I charge around $100 per page. I mostly find myself designing static sites for small businesses that are around 5-7 pages. This includes two revisions and one design. If they want me to make two or three designs then I charge at least $1,000 The client writes the content. I have a $400 minimum to even take a job
However. I never tell a client " I charge $100 per page" I talk with them, discuss what they want see what they liek and what they need and go from there. I can usually get an ongoing
SEO contract with the client as well so I factor that into the original design price as well, offering a lower price for long term contracts.
Strictly HTML sites with no programming except your standard contact forms and the client provides all photos and content.
Content writing adds an additional fee based on 400 word pages.
Any additional technical consulting including marketing, content and information management is more money. I also sub contract all of the programming php asp databases etc. and upcharge teh client because I deal with the programmer directly.
This works for me, You should read teh book
Million Dollar Consulting By Alan Weiss. He really gives great advice for the self employed consultant on pricing, marketing and selling yourself and your services.
I also get the "thats all?" comment from somke and from others I get the "Thats too much for our company" so its give and take. If I drop my prices, I drop my services I will use templates, drop the page count or revisions or extend the deadline significantly to offer a lower price. Often the people who want the lowest price are the ones whoc are the most difficult to work for. That is definately true! I am never afraid of losing a contract because the client doesnt want top pay me what I am worth.
