(X)HTML/CSS Coding-Services
You don’t have to do everything by yourself. If you are running out of time or simply aren’t that enthusiastic about the coding process, you might be willing to consider special “coding services” to get your job done in time. Particularly since there are dozens of such services, the price is usually quite reasonable and worth the time you save, headaches you avoid and further projects you can keep working on. However, whether the result is sophisticated or not, is the matter of personal experience – at least it should be.
The companies and designers listed below do not design web-sites; instead they convert drafts and sketches (mostly in the Photoshop-format, .psd) into the (X)HTML-Code (with CSS-styling). The prices depend on the desired processing time. The faster you’d like to get the work done, the more expensive the coding will be. Some service providers offer optional extras – for instance, AJAX-Scripting and further interactivity.

August 23rd, 2007 9:00 pmHow can they afford to do them that cheap? It is incredible.

August 23rd, 2007 9:21 pmWell, my company has only used xhtml slicer. While it is a great timesaver, they do tend to take pretty big shortcuts to keep costs down. Sometimes these don’t matter, other times the entire site can break if the user does something as simple as bumping the text up one step. Also, graphical shortcuts means things like minute shadows may be left out, diagonal lines may not line up, etc. Overall however, it’s so cheap, that it is a great option when you don’t need anything complex but also don’t have the time to do it yourself.

August 23rd, 2007 9:34 pmI’ve used SliceMyDesign, a service from Jayme Blackmon. It saved me a ton of time, the CSS was right on, and I’ve been able to edit and change it to meet all my secondary page needs with no problems. Highly recommended.
Protent
August 23rd, 2007 9:42 pmI’ve used XHTMLized. They have been one of the originals in this category and while their prices have been on the rise, their service is well worth it. They will do exactly what you need or describe, and are very quick most of the time faster than the estimates. They know all the quirks and keep things standards compliant.
My only complaint is that every time I go to them the price has gone up. I mean it started at $79 way back, and has now gotten to $249 for a single page. But I have to say it is well worth it and still at $249 it can save you time to keep designing.

August 23rd, 2007 9:50 pmIf you’re looking for the personal touch, using one of these companies would be a great idea, especially if they can alter something to act in a specific manner (hovers, rollovers, etc…), but if all you need is a direct 1-to-1 conversion, a colleague of mine likes to use SiteGrinder2 Pro, a plugin for Photoshop which costs about $250 US.

If you do prefer working with people over a computer, there are many advantages do going that route (person over computer), but sometimes time is of concern.

August 23rd, 2007 10:18 pmHere is another one (X)HTML/CSS Coding-Service: http://snapcoders.com. We have used them few times … their work was perfect and time/money too :). Recommended

August 23rd, 2007 10:26 pmI suppose that the services would be good for a graphic designer who wasn’t also a competent coder, but having one coded page doesn’t a good template make. Twice I’ve use a service when I was in a time crunch. Both times the code was okay but only if all the pages exactly followed the Photoshop comp. There was no extra typographic classes. I found that I still had to massage the stylesheet to make it broad enough to serve as a template, so I didn’t save all that much time.
Then there’s the fact that working with somebody else’s code, while it may be perfectly fine, doesn’t follow my coding conventions. I suppose if you found one service that stayed consistent, that wouldn’t be a problem. But I’d lose the CSS libraries that I’ve worked out over time.
One other problem with jobbing out page styling is that you’d never get your own HTML/CSS chops up to speed. I can take a pretty complex Photoshop layout and turn it into a template set with a couple of variations in 3-4 hours, a simple one in less time. I only got efficient by practice and working out my own reusable classes.
As to SiteGrinder, I use if for quick and dirty HTML comps. It will put out pages easily, after you learn its layer naming conventions. But for any kind of CMS or Dreamweaver templates the pages aren’t flexible enough, or optimized enough for my tastes. I still template out from scratch. That’s a short term cost in time for a long term benefit in flexibility and ease of maintenance and re-usability.
These aren’t just control freak issues. Solid templates save headaches and time in the long run.

August 23rd, 2007 10:56 pmMMh, yeah, sitegrinder produces Xhtml strict, but isn’t as clever as specified:
- heavy pages ( thanks repeat-x ! )
- Try deactivating Css upon an example page and see!

