Ask HN: Price of web design

2 pointsd0m1 comment

In our startup, we are both developers and we need a great design for our web application. We're of course willing to pay for it but it's kind of hard to know what is a good price for a web design and also who we should contact. I would like to know what you would do in our situation. Thank you! (I omitted details only to make the post simpler to read but feel free to ask any more info.)

It has been my experience that the truly good designers (ones that are skilled in the psychology of usability, as well as design) run just a little less than a senior level developer, $80-$120hr. These are guys that can design sites that convert. Now if you are looking for someone that can just make stuff look good, then that is all over the board $20hr and up.
