Inexpensive web site? Prepare

Web sites come in all sizes and complexities.  While we do build sites the toughest question we are asked is "how much?"  We have made sites for as little as $50 but YOU have to prepare.  Colors is free.  Lots of graphics are free.   What takes the most time it design and creating the copy.  If you know what you want it to say you save a lot of time.  If you do your research to find sites you like, you save design time.  If you know what you want your site to do (inform, sell, simple presence, download resource, etc.,) We can do all things more quickly.
