Web development costs are like any other: negotiable
Article Abstract:
World Wide Web site development costs may be high but they are negotiable. Web developers do not engage in horse trading to lower prices, rather they get concessions by developing long-time relationships with clients. They also engage in discounts based on volume which becomes possible when developers share assets through the Internet, intranet, extranet and CD-ROM programs. Firms also give discounts when large business intranet and electronic commerce projects are awarded to them.
