Marco’s Online Catalogue Website Proposal
Domain: Pending
Website Development
In this proposal, you’ll find specific details of how we can create a website that achieves your goals as per the brief supplied.
Our breakdown is based on all content (such as wording for the various sections) and beautiful high res images being supplied by yourself. Should you require a photographer for images (original images are always better than stock images) this can be arranged at an additional fee.
Copywriting services have can be included, for the copy used on the website. Or you will need to supply the copy required.
We have the pleasure of detailing what we have researched and the options we propose below:
Project Requirements
The site will work exactly how you have stipulated. Each product will have a contact/enquiry form linked to it, from where the user can submit their request. The site will also have an introduction to the business, navigation icons linking to your general contact options and a rolling list of “featured items”. We will be sure to create the site in a modern and attractive style to give it that extra “edge”. Please note that a CSV excel spreadsheet (for larger amounts - lesser amounts, a template will need to be filled out for each item) will need to be completed by yourself with reference to stock items, descriptions etc. Our fee is based on 50 items. Should you require more items to be loaded on the initial development, please advise.
WEBSITE CONTENT INSERTION
We will add the website content as supplied by you or via our copywriter.
IMAGE SOURCING
Source generic images to enhance the goals of the website and appeal to the target audience. Any specific image requirements may incur additional fees or must be supplied by yourself (e.g. images of specific products/food items etc). All 'shop' items will need to be provided by yourself.
RESPONSIVENESS
We will make sure that the website looks good at all common screen sizes. Each view may not be identical but will be tweaked to enhance the appearance of the website from that viewpoint.
SPEED OPTIMISATION
We will ensure that the website is developed for optimal speed and loading time, this includes the optimisation of all supplied images and graphics.
SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMISATION
We will make sure that your website conforms to all SEO standards and provide basic initial on-page SEO.
ANALYTICS AND VERIFICATIONS
We will connect the site to google analytics and add any other required verifications on launch. Please note that any verifications other than google analytics need to be supplied before launch. Verifications after launch may incur additional fees.
DEVELOPMENT TWEAKS FOR 30 DAYS FROM SIGN – OFF
We will continue to provide support, updates and tweaks to the website for up to 30 days post-launch.

This proposal doesn’t serve as a binding contract between us. Once the initial invoice has been paid and the contract has been signed, elements must be sent no later than one week before the scheduled start date. This is to make sure that the project goes as smoothly as possible. All communication during the project will take place via email. It is incredibly important that the project moves along smoothly, so please be prepared to respond and supply feedback in a timely manner. If we encounter communication dilemas, the project is subject to be terminated without refund.