August 23rd, 2007 11:06 pmI have used xhtmlslicer for several projects. As mentioned before, there turn around is good, but they do take short cuts. On complex sites they will get you about 80 – 90% of the way there, and you will still have to roll up your sleeves to get it just right. You do have to have a knowledge of css/xhtml to correct shortcuts that may break down when the site is fleshed with more content. I do recommend them however as ultimately it saves time and money and allows you to concentrate on design.

August 23rd, 2007 11:30 pmI recommend XHTML Genius. I’ve used them on a project or two and have been impressed with the level of clean code.
Peter
August 23rd, 2007 11:35 pmPSD2HTML is my vote. I am a designer and developer who occasionally just doesn’t have time to do everything myself. These guys rock! This is competent XHTML/CSS! They even implemented my design into a WordPress theme, and even through in a Javascript Form … all for $600 (this included three photoshop template pages). Incredible! They very nice and they communicate suberbly and promptly! No need to shop anywhere else.
Vince
August 23rd, 2007 11:53 pmWell, why are they so cheap?
They have a number of templates, and the one that fits best for a design will be used. But then… It costs extra if you want a sticky footer or a fixed header or any other stuff that has just that little of extra.
Also, they don’t keep SEO in mind, so in my opinion they’re pretty expensive for what they offer.
Harry
August 24th, 2007 12:38 amPSD2HTML produces nice, slim and optimized CSS and valid XHML. The guys pay a lot of attention to detail, for instance all the headlines that use background images are coded with FIR technique (Fahrner Image Replacement). The 24 hours delivery time refer to working hours, so usually it takes 3-4 days for a design to be coded.
PSDXHTML is cheaper, quicker (1 day), the code is clean, but here no attention to detail. Although I’m pretty sure, if you specify what you exactly want, you will get it.
With all of these service companies I’m always a bit astonished why they hide who they are and where the sit. You will never find a telephone number or address.
Rick
August 24th, 2007 1:24 amRecently I found this service called GoWebPlans(http://www.gowebplans) which offers far better service than these XHTML coding services. They will help you in doing the mock-up, developing standards and semantic aware coding and publish your site with the use of a CMS which makes later modifications to content dead simple.
Best thing is all this cost me just $495 and site was setup within 2 weeks. So I recommend you to give it a try…
Disclaimer : I’m one of their clients and not affiliated to GoWebPlans.
Troy
August 24th, 2007 1:55 amThat’s actually pretty good money, at least for me. It takes me around an hour or two to fully code a psd to xhtml and css. Heck, even at 100 bucks I’ll still be making a good hourly wage.

Dave
August 24th, 2007 2:26 amI’ve used PSD2HTML before and have been impressed with the service. It took longer than quoted, but that is completely fine because the work was good. I plan to keep using them.
Dever
August 24th, 2007 3:21 am@Troy – you must be kidding me with 1-2 hours … what are you coding “Hello world” ?
Never tried one of this services, but I’m seriously thinking of creating one.
Tony White
August 24th, 2007 3:31 amI was considering doing some work on the side of my normal job that is identical to what these companies offer. At these prices, though, it seems like a difficult market to enter (or perhaps the problem is that the market is *too easy* to enter).
I’ve read a comment that some of these companies don’t produce consistently good work, but other comments that mention how solid their reputation is. And as Harry points out, there is a lack of contact information on at least one of the companies’ sites, but that doesn’t seem to hurt their business.
More power to them.
Wolf
August 24th, 2007 4:02 amI wonder how many of these comments are by the sites’ owners themselves. Nevertheless, if anyone could show me examples of slices and the original design I could maybe form a little small opinion.
Phil
August 24th, 2007 6:13 amI recommend XHTMLized. Their service was excellent last time I used them.
By the way, weren’t they the ones that started this whole trend?
Dave
August 24th, 2007 6:45 amThanks for the mention here.
Since XHTMLized started the fixed price per time in a certain time marketing, there has been well over 100+ such business crop up on the web. It’s created a new industry which is a great thing as the web in now looking a lot more semantic.
At XHTMLized we’ve been in strong demand and over the years have built up a really solid customer base working with some of the webs greatest brands and web celebrities. These days we’re working more and more on large scale projects, and moving away from smaller one page, one off projects.
We’re establishing long term relationships with brands, agencies and designers which really want the very best quality. We are selective about the people we work with and always make sure that we have dedicated resources available for our selective clients.
We don’t advertise at all, and all our work comes from referral.
There’s something we’re working on now which will revolutionize this industry just as much as our marketing did a few years ago.
Thanks to everyone for the ongoing support.

