Hey,

i know im new here, well, 1st post really, but i wanted your opinion on my website design and what you would roughly pay for it coded.

 

Front Design

 

Half of the profile area

 

Although its a Social networking design, it wouldnt have to be.

 

Thanks for any feedback and if you are possibly interested then please contact me

The Design is looking nice bro...

yep, everyhting is customizable. its designed in photoshop aswell.

 

thanks for your comment

Price depends what we're talking about - is it just a template, or the whole site coded? Template on it's own wouldn't be worth a lot, especially for a social networking site. The requirements for something like that would probably be quite inflexible - someone wanting a social network site would have a feature list and the chances of an off-the-shelf template fitting it are pretty minimal. Thn there's the design - would it fit with their target market and marketing strategy?

 

If this is a template without any backend work, you'd be better off adjusting it so that it could be used as a myspace layout or similar.

You are quite right - just what I was going to say...

 

To produce a template to fit the design you have chosen is relatively straightforward. Probably about a day and a half's work to copy it directly and get everything working correctly cross browser and validated. I would probably make this from scratch for about £375 - £500

 

To code it, add the content, scripting to create log in's, favorites, user profiles, downloads and videos, blogs would take several weeks. 6 weeks full time to get the basics coded would be around £8500.

 

I charge an average web design rate of £40 per hour.

 

There are many varied level web designers who could do this from a back bedroom. You could get some 15 year old to do it as a project for pocket money maybe?

 

Hope this is what you are looking for.

 

Paul.

yeh it would just be the coding of the template and not the actual system

 

i am 17 but havnt really had a lot of time because of A levels.

 

Thanks for your information and it was quite revealing how much people could make from web design. Thanks
