How Do You Price Out Website Builds?
Freelance Folks -
How do you go about pricing out a website design for a potential customer?
There are so many variables in each case in terms of what “website design” means for each gig, but does anyone have a rubric they follow for estimating pricing?
My specific example - a consulting group wants a landing page website with the usual About, Contact, Services, and Blog navbar as pages off the main. They want some things visually that will require some JavaScript, but this can mostly be done with a static page theme (any recommendations??). They’ve already got logos/image collaterals, colors, and a general layout designs from a local graphic design person and now they want me to turn it into a website and then, presumably, maintain it.
This may not be enough detail but a rough order of magnitude would be help here and greatly appreciated.
Thank!
My strategy-
Done.
Thanks @ankur_unitalks. Do you happen to have those slabs published for reference? I'm trying to understand what the market dictates here to a degree so I'm not the most expensive, but not the least expensive either.
Good point about the discount as well.
I really can't share with you also Even if I publish, That is no use. Because my pricing depends upon my type of clients, my persona. How do I charge? It's completely different in your case.
About Market Dictates, Price does not really matter. It's just about finding your niche.
I know the developer who charges way lesser than me. I know a dev who charge way more than me.
I have also written about this in my Linkedin Post-

Thanks again for that feedback and the link, I'll check it out!
No need to over complicate. How long will it take you. How much do you want to earn per hour. Is it a 3 day job, a week, a month or more. If unable to estimate effort then look to agree contract for number of hours and best effort.
Thanks for that feedback, this helps give me a frame of reference.
