Website Business

From Bill Myers:

My wife charges $600 to $800 to create, install, and train a client how to use their new custom web site. That price includes the creation of custom logos and site graphics.

Before she takes on a client, she does a 30 minute phone interview with them so she can better understand their needs and their personalities.

She has learned that it definitely pays to get to know a potential client before agreeing to work for them, as some people have personality traits that make it difficult for them to ever be satisfied.

To find clients, Sonya got involved with different professional organizations on the national level, which showcase examples of her work. Lately, most of her new clients have come as a result of word of mouth recommendations from her other clients.

Getting into the web site creation business requires knowing HTML, CSS, PHP, Wordpress, Photoshop Elements, Aweber, Constant Contact, and web hosting. It also involves being able to solve problems and holding the clients hands through training when necessary.
