WordPress site in 24 hour for $1000
I'm curious about peoples thoughts on such a product. There would have to be clear requirements, like content already created and use of an already existing template with a little customization.
Anyhow is this a ridiculous idea?
- donbronson 14y agoSeems expensive for existing template and little customization.
- pkhamre 14y agoWhy would I choose a $1000-solution when I can use wordpress.com for free or a minimal fee for more customization?
- thatusertwo 14y agoWe obviously have to offer much more then the free solution.

- debacle 14y agoWe regularly do 800-1600 dollar WordPress sites in a similar timeframe (assuming 24 hours = 3 business days). These sites are fully customized, and include design.
- thatusertwo 14y agoI meant a 24 hour period, so 1 pm on Monday to 1 pm on Tuesday. The idea would be the quick turn around, I assume we'd need to give service on par with you and your company.
- debacle 14y agoFor a 24 hour turnaround we'd charge a 100% markup, so 1600-3200.
- MarlonPro 14y agoElance would deliver in shorter turnaround on 1/10th of that amount (or even lesser). I am not trying to spoil your idea but this is the reality. If you can surmount that possible hurdle, then your idea might just be great. But until then...
- thatusertwo 14y agoYeah, that is a serious concern. Its hard to compete with people who can live for a week on what I need in a day.
- MarlonPro 14y agoBut you know that, on the right market, many companies are willing to pay $1,000 for that kind of service. I'm sure there is a market for such service.
- thatusertwo 14y agoThis is why I like Hacker News, its a good way to quickly evaluate an idea.
