Article introduction of Wulin.com (www.vevb.com): Many customers ask me why formal website design costs at least 2,000 yuan, and some are even tens of thousands. However, many website service providers offer very cheap prices, more than 1,000 yuan, or even a few hundred yuan. Why does an industry have such a huge quotation? Where is the cheaper one? First of all, the website functions are different, the price is definitely different, the price of complex ones is naturally high, and the simple ones are naturally low.
Many customers ask me why formal website design costs at least 2,000 yuan, and some are even tens of thousands of yuan, but many website service providers offer very cheap prices, more than 1,000 yuan, or even a few hundred yuan. Why does an industry have such a huge quotation? Where is the cheaper one?
First of all, the price of the website is definitely different with different functions. The price of complex ones is naturally high, and the price of simple ones is naturally low.
Then why are websites with the same complexity of functions so cheap? Where is it cheap?
1. Use common templates when cheap. Spend a day of working hours to find some website templates in the same industry, modify some pictures, or even just change the name and address and deliver the goods. You will definitely feel that it is cheap and worth it. Until one day you find another website on the website that is very similar to your website, you will not know where the cheapness is.
2. Cheap is not available without survey planning. Professional website design begins based on survey planning. Only by understanding the customer's industry, customer groups, and competitors can you plan the website in a targeted manner, reflecting the industry characteristics, catering to customer groups, and distinguishing it from competitors. You should not expect such a process for cheap websites.
3. Use cheap domain name spaces when you hear that domain name spaces are free, you will definitely feel that they are very worthwhile. Not to mention whether the stability and speed of such domain name spaces will cause interference, confusion and impatient for your customers to browse. When you are notified by the service provider the next year that the space domain name needs to be renewed, you will know that free lunch is not long-lasting. As for how much it costs, God knows if it is a sky-high price. If you don’t give it to, you won’t be able to pay it back then. If you don’t give it to your website, you will be closed.
4. The cheaper is at the level of employee design. The salary of hiring a worker who can use web editing software is different from the salary of hiring a designer. Just like using a knife, the salary of doctors and butchers is different. Similarly, software is just a tool, and knowing how to use software does not mean that you have some professional qualifications!
5. Cheap at the programming level, with the same principle as above, a good programmer can ensure the operation speed and stability of the website program, and also ensure the security of commercial secrets such as customer information and product prices.
6. Cheap is not designed in a targeted manner. The promotion methods of websites in different industries and companies will be different. The website needs to cooperate to solve some daily customer problems. For example, if you are a certain mechanical agent sales company, then providing convenient maintenance and query functions on the Internet will be very beneficial to customers. Cheap websites generally have four major modules: homepage, introduction, product, and contact.
7. Cheap keywords are not set for search engines. Cheap websites will not help you set search keywords. You will even find that your website keywords are the name of other people's company's website templates (the result of using other people's company website templates). As for the alternative keywords for pictures, it is even more vague. For such websites, don't expect to be earned by free search engines.
8. Cheap is not considered for compatibility. Don’t expect cheap websites to conduct compatibility tests on the website. IE browser can be opened. As for browsing with Netscape and FireFox browsers, which account for most of the usage of foreign customers, whether the web pages are broken or misplaced or deformed is your own business.
9. Cheap without good after-sales service. In order to save more costs, a cheap website will not have good after-sales service, or even no at all. They will not provide tracking services for your website marketing and provide timely professional advice. Professional websites often provide customers with professional technical guidance to help companies effectively utilize the website.
10. Cheap in other details, and these details may bring big or small losses to your website, such as image, efficiency, security, and sales reduction.
In short, cheap websites cannot be really cheap. No one will do a loss-making business. It saves the final compression of the website, and the ultimate loss is the company itself. What is really cost-effective should be those companies that give reasonable profits to the website service providers and let them manage their websites seriously.
Writing this article may have hurt the vital interests of some peers, but I am sorry, I think this darkness is really not conducive to the healthy development of an industry. I have always advocated reasonable profits, honest operation, and fair competition, so as to create a healthy development industry environment. I also believe that many confident and capable peers will agree with my point of view.
