Project Timeline

Information Collection – 1 to 2 weeks

During the first week or two, we will collect the necessary information to begin the site, including, but not limited to, admin access for domain name and hosting accounts, website copy, images, customer testimonials, color scheme selections, and a high definition company logo.

Development – 1 to 3 weeks

Once Information is collected, we will head into development. After completion, we will proceed into receiving approvals from the client.  Once the website design is approved, we will test for proper functionality.

Estimated Project Time:  2 to 5 weeks

Fees and Billing Procedure

Prices are quoted in U.S. funds, unless specified otherwise.  A $225 deposit is due upon approval of this agreement unless otherwise agreed upon.  Ongoing work-in-progress fees (i.e., updates that were not included in the quote) will be billed at the end of each monthly period during the course of the project.  In the event of project cancellation, fees incurred to date will be billed.  Late payments may incur a late fee.  Invoices are due upon receipt.

Except for monthly management payments, all payments will be made by check or PayPros Merchant Services (invoiced electronically).  It is imperative that Clients stay on track and communicate with AmeriWeb LLC.  Clients must be aware that any delays on their side may constitute a late fee.  If you need to put a project on hold, please notify us immediately so we can make the appropriate accommodations.  If, at any time, a Client is non-responsive for one month, the project will be considered complete and Client will be invoiced for the work completed.

The Standard Website Management Package at $35/month is a requirement to keep the site live.  Clients will be billed monthly by a credit card held on file in our secure PayPros RecurPay system.  Once entered directly into RecurPay, AmeriWeb LLC staff cannot view or obtain credit card numbers.

Revisions and Updates

Website development packages include one design revision, if not specified differently.  Logos and other graphic design projects include one revision during development.  Any changes to the Specifications, Scope, Design, Development or anything that was not clearly mentioned before the project starts is outside the scope of this project, and may constitute a “Change Order.”

The development period ends on the final website approval date and any additional changes will be considered updates.  Excluding what’s defined in the selected Monthly Website Management package, additional revisions will be billed at the “add-ons” rates above.  For other tasks, the hourly rate is $30, except for $65 for advanced coding tasks.

Domain Name Ownership

If Firm purchases the domain name for a Client’s website, Firm is the sole owner of the domain name until Client requests to purchase and transfer the domain name from Firm, at which time, Firm has the option to sell the domain name, at fair market value plus the cost to transfer (if any), to Client. Clients have the option to purchase the domain name on their own before Firm makes the purchase, if desired.  The Website Management Package fee remains the same, no matter which party purchases and owns the domain name.

Client Deliverables

All Client-supplied website content (text, images, data, video, etc.) will be provided to AmeriWeb LLC in digital format and in a timely manner, unless otherwise agreed upon.

Warranty

AmeriWeb LLC will warranty all work for a period of 30 days after project completion (i.e., site launch). The warranty fulfillment is specific to bug fixes or programming errors only and is separate and distinct from maintenance fees.  AmeriWeb LLC is not responsible for bugs caused by a third-party coder or by third-party plug-ins; only for faults of our own.

Agreement

This proposal may be accepted by verbal or written approval of the quote (e.g., by email) or by transferring part or the entire amount of the quoted charge.

If you have any questions about this quote, please feel free to contact us at any time per email or phone.  We are looking forward to working with you on this project.
