<{POST_SNAPBACK}>so you would say for ASP.net freelance development charge £25/phour or so?
another forum told me to add on as much as 3 hours lol on the estimated time.
personally with this client id rather do things on a monthly basis because they want the site continually developed.. but they are persistant on per job costing.. which is fine by me.. will just work out more expensive for them.
Because obviously with a gauranteed monthly fee I can allocate an agreed amount of hours and use that time more efficiently accross the site, rather than on 1 individual thing and when I can fit it in.. but its up to them.. just dont want to be done by on terms of what I need to be charging them and couldnt find any sort of specific guidelines on charges.
£20-£30 depending sounds about right, to be honest you'd be better off quoting per project rather than per hour.
yeah you find most companies big and small dont want to commit to a fixed monthly fee, we work with a massive mobile phone company and they are exactly the same. although what does work is you can sell them a block of hours for x amount, normally discounted for bulk buying. We only offer this though for minor updates and not for full on development work, so content updates, new images, chaning branding for promotional stuff etc.
