This post is to inform you of our new policies. Some will be going into effect immediately while others will take effect at a later date.
There will now be a late fee policy in effect. In order to keep the business relationship in a state of “fairness” we can no longer continue to work and run websites without payment or payment being late.
We are also introducing several different packages for our webhosting/webservices. We believe that meeting the needs of our business partners should always be put first and understand that one offering may not satisfy everyone’s individual needs.
That being said we are now offering several different services to increase usability and to increase web traffic to each site. We believe offering a variety of webhosting packages and services will allow each business/individual the choice to choose what is best for their business purposes.
We always strive to keep our pricing and our services fair we hope that we continue to partner in an endeavor for mutual success.
Late fee policy [In Effect Immediately]
- There will be a $5/day late fee up to a maximum up $35.

One of the most frequently asked questions about coding hours, is what are those and what qualifies for “coding”. These hours are to satisfy any of your needs. We DO NOT qualify site fixes as coding hours. If there is an issue with a site, from our original design we will fix it free of charge. We do consider any updates to the site, add-ons or even having us post on your blog/update pictures/update store items/sales prices as coding hours.
If you do have complimentary coding hours we will use those first however if you do not have complimentary coding hours you will be quoted an estimated cost and expected to pay a 50% deposit before coding work begins. We will screen record all of our work and post in your respective drive folder so that you are aware of the time/work that was done. Please note that our developers at times will need to research into issues, this will be counted towards coding time.
Your end price will be adjusted to the amount of work that was done. If we finish under the estimated quote you will pay the lesser. You WILL NOT ever pay anything higher than the estimated quote.
