It’s called 449 and is a service that promises to deliver you a professional blog design for £449 (at present that’s just over $834 USD or around $1100 AUD).
For that price you get a WordPress blog with free hosting and domain name for a year as well as the blog’s design.
Previous work from Chris can be seen here, here and here.
It’ll be interesting to see how his service goes. In my experience dealing with bloggers – there are a lot who aspire to professionally designed blogs but in most cases I find when I mention the type of prices that designers charge that people decide to either give the design a go themselves or go for a free template.
Is this a good deal?
I guess it comes down to personal taste (if you like his work), your own design ability, your blogging goals and aspirations as well as your budget. $834 isn’t the cheapest I’ve seen blog design advertised at but by no means is it the most expensive.
