Hi Phil,
Thanks for your question. It really depends on your vendor and the total monthly fee – including the maintenance. A 2-day turnaround on changes is actually quite good. We know many companies have to wait up to 5 days before their provider can even get to their request. We’d love to chat with you more about costs. Maybe we could take a look at your site so we can provide more detail about whether or not a new website would “cost a lot more.” Give us a call at 866-913-9327.

Best, Baytech Marketing Team

What about maintenance and hosting thats wrapped together in one package? Is that worth it? My company pays about 50 percent more each month to get maintenance included with our hosting. We have to submit change requests to them and wait about 5-days for changes to happen, but I imagine a new website would actually cost a lot more!

Hi robpark007.
Glad our little tirade helped you! Getting up-to-speed with a CMS depends on the site functionality that we assemble. A basic website’s CMS probably wouldn’t take more than a coupe hours of training, while a complex site with more custom web applications would require more. But all of Baytech’s web development projects are scoped with training time. So before we turn the site over to you, you’d receive dedicated training from one of our specialists.

Hi web_innovation 21.
Thanks for the comment. You’re absolutely right. There are some excellent open source communities across the web that bring together some great web development minds to create some great websites. And, yes, many of these open source projects offer free modules. However, you’d also find that many of the best components available in the open source community are actually customized solutions that you would need to pay to license. Regarding you question: why pay when you can do it yourself? Well, we don’t have a real good answer. If you feel it’s economically more sound for you to learn how to build a nicely design custom website that offers exceptional functionality, is search engine optimized, built with a solid database architecture, and compatible with different web browsers; then, we wish you all the best. Please do come back and let us know when your project is finished.

Cheers, Baytech Marketing Team

i’ve heard about open source websites that offer what sounds a lot like your advenaced cms. and open source is free. why would i pay for a new site when the pieces are there for free and i could just do it myself.

Thanks for the explanation about CMS. We’re considering a new site design and I’ve heard the term thrown about, but I didn’t quite understand what it meant to my business. Or why I should care. I’m not a very technical person, how long does it take to get up to speed?
