Web Design in Tampines Estate

A 5-page small-business site takes 2-6 weeks with a responsive client; e-commerce adds 2-4 weeks. The most common delay is not the designer — it's the client's content. Have your text, photos and logo ready before kickoff and you'll cut the timeline roughly in half.

No contract, no portfolio of live sites, registering the domain in their own name, 'free' websites with mandatory monthly fees, 100% payment up front, and guaranteed #1 Google rankings. The domain-ownership trap is the costliest — walking away can mean losing your web address.

A proper quote itemizes: number of pages, responsive/mobile behavior, number of revision rounds (2-3 is standard), CMS setup, basic on-page SEO (titles, metas, sitemap), browser testing, and what happens to hosting and domain after handover. If a quote is one line with one number, ask for the breakdown.

Five that separate pros from dabblers: Can I see 3 live sites you built and still maintain? Who actually does the work — you or subcontractors? Will I own the domain, hosting and code? What's included in the price and what costs extra? What happens if I want changes after launch?

Freelancers charge roughly SGD 50-150/hr; 5-page corporate sites commonly run SGD 2,000-9,000 and e-commerce from SGD 5,000. PSG support can halve the net cost for eligible SMEs using approved vendors and packages.

Eligible SMEs (registered and operating in Singapore, ≥30% local shareholding) choose a pre-approved solution from a listed vendor, apply on Business Grants Portal before paying, and claim up to 50% support after deployment. The vendor and package must both be on the approved list — check before signing anything.
