Our Fees
Why don’t most of our competitors put their pricing on their websites? The main reason is the same reason why we haven’t done so previously – most projects don’t slot into a “one size fits all” pricing model.
Having said that, we think it is useful to give you some idea of what working with us is likely to cost you. That way you won’t be calling us if you want a full blown e-commerce site on the first page of Google in a competitive category for “£1000 or less” – you may well find someone who SAYS they can do that, and our advice would be two fold – feel free to use them, but do appreciate that you do tend to get what you pay for – much like the rest of life really!
General Fees
We charge £70/hour for small jobs, or £500/day (7.5 hour working day) when quoting for a project and ongoing work such as search engine optimisation.
We charge £0.40/mile for traveling to you by car, the cost of a standard class rail ticket when traveling by train and the cost of a regular fare ticket when traveling by air.
Unless you have worked in the industry you really won’t know how long a site takes to build. Even if you choose to work with someone else, we’d strongly advise you to not only make your decision based on price.
It is logical that people who are freelance and work from home are going to be cheaper. There are some fantastic freelancers out there – I’m obviously not going to name them! – but always check how long they have been in business – you really don’t want one of your key marketing channels’ support function to suddenly disappear off traveling!
We won’t fully know what your site will cost you until we have ascertained the scope of your project either. Once the full scope is agreed, we are more than happy to work to a fixed price.
One thing we would say in our favour (there are others of course!) is that we are quick, so whilst our daily rate may be higher than some of our competitors, our actual fee will likely be more than competitive. All prices are EX VAT.
Upon appointment, we will provide you a fixed price for your project for all elements that can be fully specified. Other elements, such as the visual design, will have a tight estimate applied and in reality this will be pretty much correct too, so once we get to work you will not be getting any nasty surprises!

Summary
We believe our pricing is fair and reasonable for the value that we will add to your Internet presence. If you think we sound expensive, please do us both a favour and save the ‘phone call! We do negotiate prices obviously, but we won’t spend an hour discussing £50 – it doesn’t make sense for you or us!
We are happy to look at performance based deals for Online Marketing Services and will also be happy to negotiate an overall price for a given period of time if that suits you. Bottom line, we are flexible but we don’t mind admitting that we are in business to make money, just like you!
