Google automatically index sites with their crawler now. It no longer necessary to submit to them.
That was my point…
Well you can still "submit" a site to google. That's why I didn't get your point straight away.
My total comes to around $60-$80. Honestly, for $240, I would be expecting a whole of lot more functionality/better design than the templates they have listed on their site that come with this package.
Whilst im not saying this deal is good value, but a proper logo is worth more than $20.
It could be worth a $1 or $100000 (like a woolworths one or something). I am making an estimate based on what I perceive the quality of the services to be.
You seriously think a mob like that is going to give you a custom-designed logo as opposed to some clipart/stock image?
Those 'templates' make me laugh. Not "funny ha ha" laugh either.
I feel sorry for anyone that wastes their money on scamshops like that.
Melbourne Council paid $250K for there 'M' Logo!
Use Weebly. It's probably easier to set the website up yourself than tell someone to develop it. Plus it's free and offers much more functional value.
Waste of time, do this yourself in an hour or two. The logos shown on portfolio are a joke too. Any self respecting company will have to dish out several hundred dollars to make a proper logo.
I find it hilarious that people slam a service by saying "it's cheaper to do it yourself." So is baking, but you buy bread, don't you? Under $300 to essentially set up a web presence is nothing. Sure, you may have to deal with the consequences of 'getting what you pay for', but if any of you feel like doing all these things for me for $80 (that's what you quoted, right watwatwat), then I have a couple of jobs that I'd be happy to send your way.
The cost of bread is small scale and it is unfair to compare that with this deal. Also I don't even think baking would be cheaper in my case, not to mention to the same quality as purchased bread.
Slap on $20 for labour and I'll do it. I promise I can make you enough static html webpages to fill your heart with contentment.
what sort of bread are we talking here?
Mr Potato Bread from Bourke Street Bakery… If anyone can make that at home, I'll marry you. :)
Totally a joke, how much value does a single page offers to a company/any one.
If anyone willing to spend any money on a logo/website, they are willing to spend more than this price, provided the price justifies the benefits to the company.
Try a different pricing model.
On the surface it's not badly priced, but from a technical perspective you're not getting much particularly as they don't seem to know how to code very well.
I seem to be offering a few pro tips of late so I'll add some more:
- combine and minify your CSS and JavaScript.
- don't overload on meta tags. Google saw through that trick about 10 years ago.
- learn semantic HTML. Tables are for tabular data, not layout.
'minify' is a perfectly cromulent word.
I'm sure it means next to nothing to anyone who's not a web developer :o)
It costs me $80 to rent a cheap VPS from US, I can host at least 100 websites like this.
How is this a bargain at all? Ugh. I think it has all been mentioned by other posters.
Simply a case of posting to the wrong crowd. This would be far better off being in a newspaper add/classified rather than here. Something like this will obviously get slammed here as we're all tight arsed bargain hunters who wouldn't pay a dime to set up a website.
How do you 'sumbit' to Google? Get on your knees?
