Build website, no idea what to charge!

    Hey guys,

    Built this website a while ago for a friend. Also set up the flickr, youtube, myspace, twitter and bebo profiles and skins for him along with some photoshop image work.

    Did it as a favour as we had an arrangement that I could use his car when he's not using it, Evenings and Weekends mostly, the only time I'd want to use it. But I've since bought my own car and the I only used his car for a year on and off, plus I paid my pwn insurance on it.

    I'm wondering, how much was all the work I did for him worth? Rough estimate would be grand just want to know how much I should be owed for the work.

    I can't tell you how much you should charge for this site, and trying to charge for a site after it's done, and when a price wasn't agreed at the start it just asking for trouble.

    If you were doing it again though, a grand sounds about right for producing a site of that level.

    Estimate the amount of time spent on the site, I like to build cheap websites, that I can knock together in a few hours, the main learning curve i had was agreeing exactly what is to be done first..

    Just finished a site for someone, and now they want a gallery section, and a few images changed (even though these images were agreed upon)

    Its my own fault,, from now on I will list out on paper exactly what i am doing, and how much it will cost, anything extra will cost extra..
