You are more or less a webmaster , so 30k per month is fine or installmental charge of 5k to 10k per action, depending on lines of codes. You can visit our hosting company for better direction. www.radialhosting.com.ng

Thank you sir, I will check out your website

nnamdiosu:
Hello bro,
You are welcome.

Truth is, for this kind of task, there really isn't a common industry standard of charging. Many times, developers charge clients with work like this based on their personal relationship etc.

However, for hosting and domain renewal , 25k should be fine for a WordPress site that will have the capabilities you mentioned.

Then for updates they have two choices. Either they pay you a all fee monthly, (regardless of whether you update anything or not)...or they pay you a certain fee for every single.time you update.
Both have advantages and disadvantages. But since you said it's small modifications and image upload you will do, then 10-15k per task you do on the site will be fine.

Feel free to buzz me for any other issues and I'll help out if it's in my power. Take care bro

Thanks for your input sir, I do appreciate. I will take all you've said into consideration.

I'll try and reach out to you via pm or WhatsApp possibly by next month when I'm a little less busy. There are some areas I still need direction on with respect to web development.

Stay blessed sir!!!

nnamdiosu:
Hello bro, nice to meet you here...from Charlie's thread again.

To answer your question properly, there are a lot of options that you need to supply.
There are several types of hosting.so before you place a charge, or before we advise you, we need to know what kind of hosting do they want.

Is it a dedicated server, vps or just a WordPress hosting?


Also concerning the minor adjustments, this also varies. Is it normal test adjustments or is there a software.yoy need to be updating?
Will you be adding databases etc? In summary, what kind of site is it?

So once.yoy supply the above, we can provide you with a suitable answer.
Cheers friend.

It's nice to have you here sir....... Been a while, hope all is great

A WordPress hosting will do. Adjustments aren't major, it would just entail updating information or changing images once in a while. It's a small company engaged in some engineering services. But I want to acquaint myself with what should be appropriate industry wise.

You seem to be a few steps ahead of me in this journey and it will be nice to learn a thing or two from you besides my question question above.

It's a pleasant surprise hearing from you. Thanks

Client wants to transfer domain address to me so I will be providing:
Hosting
Domain Renewal
Ensuring Site and Email Accounts are up and running
Minor adjustments (possibly once a quarter)

Please gurus in the house should advise how I may tailor my charges.

Thanks

CodedWealth:
I am torn in between the both,

In terms of battery, durability and quality (if u know what I mean...

Now your advice should be more from experience, because most of this what will see advertised online isn't mostly reality

How much do they cost?

Kelvin30286063:
I still hate them either way and I'll remain an android developer forever!

Hello Boss, good day

Please what do I need to become an android app developer?

It means you have not gone out to ask. There are people who will even teach you for free so long as you are serious and hardworking.

Go out and make your intentions known to good tailoring shops around you. Few do charge as per their standards but most will only ask you to buy drinks and pay a token.

Just make the effort to get a good place.

Fantazy:
Since after eating strong eba ( prepared garri) with egusi (melon) soup meant for almost 2 people, My stomach has remain bloated/big for almost 4 days now. I have eaten fruits such as Banana, cucumber, oranges etc.to help ease my bowel but it not working! I only defecate very small quantity compared to when I almost always filled up the toilet when defecating (before these few days)

Please what can I take to help defecate much so that my stomach will go down and flat as a man that I am?

Thanks for your advices in advance

If you have digestive issues, honey and citrus fruits may not help, especially with the bloating..... Try some ginger or maybe Apple cider vinegar, but ginger should be your best bet for bloating.

Cyntie55:
Good day nairalanders. Season greetings to y'all. I'm so angry right now. Please I need mature advice.

My father is not a learned person but he make sure all his children are graduates. My younger brother(last born and only son) rounded up his Nysc few months ago, we're just 2 girls. My elder sis and I. My elder sis is a nurse in Austria (3 years now), she's married with a kid in Austria. My big sister send money home once in 3 months, and I have been the one receiving the money. I share the money exactly as instructed by my big sis. I have never cheated anyone, Infact my Dad and Big sis communicate very well. My Dad trust me so much.

