DIY Package | $75
Do you like to create graphics yourself? Already have a header you love? Just need help putting it on a website or new blog theme? Then this package is for you. I will install your website or blog on wordpress and install your graphics. I do not re-size them or change any colors/fonts. You must have all graphics already prepared. I install header, background, blog button, social media buttons, post divider, favicon, post signature & if necessary change theme colors to match (links, navigation, etc). If you did not create the graphics I will need the name & url of the designer who did and I will personally contact them to make sure they allow the use of the graphics by another designer.
Blog Transfer | $80
(unless it is part of a design package)
This is a transfer of blog content & install of wordpress on your self-hosted server. I can transfer blogger.com blogs & wordpress.com blogs. If you need to purchase hosting please let me know when you order this package. I give a discount on the package price if you purchase through my affiliate link to bluehost.
Site Maintenance Subscription | $35 per month
After your package is installed you might find that you would like a plugin installed or a navigation item changed. You might need a portfolio page set up or product plugin installed. Need a party graphic or a new ad button? For a $35 per month recurring subscription my design & coding services will be ‘on-call’ for you (during normal business hours-found here). This $35 charge is equal to one hour of work & it does not transfer month to month. If you don’t need my services that month the fee still stands as this is a retainer. Anything beyond this hour will be billed at $35 per hour with a half-hour minimum required. Know you want me ‘on-call’ every month long term? Then choose the year long subscription for a $20 discount.
Limited slots available so cancellations of monthly & yearly subscriptions require a 30 day notice. NO refunds given for monthly subscriptions-even if no work has been done-no exceptions. Refunds of months (not yet reached in the calendar year) on yearly subscriptions will be given with a $50 cancellation fee taken from remaining balance. i.e. If you purchase a yearly subscription in January and decide to cancel it in June you will receive a refund on July-December with $50 deducted.
