Unlike most other design companies, we allow freedom of choice. We are honest and upfront about our pricing structure. Nothing you don't want or need is forced upon you. You'll have a clear understanding of the cost before the project begins and no surprises when you receive the final invoice.
Design Costs
Web Design Packages
We consider a website an investment. If you have an office or retail shop - the cost of a website is very insignificant considering the return on investment. One lead and sale for many organizations can pay for the entire web investment.
Out there in the marketplace, a typical Corporate Brochure website can start from as little as ranges from $1500 and range up to $5000, depending on the number of pages you require, custom functionality and focus on creativity.
At TooSisters Design, we offer you a number of comprehensive website packages - all under $3000.
Our typical "Corporate Brochure Website" consists of anywhere between 5-10 informative web pages.
See our Web Design page for information about what’s included in our Web Design.

Ad Hoc Pricing
If you'd rather not be tied to a fixed price contract, then we can, of course, offer you work at our hourly rate. We charge the following hourly rates:
- Graphic Design (i.e. banners, buttons, look and feel) - $60 AU/hour
- Copywriting (i.e. web page content, advertisements, brochures) - $40AU/hour
- Software Development (i.e. XTML coding, FLASH integration, shopping cart) - $120/hour
- Meetings - no charge!
Of course, we have no hourly minimum. If your job takes 1/2 hour, then that's what we charge. And you are welcome to inspect our timesheets and billing records at any time.
But wait! There's more...
If NONE of these options appeal, we are happy to sit down and work out a mutually agreed upon fixed price package with you. Just ask.
We offer other design services too. While we quote on an hourly basis (see below for details), we are more than happy to come to a fixed price arrangement with you.
Blogs
We offer a simple custom blogging solution that takes on the look and feel of your website with custom configuring - we start right around $1200 or less.
Prices starting at $1200.
Ads
Typically costed at $60/hr. Depending on the complexity of the coding and effects required, some ads may take as little as 2 hours, some more. We have no minimum hourly rate - we bill in 1/4 increments.
Logos
Costed at $60/hr. Some simple logos can take only 1-3 hours to produce. Associated branding (letterhead, flyers etc.) can be included in an agreed upon fixed price arrangement. We can also freshen up your existing logo for less than you think!
Branding
We can take your existing logo and create letterheads, flyers, envelopes and other marketing material such as posters. Costed at $65/hr, we are more than willing to come to a fixed price arrangement.
Web Site Maintenance
If you are tired of uploading your content, or checking links and repairing them – we can do all that for you. And if you don't want to hire a webmaster at $50k+ a year - then look no further.
We can:
- add, remove, or change text
- add articles, reports, ebooks or links to existing pages
- add logos, photographs, or images
- check your search engine optimization and resubmit your site if necessary and repair any substandard coding.
Please note: Maintenance services apply to changes to your existing design. Maintenance does not apply to redesigning an entire page or site.
Fixed Price Maintenance Packages
If your site will require frequent updates, save money with our Fixed-Rate Maintenance plans. This includes updating of graphics, text and code, etc. These plans all require a pre-paid contract or are payable in advance at the beginning of the month or quarter.
Note: All pre-paid plans have a rollover feature, and monthly invoicing. For example, if you've paid for 2 hours of maintenance in a calendar month and haven't used it - we'll carry the unused portion over to the next month.
Bronze Plan
Up to 2 hours of support and/or website updates per month. $1300/year if paid upfront (you save $540). $150 per month if paid at the beginning of the calendar month.
Silver Plan
Up to 5 hours of support and/or website updates per month. $3300/year if paid upfront (you save $1500). $350/month if paid at the beginning of the calendar month.
Gold Plan
Up to 10 hours of support and/or website updates per month. $5000/year if paid upfront (you save $4600). $600/month if paid at the beginning of the calendar month.
More than 10 hours/month? Email us for a quote.
Pay-As-You-Go
If you won’t have a lot of updates, then perhaps Pay-As-You-Go Maintenance will suit. Most updates are completed within 48 hours and often within the same day. Larger updates take slightly longer but we will give you a completion date after we receive the changes you want made.
We don't require any contracts and we don't require a one-hour minimum. Pay-as-you-go maintenance is billed at an hourly rate of $80 in 15 minute increments. You are billed in real time, so if it only takes us 15 minutes to make your changes, you are only charged for 15 minutes of time. If a project takes 15 minutes or less then the cost would be $20; between 15-30 minutes would cost $40; 30-45 minutes = $60, and a full hour $80.
You can inspect our timesheets at any time, and ask for a current invoice amount whenever you like.
We can:
- add, remove, or change text
- add articles, reports, ebooks or links to existing pages
- add logos, photographs, or images
Priced at $80/hour. Contact us to inquire about ad- hoc maintenance.
