How Should I Determine A Price For Developing A Web Site?

Question

Okay, so a local car body shop owner is aware that I have a lot of knowledge with computer programming in general, and that I also develop web sites. He would like to pay me to develop a small web site for his shop.

What factors should I consider when naming a price? I know no one can tell you a set amount. And that I need to factor in what I feel my time and effort are worth, as well as what I feel the quality of my work is worth.

One thing that will drop the price is the fact that I've never worked with a business setting. I've done some personal web sites for friends and family, but that's about it. I know I'm perfectly capable of giving him what he wants based on some specs. he is going to give me.

Oh, and is the industry standard an hourly charge, or a flat fee?

I highly suggest charging a pre-agreed on fee, whether you do that as a flat rate based on pages/type is up to you or if you want to do it based on the hours that you work.

I don't know about all of you but I know I don't just work on programming when I work on websites many times I work on multiple things while programming.

If you plan on keeping exceptional track of your actual working time then go with hourly, otherwise, do pre-agreed based on complexity of the requests for the actual building.

When it comes to sitting with the client and discussing the website and how they want it to look, that makes sense to be hourly. or at least 15-minutes interval charge.
