Website Header Design
Graphically Innovative Designs - Hampton, Virginia

All websites need an eye-catching header.

That's why I offer website header design services that are affordable and fast.

On this page you will see how I price my different styles of headers, along with examples at each price point.

As mentioned before on my website design services page, I have an a-la-carte option which allows you to choose where you want to spend your money and pick your price.

Website header design for most clients can range anywhere from $45-$250. It all depends on how much custom design work you want. See the three different categories below for more information.

The Basic Website Header Design

The first level header is called Basic. It covers the necessities of a website header. Usually a basic style header will cost $45-$55. It includes a styled font and simple decorative & visual elements. Visual elements include feathered edges, gradients, and transparencies.

This header to the left is considered a basic design because it has a simple styled title, and a few visual elements such as the blue feathered box in the background, a gradient of light orange to dark orange and a drop shadow to make the words pop. A basic header design is included with any website package. This header would cost $45 a-la-carte.

Here's another example of a basic header that involves pictures. For any picture header prices start at $50 if you provide a picture and $55 if I provide a picture. Usually a quality high resolution (hi-res) picture is placed in the background, with styled text.

The Standard Website Header Design

The second level header is called Standard. This level is similar to what you see on the average website. Usually a standard style header will cost $100-$250. It includes a styled font, photos, visual elements and some custom artwork. Visual elements include feathered edges, gradients, and transparencies. You are allowed to use up to 6 of your own photos depending on your design or use stock photos that I provide at an additional charge.

To the left is an example of what a standard header would look like. Note that this is an upgrade from the example shown earlier. In comparison to the basic header shown earlier, this header is considered a standard header because it contains six pictures including the background, a cut-out figure, and several visual effects to create a polaroid look for five photos. This header would cost about $250 due to all the elements included.

The Premium Website Header

The third level header is called Premium. This level is different from any other because this type of header is totally made from drawings. Usually a standard style header will cost $300+. The price depends on the amount of custom work you want. Visual elements, styled text, custom artwork and photos are all included in this style header yet what makes it different is the degree of detail this style has.

The header that you see above for this site is considered a premium header. It has a lot of detail put into it. I used glow, gradient, and feather effects to create texture and contrast. The profiles of several people, on the left side of the header, had to be pulled from a photo using Photoshop techniques. Also one special thing about my header is that it's able to stretch and extend for different screen sizes without losing proportion.

Now this is a premium header designed for Perfect Wedding Dress Finder. All the figures were custom artwork that were made from scratch. Each figure created has a different style dress and varying facial features. There are also glow and gradient effects added to the background to create value and emphasis.
