Re: Website Pricing Help for Web Designer From Patrick R at GrowSpot.com on 30 May '00 replying to Re: Website Pricing Help for Web Designer posted by Craig S Gillen >Excellent. I thought there might be an easier way. This will definitely work, but it just seems like a lot of guess work. anyway i sincerely appreciate the help. >thanks >Craig S. Gillen >CSGWeb The main benefit of "guessing"(I like to call it "estimating" :) beforehand, is you know how much you are going to get paid, and they know how much it is going to cost. Additionally, you can get paid in increments, which protects you from a client backing out, or funding disappearing. There will probably be some bumps in the road as you get a feel for how much time it will take, but it is a better way. I would recommend trying to get smaller jobs in the beginning to protect you from making excessively costly mistakes, or use that disclaimer like I said. Best of Luck!
