Rates and Other Costs

 

Advertising through website differs from other medium in terms of the timing of ‘investing’. The cost of advertising through magazines, newspapers, and television is spread out through out the length of time you want your business to reach the consumer groups. Each ad may cost less but the cost adds up each time the ad is run. On the other hand, the costs of advertising through a website are mostly up-front. The costs are incurred once and after that, with the exception of minor modifications, updates and maintenance there will be no other cost to pay.


The following rates should give you an overview of how much advertising through a website will cost you and be able to calculate your return on investment.

Photos

Customizing the graphics and editing the photos for optimum downloading are the most time–consuming parts of the work. A site that is graphics–intensive costs more per page than a more text–oriented site.


We have highly–qualified Photoshop Designer and Desktop Publisher on staff.
