How much does a web site cost?
Ah yes, the most popular and difficult to answer question of all. Short answer, it depends.
All websites are different, so it’s sort of like asking “How much does a car cost?”
That said, you may find our article “How much does a web design cost?” useful as a general starting reference.
How long will it take?
That’s another tough question to answer. It depends on what type of site you need built. You can expect that the most simple project will take at least 6 weeks from initiation to completion. That allows us to give special thought and attention to your website. It also provides plenty of time for back and forth and communication between you and us.
Are you available?
We are available to take on new projects, and would love to hear about yours!
Please feel free to submit your request for a quote in order to have your project considered at any time.
Are you interested in my project?
Feel free to read “Are We a Good Fit?” to get an idea if we’d be a good fit for each other or have a look at "Our Capabilities" page to see if we're able provide the service your interested in.
And of course, dont be afraid to get in touch with us to discuss your project.
We promise, we won’t bite. Too hard...
Do I need to have all my content (text, photos, media) ready?
Preferably, yes. We can provide photography services or help look for appropriate stock photos and other media if needed, but your site text should be ready before the design process begins. The reason why we prefer this is because it helps us to determine the tone of the design and also what your website should contain. There are also spacing and other layout issues to take into consideration as well.
If you don’t have your text ready and need help with this, we’ll be more than happy to refer you to a copywriter that can help.
Can we talk about my new project?
We’d love to! Fill in our quote form to get your project started right away or contact us to start a conversation with us by email.
Can you write my website copy, photograph my products, etc?
We do provide services outside of web design, development, and illustration sector including photography and videography, as well we partner with several other great companies for all of the services we don't provide! And of course, if we can’t help, we’ll put you in contact with someone who can.
Will you provide me with several concepts (mockups) to choose from?
Here at Highfive Media we have a one concept policy. We believe in giving you the very best well thought out solution that we can, rather than one very good concept and several more mediocre ones.
Do you assign me the copyright on the web site design after I pay?
Not unless agreed to in advance. We normally assign exclusive rights to you to use and reproduce your web design in it’s final format. That means you can’t use elements from the web design for other materials and media without written permission from us. This is different than a logo design in which the full copyright is passed over to you.
In some cases, upon request, we can negotiate the passage of the copyright over to you. This is done with extra fees as agreed upon between both parties.
Can you provide references?
Of course! Please take a look at our portfolio page for some of the projects we have worked on and case studies for each project to get an idea of our capabilities.
I’m ready to go, what’s the next step?
