Hi Rich,
<br>
<br>I confess to being a little disappointed that you didn't get any responses. I was curious and hoping to gain some insight myself from this as a discussion. That said, one has to be careful that the discussion doesn't have an appearance of price fixing, which is part of why I didn't offer anything until now.
<br>
<br>I will say that a young but talented Graphic Artist/web designer friend of mind puts sites together in the $2500 - $5000 range. That's a price point I can't compete with. Honestly, I've stayed out of the Wordpress arena except where a custom API plugin has been required. Even then, most of the local Western Mass businesses I've talked to opted for manual loading of their data into WP pages vs. the cost of custom development.
<br>
<br>I would be curious to hear from others on the topic now that the ice is broken?
<br>

<br>I am working on a few projects and need some ballpark costs to build into the numbers.
<br>
<br>The cases would all be for a graphic designer+web developer (type not important: individual, team or company)
<br>The site would be Wordpress without needing hosting or technical support - I would be handling that.
<br>SO the needs would include:
<br> This are medium sized sites, the bulk of content is from various data sources with a few static info pages.
<br> Basic branding (no high end commercial branding)
<br> Basic rules as to color and look, perhaps including suggested icons.
<br> A few sample pages showing these rules
<br> Recommending generally available themes/plugins (not including the cost of those)
<br> Reasonable response time, not rushed while not more that 2-3 months either.
<br>
<br>I am looking for comments are to what an effort like this would cost, these is not relatively small budget, rather small projects.
<br>
<br>Hourly rates by themselves not helpful - total cost is question, although component breakout would be useful
<br>This is not a request for a quote, although it is an opportunity to get on my list of to get details from for specific projects.
<br>Note: this would also give me a chance to update the Hidden-tech directory as to graphic developers.
<br>And please do no respond with anything visual although URLs are welcome.
<br>
<br>For current timing, sooner would be better - at least one of these is part of a grant proposal that needs to be included
<br>by Feb 5th (coming Fri)
<br>
<br>Stay well all - Rich