August 24th, 2007 7:59 amThe price you have listed for Slice My Design isn’t correct, their sites says $220.
Troy
August 24th, 2007 10:24 am@ Dever
I don’t find it that hard to take a complex layout, slice it and code it. Of course they are templates I created, but it still only takes an hour or two. XHTML isn’t hard to code if you know what you are doing. I suspect that the people who do this as their job do it the same as I. I can see a complex site in which the designer has no knowledge of web design taking a a full day, but any designer is web knowledge can design it in a way that makes coding easier.
Vitaly Friedman & Sven Lennartz
August 24th, 2007 5:56 pmThank you, Alberto. We’ve corrected the price.
Rachael
August 24th, 2007 6:05 pmIf anyone wants to pay me to code up their layouts for them, I’m game!
These services definitely look like a good idea. I don’t think I’d personally use them, because I get pedantic and like to do things ‘just so’, but if I were a graphic designer with poor coding knowledge, or were simply in a rush and didn’t have time, I’d definitely check them out.
erenemre
August 24th, 2007 6:54 pmI’ve tried to work with PSD2HTML but at the beginning of work, we can’t deal.
Sorry but they are working with ticketing system and they answered my questions about work in 24-48 hours.
Alex K
August 24th, 2007 9:17 pmI’ve used the TheChoppr and was surprised how quickly and painfully was it. The guy responded to me within an hour and even he said 3 days I had the review version of my template within 2. Then he worked with me on the review and made all my requests and additional changes. Also, the page had very well organized and structured code.
I’d recommend TheChoppr and will definitely use them again.

August 26th, 2007 10:38 amI can’t recommend PSD2HTML highly enough. They are fast, friendly and their code is spot on. I have also had them install Drupal and create templates from my psd file and their work was excellent. Will keep using them for sure!
nate
August 26th, 2007 3:18 pmI have used and suggested PSD2HTML before. Their prices are good and their XHTML is good. But the CSS needs a little work. It’s good from a novice’s perspective, but if you’re looking to continue to build on what they create, it gets a little dicey. The way they format their CSS doesn’t always make it super easy. Being a 10+ year professional at this, my opinion is that they’re worth the money, but they’re not perfect.

August 26th, 2007 5:01 pmTo hell with these Indian places for $49, iv heard nothing but bad things for anything that has came from there.

August 28th, 2007 12:18 amHey John Macpherson- looks like you’ve been bitten more than once- Trust me, we’re not the call center variety- We’re a bunch of designers ourselves having worked in Advertising agencies in europe and the US- Take a look at our site and if you still think we’re a hole-in-the-wall outfit- leave a number- i’ll call you and we can talk design- or even better i can ask some of my regular clients from your neighbourhood to call you.
The point is its easy to get biased in a global marketplace- the smart thing to do is look for the best deals.

August 30th, 2007 4:07 amI have used Slice n’ Dice for 35+ projects over a period of time. They do a great job and I highly recommend them. Very professional and a pleasure to work with.
gonchuki
August 31st, 2007 2:30 amI don’t get why those services cost that much, may be where they are based life is more costly than here, but I’m used to charge $10/hour with a 10-15 hours turn-around for a basic template group (3 pages) and that’s more than enough money for a living.
And I’m not talking about indy-ish rigid code that looks like sliced with Photoshop, I’m talking about hand-coded cross-browser liquid code, easily adaptable and even commented.
Matt
September 1st, 2007 2:44 amSlice ‘n Diced did a great job on the website that I just launched. The code was clean and standards based. Fast turnaround and good support by Tyler after delivery. It was built into a content management system, so a few tweaks were needed after content was added, which was no problem – Tyler took care of it. One really nice bit about the code was that the CSS was well organized and commented, very easy to work with! I had no problems with the design “breaking” when for example, the font size is increased, the layout is very flexible. Great service!

