So, I'm getting to the point where I think I may actually be underpricing for my sites, and that I've found I tend to also underestimate the amount of time I'm going to end up putting into a site.
Any body want to give me some tips on estimating time for the sake of coming up with a quote? Any other advice on determining rates?
Also when you raise rates, how do you explain why your sites have become a bit more expensive to clients (assuming you actually do have a good reason for doing so, what do you think is the best way to break it to them)?
I'm talking to a client right now, and so far they want a relatively simple site, still custom, probably not too graphic design intensive on my part, but it still needs to be nice of course. This site so far is going to have about 3 pages. Do you think that $300 is a reasonable rate for a student (and new freelancer) to charge?
