How Much Do You Charge for Website Design?

It requires more expertise and confidence to tune a template to your taste. In my experience as a web designer, it is easier to build a website from scratch that to fine tune a template ore re-design a website (depending on the complexity of the template).

Back to the original topic on how much to charge for web design. Your rates should depend on how much work is required to be done, how much you value your time and expertise and how valuable the project is to your client.

This is the information age and ignorance is very expensive. What might seem easy for you to do may be a Herculean task for another. Don't underestimate you knowledge and how much you should charge for it, it's business and the law of demand and supply holds.

For charities, I personally offer a discount

It depends on the design functionality you want to add in your website.

You will find packaged based services here and there. Often you cant decide which is better for you.

I have tried some free services which provide you the customized Price and Rates according to your website development.

I got best result and saved my expense.

How Much Should Web Site Design, Development, and Hosting Cost?
-----------------
    Once upon a time there was a steam generating plant that was not producing much steam. After a frustrating search for the cause, the plant manager, in desperation, called in an expert. After only two hours on site, the expert found the problem and placed “X’s” on two pipes that were causing the problem, saying that they had to be removed.

    When presented with the bill, the plant manager asked the consultant how he could charge $5,000.00 for only two hours of work. When he asked for an itemized bill, this is what he got:

    1. $400.00 - Placing “X’s” on two pipes

    2. $4,600.00 - Knowing where to place the “X’s”

    The plant manager got what he paid for and probably a lot more. He had already used up more than that amount on his own staff not to mention the loss in revenue while the plant was shut down. For him, securing the advisory services of a consultant was the right thing to do.
