While the above points are not lengthy to search for, they should be helpful. But if you're still not entirely sure, here are some other considerations to keep in mind. We hope these tips help make the process easier!

How does a professional evaluate the price of their services? it is usually based on 2 elements:

1. The time of preparation of your project and how much the professional values ​​that work time

2. Varied costs external to the developer, of third-party services that will be needed for the construction of your website: For example: photographs of image banks, plugins, hosting, domain etc.

What other factors can influence the price of a website made by a developer? .

Define how big your website will be. It is not the same to make a small corporate website to a TripAdvisor-type web application. If the idea for your website is to have several sections with different designs, the designer's work will require more time to be able to develop all the styles of these sections, which will then have to be added through programming.

In addition, the programming of more advanced sites like Airbnb can extend for even months of work and this is development time that a programmer will charge, so the project will be more expensive compared to small developments such as landing pages, portfolios, or Simple corporate sites that typically require little time to build.
