Pricing

How Much Does a Professional Website Cost?

The short answer is: it costs as much as you want it to do.

SDOC Publishing contracts are usually priced by the job, rather than by hours.

The more complete answer is: Every project begins with a comprehensive private consultation. Your business and SDOC need to be a team. You know what you're selling and what you want to say. Then we determine what technology will best suit your needs and your customers' needs.

All projects are priced individually: no two businesses are alike. Thus no two projects - or their prices - are alike either. You won't pay for anything your website doesn't need.

The following prices are rough examples of what projects cost. The quoted price for your project will depend upon your individual needs. Quotes are firm and in writing.
