I was asked by a potential client that how much I charge for a 5 pages web design ? I told him that our package price is RM 1,300 for 5 pages, not including web hosting and domain registration. He was shocked and said that my package is one of the most expensive web design package among several comparison he did.
Although I explain to him that the website is tailor made and not made by template, he still complained that the price is too expensive. Eventually he get any provider to do web design for him
Well, it is ok for me. It is no end for price war and eventually all providers will lose, except the consumers. Just like you cannot compare the BMW with Proton Saga, although both are "car" , but the features and quality are greatly different.
We just recently closed a web design deal amount RM 30k above for a well-known company in Malaysia. They never think our price is expensive. In fact, they said our price is moderate among the quotations he got.
So what I am trying to point out here is it depands what customer group you want to target. For an established company like us, it is silly to compete with the low-end web design company for low price package. If the customer want low-end web design, just introduce him to your web design's friend or your "friendly competitors", maybe one day your friend or your "friendly competitors" will introduce customers to you which they cannot handle. who knows ? :)
