Now i am just curious just what exactly everyone’s rates are usually.
I know it depends on the website. What would you charge for your typical multi-page website, built from nothing, no cms, not any e-commerce site
For my first ever real live gig to build a website, everyone keeps telling me I need to charge as a minimum twenty an hour for all the work I’m performing. But considering We’ve no prior substantiation of work released, I’m charging all these guys ten a couple of hours. Once I’ve proved myself, as long because website being developed is something that your customer is willing to pay more for, I’d start at at least 15 an hr and go after that. It’s all regarding selling yourself and proving you are worth that significantly.
That’s actually pretty reasonable, Ranma15g. When you are starting out, it’s better in order to charge a rate that will assist you to learn and confirm yourself. The only drawback is that will probably be an absolute ***** that will raise that rate for your particular client once you’ve succeeded in doing so… but you can charge more with the newer businesses you pick up to balance which out.
moscowabunga: there isn’t a such thing as being a " typical" site when you are doing it right. Why Because there is not any such thing as being a " typical" business. Every good business has a unique selling proposition and also a good web designer/developer should be able to add some unique aspects to the site that mirror the nature on the client’s particular business and distinguish that business from their competitors. So for you to answer your problem, I don’t have got a price in mind. I evaluate each one business, I assess each situation, and I go following that.
