Site Maintenance: $45.00 per hour

Some Web design firms charge a high mandatory monthly maintenance fee but we feel that this isn't right for everyone. For those who prefer the pay-as-you-go method you are not obligated to sign a maintenance agreement. If you need a modification on your website, all you have to do is call or send email. We'll make the change for you and then you'll receive a bill based on an affordable hourly rate for the work we did.

This method of maintenance works well for many websites since they don't require many changes. For those who would prefer a maintenance contract, you can pay a low monthly fee of $39 and receive 2 free hours of maintenance a month.
