website and need design and development services or just need a little maintenance
and work done to your existing website, our highly-skilled team can meet or exceed

Here's our policies on all consulting work. Specific items may be negotiated, but you should use this as a baseline to judge how we do things.
- Web Development (PHP/MySQL) Pricing
- Web & Graphics Design Pricing
- Hours, Caps & Overtime
- Ownership of Finished Product
- Future Support for Work
Web Development (PHP/MySQL) Pricing
Our base company rate for Web Development is $70 USD per hour. This value is slightly negotiable, but under all circumstances our lowest rate is $55 USD per hour. The only exception to this rule is non-profit organizations that have achieved their non-profit status and can provide the documentation stating that they are non-profit. Non-profit organizations can get development services from Omega Vortex for as little as $35 USD per hour.
Web & Graphics Design Pricing
Our current company rate for Web & Graphics Design is $60 USD per hour. This value is slightly negotiable, but under all circumstances our lowest rate is $45 USD per hour. The only exception to this rule is non-profit organizations that have achieved their non-profit status and can provide the documentation stating that they are non-profit. Non-profit organizations can get design services from Omega Vortex for as little as $25 USD per hour.
Hours, Caps & Overtime
Omega Vortex operates under an hourly consulting system with a two hour minimum for every project. We may have any number of developers working on your project at one time, because of this we have employed a soft hour cap system that will keep us from working too much, too quickly, which would result in client funds being drained rather quickly. We offer 40 man hours as a soft cap per week with the option to increase the cap, at the client's discretion, for an overtime rate of an additional $5 USD for every 10 hours above the base cap.
Assuming our base rate of $70 USD per hour, hours 41 - 50 would be $75 USD per hour, hours 51 - 60 would be $80 USD per hour, etc. We believe this is a fair system to help compensate our developers and designers for the additional hours worked. Please note that overtime rates are non-negotiable under any and all circumstances.
Our hour cap for maintenance and upkeep work is 20 man hours per week. This cap is not flexible.
Ownership of Finished Product
Omega Vortex will retain no ownership over your finished work, unless otherwise stated. We do reserve the right to place a screenshot (for design work) and description of the work done in our personal portfolio. Whether or not we link to your finished work from the portfolio will be up to you.
Future Support for Work
Maintenance and upkeep rates for projects we have completed are exactly 2/3 of the original base rate charged for the project. Major security updates for work previously done are always free. Maintenance and upkeep can be requested at any time after a project's completion or not at all. It's completely up to you.