My younger brother is always angry, He said he feel cheated all the time. He shouts and talks to me anyhow like I'm his mate.
Honestly speaking, I gave my younger brother more love and respect that he could ever imagine. When he was serving, he would call telling me he need 10k urgently, sometimes 20k, that he will pay back. Immediately I will send it to him and he would never pay back. Same thing he does to my father.
If we ask him what's he using his allawee for?? He would angrily say so is becus we're sending him "chicken change" that's why we're asking jamb questions.

He said we don't regard him, he called my Dad a SIMP, he said my Dad listen more to my big sis and I....but he don't listen to any of his suggestions.

My brother is a 2:1 (second class upper) graduate in economics from UNIBEN. After his Nysc all he does is to sleep and eat. My Dad's good friend told my brother to come to Lagos and resume work with him. He refused. My Dad ask him if he wants to further his education (masters or professional courses)he said no....Okay follow my Dad to his cement shop and help him (my dad even promised to pay him salary) he refused....I overheard him on a call with a friend and i suspect he's now into yahoo yahoo.

Look at what happened. My big sis sent us money yesterday to celebrate this festive period. She said I should give my brother 50k, I should take 80k and give my father the rest (abt 250k). My Dad is always aware of everything.
I even added 20k out of my money and I transferred 70k to my brother, I was left with 60k (becus she also sent me hair and I plan to sell it becus I already had enough). You can imagine this ungrateful idiot started insulting me, that I cheated him. the fool angrily withdrawn the money from his account and SET IT ON FIRE (70k). He called my elder sister and started warning her saying "if he can't receive the money henceforth, she should stop sending him money again that he's the man of the house".
My Dad gave him a resetting, resounding, hot and dirty slaps. He pulled out a knife, deflated my Dad's car tyres and ran away from the house.

Everyone is not happy. I don't want my brother to live a wayward life. He's 24 years old. Please nairalanders Help!

That boy most likely sort his way through school, lots of dull people sound intelligent

You guys should be ready to take some hard decisions on him, for example

No one naira until he gets a job and starts being responsible.

Find out how to cut him off from his negative friends.... This will be difficult as the only matured man in the family is your dad.

Hr should be ready to bare the cost of fixing your dads car no matter how hard the labour that brings the money

Pray earnestly for him, he is just on the line and could easily be lost

The only love he needs now is tough/unfriendly love

EmperorTolson:
Today is Christmas Eve, three pastors jam at my parent's house. Why must it have to be on festive period like today before they visit. There are 365 days in a year.
Is this for love or for selfish interest.

Yes you right about some pastors but the timing of your post makes you less believable

Stop lying now or your pastors are so jobless that III of them are already at your parents before VII-XXam

FlipModeSquade:
Yeah?

Try wrapping your head around a talking serpent..

A flying horse..

A multi headed monster..

And a God who sacrificed himself..

To save humanity from himself..

You prove my point young one......... But I'll allow you enjoy yourself today......

Tetehjewels:
I honestly do not care about anything you just said above. "Atheism is a belief in unbelief" amazing confusion.

Anyway what I said was Atheism is an unbelief period but if to you it is a belief in unbelief then good luck with your brand of coffee

E shock you?

Arguing with atheists can be very tiring?

Zico5:
I just pray this case will not die a natural death. As well, the management of the school need to answer some questions. I read somewhere that the principal of the school is known to condone such act from the school she came from and she is already planning to flee to South Africa. The bullying in our boarding schools must stop.

Which school did she come from?

pocohantas:
No devil entered them. It is who they are. The signs are always there. Some people are not family oriented or accommodating.

I generally have a problem with people that do not respect my space or rules, given that I have chronic OCD. That is my problem with guests. But if you give me my way, mind your business and help in your own little way to take care of the home, we have no problem.

Truth is, Nigerians are very bad guests and they don’t know. The ones from the man’s side tend to be the worst. No disrespect intended.

