Occam are a database marketing company based near Bath in the UK. With their previous website, they were “locked-in”: all new content had to be sent to the website provider to be inserted.

A custom web design project can cost a lot, but the actual price will vary considerably depending on a number of factors, including the size of the site, advanced features, caliber of the team you hire etc. A previous client paid (another company) €5,000 for a static 5 page website and the price goes up [...]
