Could you make a video where you showcase a 10k website? Show the scope of such a project, the business value it creates, the problems it fixes and also deep dive into the technical aspects like how its built? Just a request, would be cool to see in order to understand just what it takes.

The thing is that most people misunderstood websites, they think it's a wall with clickable pictures... And no, that's a making money tool, a marketing pitch! Big clients know that, that's why they look for Ux design. Web designers have to align themselves and start thinking of themselves as people who grown business instead of creating buttons.

This exact video demonstrates exactly why I've been moving away from upwork as a tool to encounter clients. They want a website more often than not when I want to build a business tool.

Great video. The more I watch your videos the more I realize it's all about how my (limiting) mindset got me stuck in the lower priced website category instead of the higher one. Thanks for this insight!

I actually enjoy what this man has to say. It’s relevant to what I’m interested in. Furthermore, I can tell he has speaking from experience. Keep up the good work !

Thanks for sharing ☺️. In my opinion it's, Websites vs Web Applications. Costly could also means custom branding, good server, scalability, site security, integrations, or some custom functionality. A business could start cheap but they will soon realise cheap is not what differentiate them from their competitors and at some point they need to upgrade.

I love this, I had a bit of a taste of everything throughout my career, and at the start, I was discouraged because I studied to be a 3D animator and ended up in a sales job because I was simply not getting paid to be a 3D animator or to do the extensive hours at a peanut salary. At that time, I could get paid more to work an 8 - 5 job as a sales consultant without any education than I could with being a qualified 3D animator with work experience. But holy camoly! I can't even begin to explain how grateful I am right now for the place that it has led me to. I love figuring out problems, got into web design and development and then ended up starting my own business! Everything that I learned from being a sales consultant straight through to being an IT service coordinator has truly helped me develop solutions that help businesses grow instead of just having a fancy website that adds no value to a client's business. People always want to add fancy, none essential things to their site, which is okay, but the question is. Does it add value, or does it just look pretty?

Only just found your channel but I can't believe this content is free. It's something I'd expect to pay for. Thanks for doing this!

When I graduated from design school my degree was call Visual Communications. Design can be simple or complex, but it's what you are communicating that is important.

Exacly! This video is just on point! A few days ago I sold a website for 800€ without any work done before to show or testimonials. I called the client, sat down to talk and we talked for like 2 hours about his business how he wants it to be in the feature and how my solution will help him achieve his goals. Boom!

Amazing explanation! Altough i think that these people offering cheap web design are damaging the industry and making it harder for us to close a sale.

Great video!! I'm definitely subscribing and checking out more of your videos.

Great video Rob! As always.

Great way of explaining the difference old school with the board! thanks

Explained so simply! Incredibly useful for me - THANK YOU

Supper bro ...I ❤️ u bro really I stucked in web design business ...you push my mind to run it again like a bullet train 🎉🔥

Your content in evergreen Rob!🔥 It has helped me a lot💯

Like if you learned a lot from him 😂

Thank you a lot for this video. This is very interesting and informative. Keep posting like those amazing videos, this is awesome.

$100 website = Aesthetics $10,000 website = Aesthetics, form, and function Amazing lesson (as always)!

Very insightful lesson. Could you do a video on what features I should be adding / learning so I can create 10k websites? I know there's stuff like SEO, but thats about all I know. You dont have to teach it all, but laying out which things there are will tell me what I should look up in google. Thanks for the great content. Your channel is great!

Very professional and simple💪 Good job

I loved it. Thanks for sharing this eye openner.

Brilliant video mate. Thank you!

It's actually great sales training! Thanks

Thanks for the video Rob! Such a big help.

great video! Great comparison between low value/high value websites!

Thank you!!! This was very helpful.

Great and much needed perspective. I’d like to add that at $10k good design is expected and therefore not a priority item of discussion. Business objectives are the priority like he says. At this price point client will only notice design when it’s bad, but rarely will they applaud your great typography, use of white space and careful use of clever interactions. Those things are expected just like in their $100k limited edition automobile parked upfront. The client is trying to solve a $1M problem and this 10k website is an integral part of the overall strategy, as it takes care of the two lists mentioned here on the board.

Very helpful information here, thanks.

Awesome content! keep up the great work.

Great vid as always Rob, agree that this bigger picture 'problem solver'/business improver approach will bring in the bigger clients than a 'web designer'. Thinking about your £10k projects, do you market your services to them as 'Fox Web School' and leverage the authority in the subject that commands, or do you sell your web services as another business/or as 'Rob O'Rourke' the individual? Thanks

Really really awesome and useful video love it

This is great. But what I'd like to see is a video of you designing a website that incorporates all these features that will benefit different businesses. I'm a new web designer, started my business in January, and what I care about is what my design can provide for a business. I want to see them thrive through what I offer, and not even because it would mean more money. I just want the pride that comes with knowing I've been instrumental in driving their business forward.

Incredible info, thank you.

You just got a subscriber with this video, In summary, I think you are trying to communicate how user interface and user experience are important

Focus on what it does..brilliant! Videos like this are why I keep coming back to your channel 👍 What are your thoughts on specializing in a particular niche for web design? Have heard some people really recommend it and others think it's not so great as you miss out on more customers. Thanks again

Great video!!!!

So glad ive found this channel. The way you explain things is so easy to follow and i need to thank you for it. Alot of people worry about how the site looks instead of what it can do for you.

Love your videos.

Very valuable video!

Wow man that’s a really cool breakdown

Thank you very much for this video

Simple, wow I was doing wrong all about it! Thanks, Rob

Another gold video Rob. Great Job. Follow up question about this video, "how" and "where" do I find these $10,000 businesses and "how" to pitch them? Thanks

Great video man.

which one is good for resturant

I am haveing a website ( social media ) website built and mine is over the $10,000 range. How can you tell if you're being taken advantage of. Great video

Can tell me the estimate of a site like italki or cambly can cost, thank u for your efforts

Is there any chance that you could point me in the right direction of blue chip web design agencies please? I am needing a high end web sight built with high end functionality in the UK.

