Many web development firms claim they can produce search engine friendly websites and there is nothing wrong with this claim. The CMS technology has come a long way and most of the content management systems are built to output search engine friendly URL structures and at the same time they minimize the other negative SEO signals like duplicate content and URL canonicalization too.

However, when a web development company misconstrues their offering as “search engine optimized”, there is a case for the client to look deeper into it. As a premier web marketing firm, our project estimates typically start with an overall understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the client website. We get daily requests to redesign and revamp websites and this is when our creative team works with the search marketing team to identify issues with search visibility and conversion optimization on the websites. Our solutions are as much about visitor conversion and interaction as they are about design and programming.

Website design and development as a service stream has grown exponentially in the last 5 years. With more and more service providers jumping on the bandwagon and the Internet opening up the International boundaries, a lot of design variety and skill diversity is available.

However, this variety of service offering also creates confusion in the minds of buyers. With pricing all over the place, most of the web design service buyers ponder over the reasonable cost of web design and development. You can find web designers and web design firms who would be willing to do a website design for $600 while at the same time some others don’t even touch a project for less than $10,000, and even more web designers fall in between these price ranges. So what is the right price for a website design or redesign?

The answer is that there is no one right price for your website needs. Just like buying a car or an SUV, this too depends on a multitude of factors.
