Try Scriptlance, Getacoder, Elance, Rentacoder .. and, if you don't understand web architecture, be very careful.

IT Mechanics in Pattaya do a pretty good job. Prices are very reasonable, but quality still costs some money.

Just curious, what is the normal rate in thailand for a site developed, say in Joomla? (CSS/template customization, some script customization etc) 50,000 baht and above?

[raro]

how long is a string? Depends a bit on the size of the site and your requirements I reckon!

Send a PM to Mr. Phil Connors, he is in that biz and reasonably priced.

Same answer, how long is a string? no two websites are the same, a normal site as above would be cheaper then what you state, I assume for that money a basic e-commerce system can be included as well.

My company does Joomla sites from XXX THB, but thats for bespoke design, joomla template integration, and navigation/modules/content setup not including customization of the core code. Custom modules etc we'd have to have a brief of requirements and quote on it.

Reminder from your friendly moderator: This post is borderlining spam but I let it slip. the price I have edited out as this you can discuss with your customer face to face.

I was giving an example of costs, if I was after more business I would be advertising on ThaiVisa or I could post comments that a friend of mine works for a company that designed thiswebsite.com - go to thiswebsite.com and their will be a link to the company that designed the site, this is acceptable acceptable?

As I said,,,,there is a fine line between recommending a business and self-promotion. Before I was a sponsor myself I said things like..."I can advise you to do things like this and that and I do know about it because I am in this industry". Would recommend this to other non-sponsors too.

//edit: And do NOT overdo it! it is a FINE line!

Be careful.

If you want cheap you'll get naff. The problems with getacoder, rentafreelancer and elance, is that everybody is doing web dev/design as a second job, dont be surprised if your vendor is a 15 year old kid that works on it when he finishes school, or a retired electrician, an airline pilot looking for a hobby etc... I always say no website is a better than a shit one, someone who does a 1 click Joomla install and throws a naff theme on a few shitty unrelated widgets is not a web designer. Ask yourself why you need a website, what you'll gain (or what to) and be realistic about a budget. If you can't recognize quality, or dont understand why its important, seek some advice - go for consultation.

For a bargain, I would start at designoutpost.com - get a proper unique design including splicing for say $700 and another few hundred for decent CMS integration, one years hosting and setting up internal pages. Cant be better bargain $1000 for a something slick (awaits flames from one click cpanel junkies). Ecommerce intergration / basic image uploading etc.. add another few hundred dollars - basic Paypal. If any custom programming is involved it is VERY important that they know what they're doing - ask them to explain cross site scripting, sql injection, etc.. etc.. 93.2% of proclaimed PHP devs simply cant code and you'll be left with an insecure site waiting to be hacked - the embarrassment and loss of reputation will be exponentially more damaging the $10/hr bill you paid.

As for thai/farang price - you can solicit a web designer from anywhere in the world - the price reflects an expectation of quality/professionalism.

Sorry for the negativity - but its getting to the point now that even the bargirls are offering web design - and unsuspecting leads are jumping in a hot frying pan attracted by the next to nothing prices - this wouldnt happen in any other industry.

You could always learn to make a word press site yourself, It would cover all the aspects that you need and its going to be a little cheaper than getting a programmer to do it for you.

Look to the forum home page for a ad to click on or go to www.webcoursesbangkok.com

Easy!

I have used Plaroma for many years. But as others have stated, Thailand is not the cheapest.

WEB Design and development are areas where Thailand is not a bargain market. Having talked to several people in the same situation as you are in, they all outsourced their work to India, with good results as a minimum cost. Each found their Developers on the Internet. I will try to post the site thay used to find developers and post it here also.

India and the Philippines seem to be the best places to try these days. I have used contractors that I found on forums such as Digital Point, and the Warrior Forum, but the results there were not great. Then there is eLance. Found some great people there. And also a Philippines based company called Virtual Done Well.
