No one likes a surprise when they receive a bill!

Many of my costs are fixed price, so you can get a good idea of what your site will cost just by adding the appropriate prices. Once you decide on the exact size of your site (number of pages, galleries, photos, etc.), I'll be happy to give you a firm price.

The following prices are effective January 1, 2002, and are subject to change without notice.
