Our sites are ‘responsive’, which means that our focus is not only on PC ready, but also functioning on phones and tablets. We will also be building your site with the latest tools, plug-ins and design options available to create you a new design, sitemap and functionality within Google’s expectations, which will result in more business for Wenatchee Handy.
The following proposal will spell out our ‘deliverables’, benefits, design and content features of this project as well as offering further branding services.

Landing Page
$1,100 – $1,500
A landing page is a standalone web page distinct from your main website that has been designed for a single focused objective. Many landing pages have a distinct objective to sell a product or service and may not have any global navigation to tie it to your primary website. The main reason for this is to limit the options available to your visitors, helping to guide them toward your intended conversion goal.
Basic Website
$2,500 – $7,500
The most common type of websites we build are small 10-20 page websites that act as an online brochure with some additional functionality such as calendars, custom forms, sliders and blogs. It will serve to help brand and market your company, showcase your products and services and inspire sales as a lead generating tool. All our sites us the latest standards to allow your site to look the same on nearly every computer/device.
Mid-size Website
$7,500 – $18,000
These websites usually consist of many pages and custom functionality not found in the standard WordPress CMS. Many membership and real estate listing sites can be created within this price range depending upon the level of functionality and design. Although these sites do have custom design work, more expensive elements like CMLS Membership functions and restricted pages will affect pricing.
