I have been creating websites as a hobby for quite a few years, and
it's gotten around that I'm pretty good at it.
I've now been hired to create a website for a company. The person
wants to pay me hourly, but given my slow methodical nature, and his
nature to pick at and change and test this and that, this can easily
creep into thousands of dollars.
Well... I'm too honest to run away with more money than he would have
spent if he hired a professional.
I want to give the guy a fair deal. What is the average pricing
meathod for websites?
What I am required to do is create a website for an architecture firm.
Essentially, just a portfolio and contact information. From what he
has given me, he would like to have about 40 pages. I also have to do
everything that is required for getting the site up onto the internet
- finding webspace, domain name, and upload. After the site is
completed, I'll then be required to maintain it by updating
information every year or so. I also may be required to get the
portfolio into a digital media... such as scanning slides and
presentation boards.
Would a fair deal be to charge hourly for meetings discussing the
site, and for scanning slides, but then charge per webpage? If so,
how much is the going rate charging by page?
Thanks for your help.
