I require a deposit in hand before I start design work on your site.

Payment in full for a new website is due prior to launch of the website. If a website is not launched 60 days after your deposit is received, I will bill you for all work accomplished to date. Subsequent work will be billed every month until launch.

Payments may be made via check or money order; I do not accept credit/debit cards.

Changes you ask me to make to the design after you have approved the initial design will be billable.

I retain ownership of the implementation of your site design until I am paid in full.

Maintenance work is billed on the first of each month for work accomplished during the prior calendar month. Payment is due within 30 days.

If your payment is not received within 30 days, it will be rebilled on the first of the next month with a late payment fee (1.5% of the outstanding balance with a minimum of $2). If payment in full is not received by the first of the following month, your site will be deactivated until payment in full is received (late payment fees will continue to accrue). Your site will be reactivated with a service charge as soon as payment in full is received. Any future work will only be done with prior payment received.

Checks returned for non-sufficient funds will be rebilled with a $25 service charge plus any late payment fee.

You may assume the maintenance responsibilities of your website at any time after the site is launched. However, I do not provide education for website maintenance. Should you wish for me to maintain your site again after the transfer of reponsibility to you, any work necessary to correct and relaunch your site will be billed at my hourly rate.