You don't have OCD, believe me.

Sheriman:
4 GB of RAM can't run Android Studio anymore even without installing emulator it will still not run it properly. If you want to run Android Studio without wahaala just get a Laptop at least 8GB of RAM with 256GB Solid State Drive of memory and 2GB Nvidia graphics card. Although, you don't really need that Nvidia graphics card if you would not be doing intensive graphics work. This will make it run Android Studio faster than on an HDD Laptop with 8GIG RAM and just ordinary Intel graphics card.
Meanwhile, if you have the money, you could get a 16GB of RAM with 500GB SSD and 2GB NVIDIA Graphics Card Laptop to have a smooth running and enjoy your development on Android Studio.
Hope it really helps

How much can one budget for this? Either new or foreign used?

The two civil servants, them be ghosts? No name?


How come we always discover ghost ghost workers or recover items from none existent people? People should be in jail for these now


It's very wrong.

taiwofawole:
In a country like Nigeria both saving and investing are good but do not do them in Naira , saving & investing in dollars is the biggest flex .. one of the best way of investing in dollars is via blogging . If you have the financial ability , invest in blogging now that is one the easiest way to be sure you not solely depending on Naira . As at 2017 $1 was around 320 - 370 now $1 is 550 - 570 , for someone that had a blog in 2017 , 2020 he would be more financially stable because he has means of dollars earning .. What many people fail to understand is that it isn’t about your current adsense earning but that asset that can give you a financial freedom from Naira . Let me quickly run to a client adsense Dashboard and make a screenshot (I’m modify this post at 10:14, check the time on the first two screenshots, if you don’t mind I can invite you several adsense account own by my clients)

Good day sir,

How much should I budget for first three months of operating my blog, assuming I will not be handling the content generation.
I will appreciate your breakdown of things I need to plan for. I believe cost of running the site online should be for the first year.



Thanks

I will take the southern governors serious when Fulani cattle owners start paying tax.

Modrov:
The refineries don't work because for years they have been forced to work at a loss....so that Nigerians can get cheap fuel

As for payment....Government does not pay NNPC workers from the profit of their refineries...it is from allocation to NNPC.

i DON'T like Atiku, but there is a good reason why he called for NNPC to be privatised.

The former VP does not mean well.

The refineries should be privatised not NNPC

Just the way it’s a hard struggle for people that want to lose it.

Yes it is difficult to lose weight, but not as difficult as trying to gain weight for the people I'm referring to........ Trust me on this.

How can one gain weight easily without risk of obesity and unwanted fats?

Weight gain is one of the hardest struggles in life for those with a lean body type.

You'll need a specific change in your diet as well as exercise regime....... Cause your only hope is via building muscle mass.

It's possible you have low stomach acid.

passionguy:
Pls what did u think I can do now because his on watch now and on the run.

Don't pamper him, show him though love.

You guys should help the police to make sure he is arrested for his latest crime and he serves the complete punishment.

Thereafter you guys should strike a deal with him. Tell him he is an outcast and a disgrace to the family and the family will not lift up a finger to assist him until he gets a job no matter how little.

He should know there is a line drawn and whenever he crosses it he should pay for the full punishment else you guys will die of HBP even before the black sheep.

He is old enough to face the consequences of his actions.

Health experts in the house.

Please help me.

I've been having watery and frequent stool for over a month. I stool a minimum of three times a day and its always watery.

I have visited hospitals and done numerous tests but no improvement.

I have done Blood test, stool test, Covid-19 test and HIV test and all were negative.

I have used all sorts of antibiotics and anti-diarrheals as recommended by doctors and pharmacists; Azithromyin, Metronidazole, Ciprotab, lomotil, loperamide etc.

I am single but have a girlfriend. We have MouthAction and rarely use condom.

I remember that around the time this stooling started, I bought a rice at one Captain Cook eatery, the rice's taste was slightly changed. Also, I remember I bought a sandwich at another eatery (not on same day) that didn't taste too good.

Please help.

I think you have IBS and/or Lactose intolerance.
