Web Development - Pricing

It's difficult to provide a price for a web site. Every site I've worked on has at least doubled in complexity once the site got started. How, once you've finally decided to create your own dream site, can you possibly omit this or that feature once the project has begun and it becomes more obvious what else just has to be added?

That said, this is how we would proceed:

• Database Oriented - For sites involving programming (PHP, MySQL) I charge $40 an hour.
• Standard - For standard HTML sites I charge $30 an hour.

As far as an estimate, I could give you an idea of how long a site would take, but I won't commit to a set price.

The quickest and simplest way to create a site from scratch is for you to select a template and I adapt it to your needs. This eliminates a lot of back and forth in designing the look of the site, and gives me a great framework to just fill in the gaps.