September 5th, 2007 12:40 amI can only say the best of the best is what you get from PSD2HTML.com!
The team took on a complex project with multiple index pages, including Flash and non-flash pages. The Joomla template conversion was flawless on their part. The team stepped in to help me even after delivering the
conversion to answer any questions I had about how to utilize the template and get the most benefit out of it. I can’t think of anyone else you should turn to for help!
Christian
September 5th, 2007 10:39 pmI was hesitant at first, but it was DEFINITELY worth it. I am starting a new company and I like everything to look VERY professional, I refuse to accept anything less. I gave the design team at PSD2HTML some general rules and details about my design requirements and then turned them loose. They gave me some GREAT ideas that I would have never thought of. They are TRUE artists. The xhtml CSS design they did for me was well worth the risk, time, and money. It matches my PSD
design flawlessly.
The PSD2HTML team were always professional and answered my questions and concerns promptly. If you are looking to possibly go with them for your design, I would readily suggest their service over anyone else’s! I hope that I can work with PSD2HTML in the future.

April 17th, 2008 9:30 amThe saying is true, you get what you pay for. I’ve dealt with a number of slicing shops, most of which look home grown but once I get into the process it’s difficult to get the job completed because of foreign workers. It’s hard to understand them, time zone differences and cheap labor make for a quite interesting combo. Most recently I used http://slicemydesign.com (based in the good ole USA) – yes the price was a bit higher, but heck if you want quality work then it’s worth it – Jayme is a great guy to work with and the turnaround is fast. xhtmlized.com is even higher and they are used by a ton of clients, though I’ve never used them! My suggestion is if you want concise clear communication go with one of these two shops. They are friendly, down to earth and easy to deal with. Just my 2 cents.

May 15th, 2008 4:32 pmIf anyone is thinking of using CSS Rockstars, you may want to hear my story first. I wanted them to make a CMS template (Prestashop) for me from my design. At first they were very good. Replied to my emails promptly etc. Anyway, they got my design on a Monday. their site says 3-4 days turnaround. so, i email on friday to get an update. i didn’t hear anything until the following monday and i know that they have email support on weekends. no big deal. so then i’m told my project was supposed to finished that day but they had some delays and it would be finished on that thursday. ok, still no big deal, i wasn’t in a big hurry. thurs comes and goes. so i email again on friday. on sunday with no explanation whatsoever they refunded my money. after a few emails asking for an explanation i still got no response. so, they wasted my time for 2.5 weeks and never gave me an explanation. at least i got my money back and that’s the best thing i can say about them.

July 28th, 2008 11:27 amW3-Markup…
Used them on a couple of projects. For the price I was not happy with the customer service I got. If you want to get a comparable price to the other services listed, you’ll have to wait 7 days to see anything, then you’ll have to go through corrections with them. In my experiences, I’ve had to tell them numerous times to make changes before they actually happened, plus these guys had a nasty attitude. In the end I got what I asked for, but it just took a long time and was more expensive than their competitors.
PSD2HTML…
Had to do some back and forth but in the end I got what I needed. Communication has a bit of a lag, but I got what I needed.
csscoder
July 29th, 2008 2:22 amI’ve recently compiled a list of these services on my blog.
There’s really a LOT of them and also a LOT who do not produce quality code. Just increasing the text-size breaks the layout, some of their sites do not even validate.
Based on coding quality, I’d probably go with yummycss or xhtmlizers
As for customer support, I think a simple email would be a good way to start to at least gauge how fast they can respond. Good techinical skills and good communication is vital for these types of projects.
I hope someone can pool some funds to properly evaluate their work.

August 5th, 2008 12:55 pmHello,
We used cssJob.com for our outsource XHTML css coding service and we got a great deal. So far probably the best one we used for that price ($89 per page), but for quantity they always give us a discount.
Nice post I am just sad I didn’t found it earlier, before I spent a lot of time and money :) but currently I am very happy with cssJob

August 11th, 2008 1:50 pmdo not use htmlblender they can not deliver.
I asked them to do a project and they were yes yes yes. Til they got my money now, they won’t tell me what is going on with my project. Very disappointed in this service.

