Plans and Pricing
There are 5 plans to help you get your site up and running and keep it maintained. We can work together to figure out which plan works best for your particular situation.
Some artists like the feeling of accomplishment they get from doing much of the website work on their own.
Some artists know they can do the website work, and so they will, because it is cost-effective.
Some artists prefer to spend as much time as possible making art and would rather let someone else take care of the technical website details.
Whether you prefer to do it all on your own or spend as little time as possible setting up and maintaining your site, I can help you.
The DIY
You open a Squarespace account, obtain or transfer a website domain, install the Artist Portfolio template, upload your images and text, modify the template pages, and arrange the galleries to your liking.
with help from over 2 hours of step-by-step instructional videos broken down into bite-size, manageable sections you can view and review as you go along.
Once you’ve got the hang of adding artwork to your galleries, maintaining them is easy.
And if you’re really into web design, you can use the template as a starting point and go from there. Squarespace has myriad design features and functionalities that you can use to enhance your site once it is up and running.
I’m always available at my hourly rate if you change your mind or run out of time and would prefer that I assist with the setup and/or maintenance.
