I haven't build a website before and don't know where to begin.

That is fine. We will work together to define what you would like your site to look like and convey. We can do this via email and the phone very effectively.

How long does it usually take to build a website?

That depends on a few variables:
a .Whether you have a clear vision
b. Whether you have your materials collected and ready to give to me
c. How large the site is
d. How much flash you want built
e. How many galleries will be on the site
f. Whether you will have a shopping cart or forms

Is there an average cost for sites?

No, not really, since all costs are based on the above variables.

I just want a small, biographical site with about three pages and just text and some photos. How much will that cost?

For something like that, if you have all the materials (photos and content) ready to go, I can usually charge between $500-750.

Are you available now to build a site?

Usually I am working a few weeks out at a time, but if your project is small and easy, I may be able to start on it right away.