August 13th, 2008 7:45 amI try MyPsdtoHTML.com. They converts a design from any of common formats (PSD, PNG, JPG, GIF etc) to a high-quality XHTML-CSS page.

August 16th, 2008 8:04 amI have used many times psdxhtml.com and have nothing but good things to say. Not sure about the 18 hours return, but close to it anyway. They do communicate with you if needed, but in most cases you upload your design, you pay, and in 2 days or so you get your page back. I am always requesting the sliced psd back and it is no problem as well. Highly recommended. Saves me so much time!

October 7th, 2008 1:56 pmhas anyone heard of http://eecoder.com/ ?
I am looking at making a site with multiple media galleries and it seems like expression engine would be the best cms to use for this. so i am looking for a coding service that would work smoothly with ee.
Has anyone used this company, or would you suggest another service that would also incorporate ee into the service?
thanks!!

October 15th, 2008 5:16 amalso I tried http://www.djaxo.com they offer good value for money, with high quality and speed, I liked working with them and I would recommend.

October 30th, 2008 11:06 pmFinely Sliced has been given a facelift, mainly to reflect our position in the psd/html marketplace, i.e. offering quality. Feel free to give us a shout. We don’t have the capacity to deal with bulk projects, or turn them around in 8 hours. But we do offer regular clear communication, and quality code.
Thanks.

November 16th, 2008 1:09 pmI would like to mention also our coding services at http://youweyoucoding.com. Our prices for PSD to XHTML/CSS coding are starting from $79 per homepage + $39 per subpage.

December 6th, 2008 3:19 pmBeen working with a lot of this shops and honestly, don’t go with anything that starts lower than $200 – they don’t know anything about coding! Trust me, it’s really better to pay more and save yourself a headache – still it’s affordable.
Previously I was happy with xhtmlized.com and w3-markup.com, lately we teamed up with cssninjas.com – best option so far.

December 16th, 2008 5:15 pmI haven’t found a service yet that includes Javascript, Ajax, PHP in their pricing model. Some can do it, some cannot, and it always requires a special quote. It would be great if they factored that kind of work in.
Modern sites usually have at least some interactivity beyond simple buttons & links. I understand that the business model here is specialized & simple – so maybe it just doesn’t make sense for them to work that kind of stuff in. If one of these shops included it in their model & did good work, they would stand a cut above the rest.
Anyone know of a good shop that can handle javascript ajax & php, in addition to XHTML/CSS?

December 28th, 2008 5:45 amIf you are a company or a designer needing a very quick turnaround on a budget, I would point you in the way of xhtml.weboutsourcingservices.com.

February 10th, 2009 2:17 pmExcellent resource.
I had hired a coding company that advertises heavily on Adwords, and I had a very bad experience. I’m glad to see that they were not listed here.
I’ll check out these firms.
Thanks!

February 25th, 2009 10:51 amI recently had http://www.htmlblender.com/ do a project for me. They missed the deadline and their only excuse was that “sometimes deadlines are missed” what a crock. How do people operate a business like this? Run and run fast.

March 1st, 2009 11:20 pmJust a warning, be extremely careful when you’re dealing with CSSRockstars.com.
The owner of this site, Chris Wilson, is a very rude person and has a history of scamming people.
Some forum threads dated 2006-2008 I could find in just one query on Google:

http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=22483.0
Apparently he also owns TwentySixMedia.com, a web design & development service provider. And he is a regular member on a forum talkfreelance.com

April 29th, 2009 3:07 amI’ve used The PSD Coder before, its not on that list though but it’s pretty cheap and so far hasn’t caused me any problems… Cost me $79 to get my homepage done and another $15 to get a contact page / form set up. http://www.thepsdcoder.com
Kane
May 25th, 2009 10:37 pmI used http://thePSDcoder.com too… i was very impressed…. did what they said on the tin… very friendly, and most importantly, they emailed me like 20 times every time i had a question… so i felt pretty confident even on my first order.
run 4 jobs through them since, and all have been great.
