Just a heads up that beginning January 1st 2008, my services and fees will be changing as follows:

Web Design Services:

• Standard fee will increase from $750 to $800
• Secure SSL Form Processing will now be available to everyone at no additional cost
• Hosting is now provided on a private, dedicated server owned by Veda Designs
• VedaCMS, which allows companions to update text, photos and maintain a simple availability calendar has been completely rewritten and unified into one secure location.
• Everything else that was previously included

Hosting Renewal Fees*

• 1 Year Renewal: $120
• 6 Month Renwal: $90 (previously unavailable)
• Month-to-Month: $20 (previously unavailable)

* Existing Veda clients that have paid for the next year of hosting will not need to worry about the new hosting fees until their next renewal term.

My general policy until now has been to have the first working draft of a new website ready within one week from when I’m sent all of the project data. However, because the new baby is more active and mobile now…I’m finding that I have less time for uninterrupted work throughout the day and recent projects are taking about a week longer than they once did.

It’s different than my typical companion designs – but I’m aiming for usability with this site.

I’ve actually been back for a few weeks now – but my schedule has been so hectic with the new baby that I’d forgotten to post a blog entry (must be sleep the sleep deprivation).
