I think you pretty much get what you pay for for site design. You can hire a bunch of people on the cheap, but it won’t look as good as someone who is more expensive…

Also, it depends on what you want exactly, like do you have everything you want in mind and would you supply the person with the pictures and stuff? Or would you just have general ideas that you wanted the designer to work with? That kind of stuff could effect the rate too I would guess

That being said, I have no idea what the going rates for website design are these days… sorry haha
