How to pay less?
Complete webdesign can be replaced by an existing webdesign import into CMS Made Simple, in case you already have a webdesign done, or buy one on internet, or find a free opensource on internet. For example, you can find very good free and open-source designs on the following websites
- http://www.mitchinson.net/templates.php
- http://www.hewison.net/free-web-template-designs.html
- http://andreasviklund.com/templates/
- http://www.sixshootermedia.com/free-templates/
- http://www.dcarter.co.uk/templates.html
- http://www.designsbydarren.com/free-css-templates/
- http://www.freecsstemplates.org/css-templates/
- http://www.openwebdesign.org/
- http://www.oswd.org/
- and others (but avoid templates on templatemonster.com and templates with flash and/or tables).
We import it in CMS Made Simple on your website and assure the code is valid. The price will vary, it depends on the quality of the code:
- the code is semantically correct and validates with the XHTML and CSS standards, this will require a low amount of time (this is the case of the designs available in the above-mentioned links), usually the lowest price below.
- the code is not correct (even if it's display suits you), and will need a re-work of the HTML and CSS code, this will require a bit more work. This is often the case with layout based on tables, or frames, or without stylesheet (example, the color is set in every paragraph)
- no design exist under the code-form, but you provide a design in an image format.
Price subject to estimation between CHF 300 and 700

- Flash We do not recomment Flash on websites. Designers used to follow a trend with Flash, but now realize that despite their high graphic skills, Flash websites are sometimes considered more as decoration and are often not very accessible and easy to browse for users (human) and search engines (bots). However, you might really want to have a Flash header or menu, or even a total-Flash website, so we work in partnership with 2 Flash designers and can request a quote for you. However, you must be aware the amount of work is often very high, so will be the quote.
