$75 - 24 Hour Website Design Contest

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by BlueVM, Oct 13, 2012.

    I need a 1 or 2 page website design for a web hosting company. I need the design to be clean, professional and feature hosting for $5 per year (yes $5 per year)...

    Requirements:
    1. The main page / home page should be fairly simple looking... drawing the customers in and promoting the features of the hosting. Example features:

    5 GB of Disk Space
    500 GB of Bandwidth
    Up To 5 Domains
    Cpanel with Installatron
    Unlimited MYSQL Databases
    Unlimited Email Addresses
    Unlimited FTP Accounts

    2. The sub pages should be integratable with WHMCS (not saying you have to integrate them), just leave a spot in the center of the page for it...
    3. I like the color blue, but green/black/darker red/etc... should be acceptable.
    4. If the main page can be stripped down to create sub pages, that is acceptable.

    Sites I like:
    http://www.networksolutions.com/web-hosting/index.jsp
    http://creeperhost.net (I realize this is a minecraft host, however I like how clean and organized it is... this is one of my favorite designs)
    http://bluevm.com
    http://fatcow.com
    http://www.webhosting.net/
    http://www.siteground.com/

    Things I like: Mascots, if it has a cool animal or a penguin or something that's recognizable it's probably good.

    Things I really hate: Cheesy looking people, anything that looks cluttered, super-bright colors.

    Things I dislike: people on a site in general

    Prize: $75.00
    Rules: Design the site in photoshop and present the image here or PM it to me for a private entry. State whether or not you will code up the html/css for the site (this will effect who wins by 20%, the design itself will make up 80% - So if you can't code, but your a fantastic designer you can still win.). Submissions (images) must be made within 24 hours of this post. If you are able to code it, the code will be due within 48 hours after the contest ends.

    So one page with the ability to strip off some images to make it a sub page for $75 is too much work? It even says you don't have to code it and that if you do it only counts for a small portion... What would you suggest would be a fair amount?

    Why not you contact a person who can do yours needs? I mean you wouldn't get many participating on contest which is related to web designing. (My opinion)

    And $75 is a fine price for it!

    I suppose you are looking for designing as well as Coding . If yes, then 75$ is pretty cheap.
    I can get you the PSD for 75$ though.

    The CH already mentioned that he doesn't need it to be coded, if I am right.

    Yes... I think that needs to be cleared up... So if we don't code the template, we still get $75.00 bucks but have a 20% less chance of winning the contest to begin with? And if we can code it, we still only get $75.00 but have a 20% better chance of winning over somone who cant code?

    Is this what you mean?

    I believe he means if you can also code your design you have a higher chance of winning. He is going to pay extra for the coding. BlueVM just would prefer to choose someone who will be able to also code there design that way he will not have to hire someone else to code it.
