• Existing web sites can be updated to reflect current products, pricing, and other information of value to web surfers for $25.00- $75.00 per page. This includes updating JPG or Gif images.

Note: If you're using etrowork for site updates, and the changes are all text and information changes to numerous pages, we reserve the right to do 100 pages for $500.00 or 20 pages for $100.00.

In some cases saying 25.00 per page is too much... in some cases 25.00 per page is too little... what makes the difference? The time reworking an existing site means house cleaning the page and the links associated with the page.

A good example of needed house cleaning is a site developed in FrontPage. This is real noticeable with Netscape. FrontPage 98 breaks Netscape to the point where anyone using Netscape would think the FrontPage site was designed by idiots. It might look good in Explorer but terrible in Netscape, so terrible the links don't exist or they don't load. To make a FrontPage site play nice in Netscape requires reworking the page almost from scratch (but not always... FrontPage 2000 is reported to be nicer to other browser software).

• Pages requiring Flash or animated GIF require extra time in developing (and in attaining your positive approval) and will be quoted out on a case by case basis.

• New web pages built from scratch start at $40.00 ... what does a $40.00 web page look like ? Click the hyper-text link for some examples.

• Here's an example of a $50.00 web page, and here is a $75.00 web page, this one is $150.00, and this one $250.00.

• Just as important is search engine optimization, directory placement, pay-per-click inclusion, and tracking performance. The days of waiting 6 months to see if a search engine picks up a site are gone like the days of thinking a 133 Pentium was fast. Today, to get results you can see, you have to be willing to market your site.

I tell a friend of mine who's down on web sites that even though his site looks great... it's like writing a book. The book can be outstanding but who is going to read it if no one can find it ?

The answer is to pay a small fee for selected search engine inclusion, to pick the top two companies that offer this service, to optimize the web page with the correct key words and meta tags and in some cases to pay-per-click to insure high placement. Again, if you have a service or product to sell and no one can find your site because the search engines rank it no where... it doesn't matter how good it looks.

Because page optimization can be as time consuming as page development the cost for search engine development runs like a page update... as little as 25.00 per page and as much as $75.00 per page.
