Things that help us provide you with an accurate quote for your WordPress website project:
- Design mockups. Short of that, wireframes and a sitemap.
- Website content for your various pages.
- Clear business goals for your website project.
If you don’t have these items, we’ll start your project with a road mapping phase to determine your website’s scope, features, structure, and design.

Our most basic projects start at $7,500 and go up based on project scope, features, design complexity, and potential project risks we identify.
When the project scope is unclear, or the client budget is unknown, we provide a fixed fee road mapping phase to determine the scope of work. This road mapping projects start at $5,000.
We always bill a fixed fee for our projects. In rare cases, we’ll bill by our day or weekly rate.
We ask for payment in full upfront. For projects that cost more than $10k, we offer 50/50 or 50/25/25 payment terms; if you cannot pay the project fee in full at the start of your project.
