It depends a lot on the designer, but you would probably end up paying a couple of grand

My prices are low because they don't need to be high! I believe that it is wrong to charge a business around 2000euro for a website!

Sorry about the second thing! I didn't know!

Thanks as Always,

That depends on a lot of factors:

- how long it takes to do the site
- how many meetings with clients
- office rent
- office insurance
- staff

And a lot more besides .....

2000 euro is not that much to pay for a business website if you consider how much a single print ad costs

I would consider 2000 euro too much for a website that only has few pages, cause now a days everybody is using some sort of program that does half the job by itself, then few hours just to tune it up, and other bits and bobs.

If graphics are required and it is something that requires a lot of attention and work then i would put the price up a bit.

Now it all depends on the size of it and how complicated the customer is as well.

My Point entirely! Blacknight and Louie, you're right! If it was a complex site with many pages then the prices would be higher!

To be honest, I designed a website for a customer in less then 2 days, with mysql database and complete back-end.
Did small logo graphic for the top of the page and the rest based o css stylesheet.
He wanted to be simple and to the point, instead of graphic heavy.

I couldn't go and charge him 2000 euro for that could i?

Well.. No! It would have to be more, ehh.. How do I place it...? You would have to include more in the package and more in the site!

But if that is what your client specifically asked for - it's perfect!
