Website Setup

I prepare two types of websites: static websites and Wordpress sites. The website you are viewing now is an example of a static website which I have customized from a free template. Another example is the website of the non-profit organization Learning Equipment Supply Service, at http://learnmorewithless.org, shown here at the left.

At the right is an example of a Wordpress site I have prepared. This is customized with the "Avada" theme, and is for a group of healthcare information technology consultants, Med-Elite Consulting.

For WordPress sites, often the template is a theme that starts out free, but requires a purchase for customization; in these cases, the customer buys the theme from the theme authoring entity, and then pays me for customization time. The theme authors/owners usually charge $30 to $60 for the customization access privileges. For example, the owners of the "Avada" theme for the site shown at the right charged a one-time of $60 to get customization access.

Once the site has been built, some customers need minor updates and additions occasionally. For this work, I charge hourly at some rate that suits both parties. For most minor updates I am able to offer a 24-hour turnaround, as long as the changes do not require additional customization of the existing WordPress theme.

Cheap Web Hosting

In addition to the customization of your website, you will need a place on the internet to park it.

I am a reseller for Webhost.pro, which is a company that runs servers where you may park your website. I have chosen Webhost.pro because they're located in Los Angeles, they're quite cheap, and because they are a small business too. Customer service is speedy there, and the business owner himself is often the one who responds.

In most cases, I can set up your site's hosting, with the domain name of your choice, for $10/month. If you prefer to do it all yourself, of course you can get basic hosting at Webhost.pro on your own for as low as $2.99/month. Here is a link: http://webhost.pro
