I can save you between $310 & $4860 - see below.

You have choices when it comes to creating YOUR website. 

  1. You can create your own.  My first site took me 3 months to create and then had to constantly keep it updated via HTML programming code – no small feat and very time consuming. 

  2. You can hire one of the large impersonal website creating firms to create your site for you – this can be impersonal and frustrating when you are trying to deal with a software technician who has NO understanding of the mental health profession.  By the way, some of these firms charge upward of $5,000 for just the creation of your website plus ~$200/month maintenance fees.

  3. Or, you can have Erickson Web Designs create your personal website for YOU - all inclusive. 

  4. Search Engine submission is an additional charge with other hosting firms - included with Erickson Web Designs!

The key to a website is not all the glitz and flash but simplicity of navigation with a pleasing presentation.  If a visitor can’t find the information they want quickly they will move on to another website in seconds.  My designs for you are clean looking and offer visitors quick access to the information they seek.  And at a very reasonable price - starting as low as $40/mo. 

Here are some examples of what other websites offer:

Costs, options and services vary greatly.
(click on the links to see their website offers)

Example 1:

This website is willing to create a website for various health related professionals for a whopping
$4,900 – that is outrageous!!! 

This example is extreme but not uncommon.  Most tend to charge a flat upfront fee of
between $199 and $499 to just create the basic website with about 5-20 pages.  Then they
charge about $75 - $300 per month hosting fee (which basically means keeping it on the
Internet servers and may not necessarily include maintenance).  This expense is excessive for
most practioners and small businesses.  You can do better. 

Compared to Erickson Web Designs you save $4,860 the first month!

Example 2: For $150 for “1-2 weeks,” for only 10-pages + $10 for each additional page.  That means if you have
10-pages it would run you
$350/mo - this is $310 more than you pay with me.
Example 3: This church website design service was willing to create a 15-page website for “only $900” with each additional page for $99!  For 18-pages that would run you $1197! - with me you save $860 the first month!
Example 4: This website designer offers the first page for $50 and each additional page for $35.  A 12-page website will cost you $470!  Additionally, this particular outfit even charges for creating links at $3.00 each and a counter for $20.  Your images are another $10/ea, scanning images for you is another $15 minimum. This too is shocking and disgraceful. - Erickson Web Designs is $430 less!
Example 5: 8 pages designed for $2000!  Even if they "waive" the design fee they charge $549.99 setup - still despicable! ... and they only submit to 19 search engines - recently I submitted a customer to 43 search engines - for FREE.
