The internet was first developed as a way of sending information from one location to another, and over time the need grew for more information and in different locations. Hence the internet came about the way that we know it. The internet was originally a private network and was not accessible by the public. It was in the early 90’s when the internet became publically available and people started to realise that there was an opportunity for companies to market themselves on it, as people were not restricted to the amount of brochures that they had printed or the cost of advertising on local or national TV.

The cost of web design in Sheffield was high during this period as only a few companies were able to offer a web design service to companies in Sheffield. Over the course of the internet more companies were started to design websites for customers as the demand increased. However there was a saturation point and this caused the price of the sites to be reduced. There are not many cheap web design companies in Sheffield all offering services to companies. Cheap web design in Sheffield tends to be done by individuals who do not have offices or any great costs. They tend to be the younger people from a design back ground who started to create websites as a hobby and picked up the basics. Using the internet as a platform for marketing, these individuals can create a site and promote their sites, giving the ability to offer cheap web design in Sheffield [to Sheffield companies].

With cheap web design been common place in Sheffield now, it is not recommended to go instantly with the cheapest price. We would recommend that you look at the portfolio of the companies and also look at the quality of their work. You can often tell by the quality of the sites if the company is professional and able to offer a good service to new and existing clients. If you are happy with the designs and the feel of the company ensure that there are no hidden costs associated with the project.

Normally there should be a one off fee for the creation of the site and then annual hosting and domain chargers. These are the only items that you need to have cheap website developed and hosted online on the internet.

More about website pricing:

The price of a new website varies greatly, and like most things, it’s all down to the specification. There are a quite a few initial considerations which will pave the way for the estimate and final quote- the underpinnings of the website are the key.

A couple of good example would be the capability and requirements of the website. When it’s a contact page that needs designing, with a portfolio section and a contact page, then the bulk of the work will just be in the design and layout. After the design is done, most of the details for the portfolio section of the web pages will be populated by the owner. So the technology in this kind of new web design is minimal and the site will generally be around the £495- £750 mark, depending on the level of design work.

A website that is the same format as the one mentioned previously, but with flash elements to the main pages, will require quite a few more man hours. Again, dependinng on the amount of different designs to work on for the flash, this would be about another £250 for the flash elements.

If a site is quite a basic design and structure, and the majority of the content is added (or provided) by the business owner, then the costs come right down. A single or maybe 2 or 3 page design can be provided with an easy content management system. This way, our clients can take the products and information they have and amend in when they want and how they want. The beauty of this is that there is no limit to the possibilities with regards to how much content can be added, which is a cheap way of getting a big website. The search engines also like this kind of website design.

The times we see a website rising in cost always comes down to the amount of man hours put in, and designing bespoke aspects to a website bumps up the price. However, this is usally relative to the size of the project and would have been factored in. When there is a need for one system to talk to another sytem, either on or off site, this means hand coding is normally required.

Our coders are quick and efficient, but it takes time and expertise to get it right. And that is the important bit- your business may rely 100% on these systems working 24 hours a day, in which case they need to be designed and maintained by a professional web design firm like SimpleHQ.com.
