TSM offers a few different types of websites, pre-built themes, and custom designed websites. If you decide to go with a pre-build the cost is typically $599 – $699. If you have your website custom built we charge by the hour at a rate of $80 an hour. Custom built websites are all different but we do offer a free estimate of your project.

Odds are the answer to the question is yes, with how diverse our clientele is the chances are we have built a similar website or worked with another business in your same field. But more importantly, having done something similar before is not an accurate measurement of expertise. Proper website design is formulaic at its core, so even if we have not built a website for your profession before, it in no way diminishes our ability to do so.

Yes, we do offer hosting with very fast servers. Our hosting package also includes website updates and added security so we can handle your website design project from start to finish.

Typically, TSM handles most of the design process with your initial input. We ask all our website design clients to send us up to two different websites they like the design of as a guide. Some clients choose to be more or less involved in the design process. Photos for your website can be yours of from the HD stock photo library we give you access to as a TSM client.

Most websites are completed within a few weeks. However, how quickly you respond to emails, send content, etc. as well as TSM’s current client workload will affect the time it takes to complete a website. We always strive to provide the best possible product as fast as we can.

The short answer is no. The reason we do not provide fixed pricing on web design is for the benefit of our clients. Almost all website clients decide to change certain details of the project in the middle of the build because they start to get a clearer understanding of what they want, and or they remember something they wanted to add. For that reason, we charge by the minute and only bill our clients for the time spent. Website projects with a fixed budget are bad for the clients and the designer.

No, all the work we do is done in house, in Northern California by real website developers.

There are dozens of reasons to avoid website builders like Elementor, Divi, Squarespace, Wix, Weebly, etc. The first issue is that those websites were never meant for use by professional website developers as they require zero understanding of website development. Those platforms were designed for people who have never built a website before to put something online while they start their business. For that reason, they are inherently slow, bad for your SEO, limited in their functionality, not compatible with a lot of other software and unoriginal in their design. The list of reasons to avoid going down this road are almost endless, unless you need to build a website yourself and have no prior coding experience.
