A shiny penny.

Examples please, so we can berate you and pick at your work with a fine-toothed geek comb.

I just wanted a rough standard charge, for example ££ per page, or just ££ for the whole page, etc. something like that.

What would be a rough average price?

Depends on your ability, experience and clientbase.

It's worth whatever you can get for it, quote a price and watch their reaction (unless it's by email !)

We can do better and charge less :)

Im making a site for my mum company, i am doing it for free but they may be paying me to keep it updated.

Here is what i have so far:

Forgot to say, any suggestions on what i could do to improve it?
remember i am doing it for free so i aint gunna make it excellent until they say they wanna pay me :P

Don't bother.

People won't pay.

Tyla does it professionally, I've talked to someone who tried it and even charging £10 a site they didn't get any business...

Don't embarrass yourself unless you're really good and you know you'll do good...

Here's my rates:

£290 - £500 per day depending on level of work/type of work involved. Basic Design/HTML build is the lower figure, Full CMS/Dynamic/Flash Driven is at the higher level.

or

£35 - £75 per hour, again depends on whats involved.

Updates charged at 10% of initial build cost.
