How We Made Web Design Simple
The Challenge
Sometimes all you need is a simple yet professionally looking website for your business. Nothing too fanciful or sophisticated just enough to impress a client, a partner or an investor.
The problem arises when this supposedly “simple” activity becomes a waking nightmare for small business owners or the marketing manager left in-charge.
Suddenly, you find yourself stuck making critical business decisions like:
- how the website layout and design should look
- what the primary colour scheme of the site will be
- what sort of brand message to include
- which key functions does the website require
- how often will you be updating the website content
- and an entire list of questions you've never even knew existed
That's the point where many businesses give up on their online branding endeavour.
Depending on the scope of work involved, most web designers usually charge on a per web page basis. which includes the web content layout
This can be anywhere between $150-350 per page for a freelancer or $500 and above per page for a design agency.
For a fully custom design project, you can expect to invest at least $2,000 on the website design component alone.
Typically, most web copywriters will charge a per word or a per page rate. More experienced writers may charge a standard flat fee for the entire project.
However, what is more important is the location and the English-proficiency of the writer. A lower grade writer tend to produce content which are illegible or riddled with grammatical and spelling mistakes.
A decent investment amount on your writer is usually between $50-80 per page.
Unlike the design or content component, the rates of web development varies widely with the complexity of the project.
Building a simple HTML versus building a robust content management system will also influence the overall cost of the website.
In most cases, you should expect to invest around $500 for a simpler function right up to $3000 and higher for complex features like shopping carts.
It's either they find themselves stuck in the project for months or they end up paying way more than they had originally budgeted for.
The Objective
After working with many business owners, we found 3 common web challenges many of them constantly struggle with. Namely, the design, the description, and the development components.
Our goal thus was to find a solution providing serious business owners with a simpler way to get a beautiful business website up, fast and almost hassle-free.
That meant imposing several tight restrictions on our development team and their proposed solution.
After all, it has to be easy yet versatile enough for the majority of non-tech companies adopting our web development service.
Restriction #1: Speed of Deployment
At the end of the day, time is money in the business world. This means the website solution needs a quick deploy option so your business is up and running in as little as a week.
Restriction #2: Ease of Usage
Many websites drag on for weeks, even months because of the lack of content and design options. Instead, by selecting our design template and a writing style, your website is almost good-to-go.
Restriction #3: Adding of Content
Just because the website is up doesn't mean it has to be static. Business owners should have the liberty and ability to update, change or add new content to the site whenever they're ready.

After much trial and error, our development team at Yellow Pages is proud to present our proprietary Rapid Deploy Technology. This technology uses a series of custom developed scripts and codes to quickly build a professional 3-page business website for our clients.
