Professional Website for $100 ?

What you think of this offer ?
Will I get works if I am offering website designing for $100 ?

 

*sigh*

What kind of question is that?

It depends what you're offering... how many pages, what features, what the quality is like, etc. etc. etc.

 

Yea, you will, however don't cut your limitations short by only looking for work here. To be honest, not to rag on digitalpoint but you will find some of the cheapest consumers with picky expectations which tbh doesn't mix. However, if you offer a high quality service then charge what you think is best. Go to websites where there is less amateur but more experienced designers, so you can charge more. By playing in a market made of amateurs and people who lack portfolios, you have little choice but to lower your prices to even gain a job. So I think the market matters much. I myself charge anywhere from $75 to $400 for a design, it just depends where I am, and who I am talking to.

Also, another thing is do websites locally, you can usually charge more because the locals are usually inexperienced and will be a bit short-sighted as to what a good design is, or question your ability to make a good design. And well, if you are above average, you will most likely surprise them, they will spread the word, and there begins your business locally. It's quite easy, it's just you have to break in first.

But mainly, your quality and the market you're in is what matters most, that will determine most of how much you'll charge for a design.

 

I think that's a fair point. There's a lot of competition here on DP and a lot of it geared around price. Doubtless you can get work at the rate you mention (but I still maintain that you need to say what you are offering for that rate).

 

I think, amt is not matter, amt is depen upon projects requirement. that may be less or high.

 

The word "professional" means nothing, especially here. It's like saying "quality."

Rather than posting and wasting your time, why not advertise your services and see what happens? Seems like the logical approach to me.

 

It also depends upon source of pages development you want something like Static or Dynamic Web Pages

 

I would suggest that you start with craigs list and see how much luck you can have on there. They are much better for local ads which as stated above can help you with getting more people due to their lack of experience.

 

If you want to have $100 for website,The function is limited I think. And There will be bad customer service for cheap.

 

I don't really think for that price a quality website could be done--because that will eat up lot of your time. But if you have lots of pre-made templates yes thats a good price.

 

Depends on your design!

 

It really depends. I used to do cheap professional website designs and found mostly everyone was skeptical of the quality of my designs because I was offering it so cheaply. When I actually upped the price a couple hundred dollars more I got more customers...lol..

 

I think, amt is not matter, amt is depen upon projects requirement. that may be less or high.

 

With that amount, you may miss bigger offers. Potentials will think that you can only offer cheap stuff.. Best to advertise like "Professional website for AS LOW AS $100"

 

I have never worked for a company that defines a flat rate for designing a web site. As others have said it's not all about price it is about the quality of the product and the turn-around-time. In my line of business anyone who tried to sell a website for $100 would be laughed at and not considered serious. I think it would be fair to charge $100 per hour however, because you need to be paid for your time, graphic design and of course overhead costs (software, computers, electricity, etc).

Your best bet is to design few sites to create a portfolio so people can see the type of work you do. This will also give you are realistic idea of how long it takes to create a site. You can then set your hourly rate from there.

 

Even though the market is highly competitive, for such a low price, there might be those who would be skeptical as to how "professional" the website will look like at the end - this would be a backfire.

I personally would not charge as low and work on gaining reputation and higher paying clients rather than selling myself short.

 

Do you have a portfolio?

 

I would be very skeptical of the quality. For $100 I would expect to get a website that looks like dung.

 

If I were a client and the site did look nice, I would then question if the site was just a ripped template or something that was not unique at all. IMO.

 

I am willing to give you work if you have a good portfolio!