Love the information and the video set up. Just try to get a lil more head room in your video but good stuff bro

good stuff

Hello Rob, Firstly thanks a million for your brilliant series on how to sell websites the right way. Thank you for putting the work in for us. I do however have a question that's burning me since a while now. How do you find and identify those clients who are looking for more than just a good looking website, who want an effective sales tool and are willing to invest a higher price into a higher value online sales and marketing tool? Where would we have to look for this type of client?

thank you

I assumed the cheap sites were just throwing up a theme / template pre made. Love this topic, would love more videos

You don't wanna have your site built for that low nor do you want to work with someone who'll pay that little

I’m an aspiring web developer. Can anyone tell me whether or not selling just front end is viable? Or do companies these days expect web designers to implement all the function in the website too?

Many Many Thanks for sharing such an important Thing. #introduction_web_design_q

Hi! Thank you so much for this video. I have a quick question. Is it possible to charge a business owner who you are solving multiple problems (10k range) but you are using softwares like Word Press and Wix to create the website for clients? Or for the 10k range, it has to be a different software with coding included?

this video has open my mind jaja

Hi, thanks for the video, as usual. I have one question though. How did you personally get to the second group? Did you do some networking? Because just writing down these skills in portfolio doesn't do all the work, does it? Thanks a have a great day!

very good.

Thx bruh 🙏

I watched this video and still do not know the difference between a 100 and a 10k website. Maybe if you would have give an example of your point that would have made the video good. Thx for trying

So here's my question. I'm already sorry for any grammatic mistakes but I am learning to create what is trending nowadays like ithose you see when you go to websites like beehance and lapa.ninja. I've also tried using many calculators but they seem to calculate a very huge price like 25K$ which I honestly think is overselling my talent. How much should a person like me charge for such level of design also taking care of the user experience, accessibility, A/B testing and other factors? Would it be at the thousands level or hundreds?

Thanks for the video. Question: What are some examples of problems that you might solve for a business that a $100 website cannot deliver?

At first didn't catch the lilt of your countrymen. But then I heard it... and subscribed.

Do I have to know coding to make 10 thausand $ website

I love your content, I am a student and want to do web design part-time. How many hours on average does a big project (like most of yours) take for you?

Would you provide me website project

make more video pls i have a question. what do you mean ?(what are you looking to solve in your business?) 9:20

Would love if you can answer my question, I got scammed 2 days ago by web for 99 website, he created my website on wordpress and later changed all my admin info after getting paid, now I am at a lost because I contacted wordpress rep and they are telling it will cost me more than a thousand dollars to restore my site. What should I do? Is there another way? Awaits ur response

If you can help a business make money from the website, they'll pay you. You just need to communicate how each part of the site will bring in more revenue. It's an investment for businesses. For example, models want attention(money/sales/revenue). If you're a clothes designer(website designer) and you sell cool clothes for £100 to these models, the price is cheap because all they ask for is cool clothes. However if you can focus on what they want, attention, and explain how you use color psychology to achieve an effect from outsiders that makes you an attention magnet, you could sell that for £1000+. The value of a site is determined by your explanation and understanding of the businesses needs and how you will achieve them. If you can explain the ROI, you can charge higher.

that means 10k website is more about database and the developer doing stuff for them if i get what you are saying

Summary of the video: The cheap ("$100") web designs services just focus the website's look and often use a quick theme to make it. The expensive ("10000") websites offer more than just a look, they target bigger businesses, with larger needs, and help them get the tools (or leads) to grow.

So basically in simple terms, the pricing goes down to the income stream problem that the website will be able to solve

feels like this could've been cut down to half the time, most of it felt like hearing "what a website looks like vs what a website does for a business."

Hi Sir Sujeet Kumar this side form GTM Infotech Delhi India

I will developed as reliable price

Idk how i ended up here and what im watching but hi

them: how is it going to be designed? me:html tags

Rob: That's a 100 dollar website Wix: (Let's show him some ads!) Need a professional website? I created one for my startup using Wix. Me: Oh no.............

you are absolutely right on your every point. But imagine a situation. I am a freelance web designer from Bangladesh. I want to get a client. I am cold emailing companies with a solution to their problem with a budget of $10,000. Will those business owners give a shot to me? They will rather go to an Agency and say we have this this this problem and we need those solutions. And the agency will give them the solution with the 10k budget. What's my benefit here? Or what can I do here? Any idea?

$100 website = selling a product. $10,000 website = selling a service/strategy.

Never heard of a $100 website maybe $500.

The real point is that you are a business consultant more so than just a web designer. To you, the website is not the objective. Its just a tool.

10 q

i can't watch the video, because of the sound of that pen on paper

More like $500 website than $100

This video could be shorter.

100$ website? No way... no one should ever do that!

$100 😂😂😂hell naw my time is worth more than that

No amount of "design" will push your website from $100 to $10k unless you're talking to an ignorant client with a bunch of money to waste. Unless you're a celebrity designer, the website will be the tip of the iceberg of what's expected of you to do to hit the thousands mark. A client who really wants to use your services to boost his business will know what he wants. Everything the guy mentioned is hollow talk that will fizzle out instantly when a client asks the terrifying question "so, what does all this entail concretely? How are you going to accomplish that" and trust me, no amount of vague "we can increase your sales because we're experienced" will work. Wanna charge more? Target bigger clients and flaunt your portfolio (assuming there are big names in it).

Why are you wearing a hat indoors?? WTF.

$100 is front end ...$10,000 is back end basically
