• Why are you doing this?
Well, I love doing band and artist websites. If I can do them 9-5 for the rest of my life I would, so this is my attempt to
do that. Obviously I need income, so I'll be relying on your hosting orders from this website to help me out with that. The hosting charges don't make me much, but enough for me to devote my time to other musicians and artists who need my services. I say 'other' musicians and artists, because I am also a musician (www.stephborel.com).
• How much is your hosting?
Steph Borel Design Hosting is $14.95/month. In order to be a client of Steph Borel Design and take part in this offer, the hosting is mandatory. If you'd like to keep your own hosting through another company, you may do so, however there will be a one time $375 design fee.
• What is the process in detail?
1- Click HERE, you will be directed to sign up for your hosting account and enter details about your art/music and get some input from you as far as design goes.
2- Once you've completed sign up, you will recieve your hosting information, your file wil be created, and you will be contacted when your website is going to be worked on.
Then your website will begin the design process.
The first step of the design process, after gathering your information and suggestions, is to create a rough draft.
I will then send you a link to this rough draft and you will respond with your likes and dislikes of the design along
with what you would like changed. I will make those changes you suggest (if any) and send you a second
rough draft. At this point, the design should be perfect. In order to avoid taking time away from other designs,
any changes after the 2nd rough draft will incur charges ($10/hour)
At this point your site is complete, and I will then send you an email with instructions about how to update your website.
I will NOT just hand you a website and say 'have a nice day'.
I am and will be your webmaster, and you are always welcome to email me with questions or submit a trouble ticket through your billing control panel!
Updates done by me will either be free or $10/hour depending on the complicity of the change/update.
• I already have hosting, but I want in, what can we do?
Unfortunately at this time, I am only accepting design clients that use my hosting. You can cancel your existing hosting and sign up or pay $125 for me to design your site.
• Do you do flash sites for free?
No. Because of the time it takes to create a flash website, I do not offer this design work for free. If you'd like a flash site done, please
visit my freelance website design site at www.stephboreldesign.com
• Can I see some of your work before accepting design work for free?
Sure. http://stephboreldesign.com.
You can also look to your right, and I'll update with new designs periodically to give some props to the artists I've worked with, who are VERY talented.
• Am I going to sign up for hosting and then be ditched when it comes to a website design?
NO. Please understand that there are other people signing up for this project as well. I will do my best to make sure everyone is
tended to promptly, but patience is virtue. My office phone is always turned on, and you can always give me a call if something is
horribly wrong and you cannot wait for a returned email. The best thing to do is sign up immediately to get your file completed.
• What is your web design background?
I've been doing freelance website design for 7 years and counting. I attended Summit College in California and
received my certificate in web design and desktop layout. I do web design because I'm pretty much a computer nerd,
and I this is what I love to do. I do this full time, unlike alot of other designers that still have a conventional 9-5.
• Once my site is done, how will it be updated?
After your site is completed, you will receive an email from me with instructions on how to update and operate your website, which can be found in the knowledgebase at www.stephboreldesign.com/billing. For the most part, if there is an area of your website that I can make accessible for you to make changes to, i will definitly do that. The calendars, news,
music mp3's, and pictures pages will be some of the things you will have the ability to change/add on your own. If at anytime you DO need
me to help you update your site, you are welcome to submit a trouble ticket via your hosting billing account. If you're update is simple and takes a couple
seconds to do, you will not be charged. If it takes some time and rework it will be $10/hour.
• I've signed up and ordered hosting, now what?
We will receive your information, create your file, and email to you as soon as we begin the design process of your website. |
