WHAT ARE THE COSTS OF HAVING A WEBSITE?
As a web designer, I prefer my client to be awared of ALL costs
of having a website. So before taking the plunge, you should fully
realise that having a website involves more than just spending
a few weeks and a few hundred dollars hiring a website designer
to design one savy website for you. Oh no, the spending goes on
if you want the website to properly serves its purposes.
So here is an outline of approximately how much money you could
be spending on a website and how much B-Link can save you.
-
Initial build cost – search around
and you'll realise that it will cost at least $300 to get
a decent 5 pages website designed. And we’re talking
about the lowest charging rate of web design.
B-Link fully set up and design a professional and scalable
website for you for FREE - starting with 5 basic pages.
Each month you can request an upgrade such as adding ONE
more page to your website.
-
Initial set up cost – AT LEAST
another $150 to get a domain name and hosting to get your
website up and running.
B-Link will takes care of all this for you at NO COST. We
will host your website plus giving you a short, unique subdomain
name of your choice.
-
Ongoing support & update –
if you don't have the time or expertise, could you be paying
at least $20 per hour to employ a website coordinator to
maintain your website? Could you try to learn to do it yourself
and end up wasting more time and money for your business?
We'll take care of your website from top to bottom, inside
and out. Whether it's changing a number, adding a paragraph
or adding a brand new page, we will do it for you upon your
request using our Request
Update & Request
Additional Page forms. Furthermore, if you're experiencing
technical issues with your website, use our online Technical
Report form and we'll fix it asap.
And of course, we'll do all that for FREE.

Marketing cost - “What marketing
cost?”, you might ask. Well what’s the point
of having a website when nobody knows about it? Online marketing
and promotions could cost you up to $500 per month. ONE
common marketing method is Google AdWord.
One client told us: “Last month I paid up
to $300 for Google AdWord and I was only on the 2nd page!”
Google is effective but not cheap as quite a few
number of businesses compete for the front page spotlight.
Are you willing to pay $300 per month? If not, join us today
for a much cheaper solution.
Here’s an interesting comment from “Intergage”,
a large website design company discussing the cost of having a
website.
“You Want To Reduce Website Costs
Owning a website can cost a fortune. A medium sized business
in the UK typically spends around £3,000-£5,000
on a website every 2 years. The website is a source of pride
and joy for only a few months before it slowly starts to become
out of date. The business evolves, changes it's product range
or focus, updates it's marketing collateral and over time the
website becomes less a source of pride and more a source of
pain and even embarrassment. When the company can bear it no
longer, it repeats the exercise!
How about Search Engine services? Not much good having a website
without traffic is it? Add more costs to the increasing list
of bills and suddenly the whole thing can be getting seriously
out of hand. Now add hosting charges and pay a Web Designer
for ad-hoc changes a couple of times a month (average cost £75
per hour). What is this unsatisfactory service really costing?
“
Overall, there's too much to worry about! You've got costs left
and right to own a website. But at B-LINK, we’ll simplify
it. You pay $50 and we’ll do everything! NO INITIAL COST.
In fact, for the first 1 month, you’ll pay nothing.
SO WHAT IS B-LINK?
BLINK is more than website design.
It is a complete package of website design, hosting, marketing
and support. It is a "one-stop" shop if you like.
You could think of B-Link as “Online White Pages, Yellow
Pages or CitySearch.com.au” PLUS FREE website design. At
B-LINK, we let you write more, show more about your company by
designing 5 free web pages for you.
We understand that no matter how many pages a website has, it
should try to convey the following 3 main messages:
1. Who are you?
2. What does your business do? List products and/or services
3. Why should customers pick you over competitors.
Therefore, in your website we allow you to convey those 3 messages
in 4 pages with unlimited text and graphics. The 5th page is a
contact form where a customer can conviently submit questions
or queries that go straight to your email inbox.
We use a series of forms to collect information from you for
the website. The overall process will take you from 1/2hr - 1hr
to complete. You won't have to worry about editing your photos,
WE'LL DO IT FOR YOU!
Is B-Link right for you?

to take the first step into the online world.One day if you feel
ready to take bigger steps, we can fully expand your site, get
a separate domain name and hosting for you. We can even build

We don't want to waste your time with something that might not
suit your business. So ask yourself these questions before consider
