DESIGN

How do I design a website?

  • For a single fixed fee, Skyfire Designs will provide you with a simple, effective and professional website design of up to 10 pages.
  • The design process initially involves a consultation with you to understand your requirements. At this point, we will agree whether the site needs to be Content Mgmt System (CMS) compatible, as this affects the design and future maintenance.
  • You will then need to supply content so that Skyfire Designs can begin work on a draft site. Your feedback will be requested at regular stages.
  • Existing branding and social media (such as Facebook, Twitter or SoundCloud) can be integrated into the design and support to create new social media channels is available. (This is generally cost-free but some integrations can incur small additional charges).
  • Once you are satisfied with the design, the completed site will be either uploaded to your domain (if available) or provided in a suitable format.
  • Payment will be requested on successful completion.

Standard Design
£360 Fee

  • Includes Consultation and tailored feedback
  • Sites up to 10 pages
  • Integration of existing branding and social media
  • Weebly CMS or SimpleCMS compatible if required
  • Excludes e-commerce sites

Advanced Design
£ Negotiable

(depending on scope)

  • Customised offering for larger or more complex sites
  • Full quotes provided

DOMAIN

How do I setup a domain?

  • Each website requires a Domain Name (e.g. www.mysite.co.uk) and Hosting to store the files in. You may already have this and wish to manage it yourself but if not, Skyfire Designs can handle this for you.
  • Based on initial consultation, Skyfire Designs will provide a list of available domain names for you to choose from and will then handle the purchase and renewal of domain and hosting on an annual basis.
  • A basic 'Domain Verification' SSL Certificates will also be obtained for your domain, enabling the use of 'https' addresses and providing the small lock icon in your browser address bar.
  • This also includes the creation of email accounts or email forwarding addresses (e.g. emailme@mysite.co.uk) and support to setup email accounts on mobile devices or PC email clients.
  • A Google Analytics account will also be created to provide reporting on site traffic.
  • Skyfire Designs will also liaise with the service provider of the Domain in the event of any problems with their service, so you don't need to worry about technical conversations.
  • Skyfire Designs reserves the right to change provider in order to capitalise on existing partnerships but any change of provider will not affect the set fee.

Domain Mgmt
£66 Annual Fee

  • Management of Domain and Hosting purchases and renewals
  • Basic 'Domain Validation' SSL Certificate

  • Technical liaison with suppliers
  • Google Analytics reporting

MAINTAIN

How should I maintain my site?

  • Once your website has been launched, it is important that content remains current. Skyfire Designs offers a wide range of maintenance packages to suite your requirements.
  • Your selection will depend on whether you want to be involved in making updates yourself (which requires some technical knowledge and time) or whether you would prefer to outsource this work entirely.
  • It will also depend on how the site has been designed. While SimpleCMS and Weebly CMS compatible sites can be updated by users, non-CMS-compatible sites will need to be maintained by Skyfire Designs or redesigned.

  • Changes to text, images and small structural alterations included

SimpleCMS Access
£36 Annual Fee

  • Choose this option if... you wish to personally make simple image and text adjustments to the existing site.
