Late Fees

Cancellation / Reactivation Fees

Should the payment for Smart Sites or web hosting become 30 (thirty) calendar days past due, service will be cancelled until the outstanding invoice (along with the 10% late fee is paid). There is also a $150 website reactivation fee to resume service.

Prepaid Time

Any unused prepaid time expires six (6) months from the date of purchase. This only effects prepaid time that is purchased in 2019.

New Website Payment Terms

Fifty percent (50%) of the project quote is due to begin the project as well the full cost of any plugins, software, etc. that is needed to complete the project. The remaining project balance is due at least one (1) business day prior to the launch date of the site.

Delivery Time For Sample Website Design

The sample design for new websites will be ready five in (5) business days from when all required items are given to us. The first business day starts the day after all required information is received. The sample design will consist of the Home page and one inside page.

Delivery Time For Graphic Design

Delivery Time For Edits & Quote Requests

Most website edits and quote requests can be completed within three (3) business days from when all required items / information is provided to us. Please note that long and complex requests may take longer than 3 business days to complete.  Should this be the case we will promptly provide you with an expected completion date.

Project Quotes & Contracts

Project quotes/contracts are valid for thirty (30) calendar days from the day we send it. After that we will need to reevaluate the project specifications to ensure that the project scope has not changed.  If the project scope has changed a new quote will be provided.

Project Contracts

Project contracts are required for all new website projects. The project contract must be signed and returned (digitally) with first payment and any files or server access needed in order to begin. If any of things have not been received, we cannot start the project.

Inactive Projects

If a project sits idle for more than thirty (30 calendar) days it will be considered inactive. 50% of the remaining balance is required to reactivate the project and resume work.

Scheduling Website Launch

We are available to launch websites most Monday-Thursdays. Advanced notice of at least three (3) full business days must be given to schedule a website going live. Anything less than (3) business days will incur a rush fee of 20% of the project total.

Design Revisions

Clients can request three (3) rounds of design revisions be made to the sample design of their website. Each email with website changes is considered a "round of revisions"  To get the most out of a round of revisions, please have your client put together a single email that consists of all edits that they would like to see made during that particular round of revisions.

Post Launch Updates

After a website launches any new website edits will be considered NEW work and billed accordingly. There are a two exceptions to this policy:

  1. If an error is found that was made on our end we will rectify it asap at no additional charge.
  2. If there is a project spec / update that we agreed to take care of post launch, we will complete that update at no additional charge.

The standard fee for this is a flat rate of $275. However, in situations that require above-average troubleshooting, extra steps, etc.--all time will be billed at our standard hourly rate. This will be determined on a project-by-project basis.
