Hello,
We are a webhosting company looking for a professional design. Our site is located at http://www.hitspot.net and we are ready to upgrade to a clean, professional look (no comments, please, on the current design, as I did it myself in Notepad, LOL).
Things we are looking for:
- A complete solution, including a better structure that allows the most intuitive navigation
- An eye-catching but simple and fast-loading Flash logo on the index page, but no other Flash anywhere else (a static logo for interior pages)
- A design that is accessible in most browsers (IE 4.0 and up, Netscape 5.0 and up, Opera 5.0 and up)
One site we like very much is http://hostevolve.com/ - the logo is very nice, and the page is very clean and accessible. We also like the domain search bar.
Another site that has a nice look is http://www.fastwebsites.com/ - but it is a bit more visually cluttered than we would prefer.
We of course are not interested in copying these sites, and want a new and original look, just provided the above to give you some idea of the direction we would like to go.
As we have many products - personal hosting, reseller hosting, dedicated servers, and domain registration - we want to make sure that each product is featured somehow but not to the extent that it is overwhelming.
Our finances are limited, as we are a small company as of now, but we are going to stretch our budget for a design that will help us go forward in our business. Right now we are thinking of a budget of $600-$800, but will consider all offers.
I would appreciate any recommendations as well as price qoutes from some designers. For any offer, please provide a qoute for both just designing the main page as well as up to 10 pages (or more if willing).
Thanks,
David Kiley
