will increase the base price. If you're interested in other application packages, please ask about them.

• Easy-to-Edit packages starting at $995
• e-Commerce (Zen Cart) from $1,600

From ad design and business cards to banners, I offer years of experience in the print design industry.

Logo design ($1400)

I've decided to give clients an option between a package rate or an hourly rate ($70/hour) on logo design. A logo needs to get the job done, and a package with a set number of trial & errors is not always the best deal for the client. See this blog entry. I need to remain firm on this choice, and also charge rush rates for rush logo work. Logos take 10+ hours of time, from paper and pencil through many choices and iterations, then tweaks to finalize the design. If you choose the package you get one design presented at a time, up to 3 different designs. If you like the design that's presented, you have up to 3 rounds of revisions. Extra rounds beyond the 3 rounds will be charged at the hourly rate. For clients who know they want multiple designs presented and want to go through many rounds of revisions, the hourly rate is the way to go.

Print Design

Full-color glossy business card design, tri-fold brochures, print ad design, etc. Usually charged at an hourly rate, see rates for Logo design. Creatives are at full price, no discounts apply. Clean-up charges apply when you already have a previous ad, business card, flyer, etc. but want something changed: it will be reproduced electronically and altered as specified at a reduced hourly rate. If you want Eclectic Tech to interface with the printers on your behalf, hourly rates apply. We do not do printing, and if Eclectic Tech puts out the money for printing, you must reimburse us at our cost. Eclectic Tech does not resell printing, we charge hourly service fees for taking on these tasks.

If you require artwork clean-up as opposed to creative design, please inquire for a reduced rate.
