Does anyone have any web designers they’ve used before who are at the no-budget individual person startup level of cost?
The design is not for the Anvil app, but for a Bootstrap based static site that goes along with it. I’m horrible at design, so literally cannot do this myself. My quotes from various folks so far have ranged anywhere from $1,500 to $6,000.
Those were from people making a living at design, so I guess I’m looking for a talented hobbyist? Or is that just wishful thinking?
There are several schemes (in the UK at least) aimed at people returning to work in the tech field after a break in their career for whatever reason. They are always looking for opportunities for their delegates to get their first paid work on the cv.
That particular one is very cool, but looks very high powered, well above what I need (and likewise out of my price range for sponsorship).
If I have to I’ll go with freelancer sites, but I’ve had bad luck getting anyone reliable on those, so was hoping someone had a personal recommendation.
Good designers are expensive! If you want a site design on a budget, a good option is to buy an off-the-shelf design (frequently referred to as “themes”). A quick google for “Bootstrap theme” yields several places you can grab a design for sub-$100. Switch out images and colour schemes as necessary to match your branding, and voila!
Unfortunately I think I’ll have to settle for the pre-built themes. None match the way I’d like the pages laid out (apparently my design sensibilities are a bit archaic), but without a budget (or a partner who knows Bootstrap/CSS) I’ll have to adapt the site to the themes available.
Hello
Will your site be more content or tools?
My site is a custom app written in Anvil, but not directly Anvil related.
