Quality sites and too cheap definitely.

When I looked to get a site done a while back the prices I was given were stunning. Ended up doing it myself using oneandone.co.uk and some help from Antonye but had I known about you....

Put them prices up and get out of that lorry!

Dom's only problem (and this is not meant in an offensive way!) is that he is not a "programmer" per se, so while he is quite able to create brochureware websites with nice designs and good content, most companies will want something extra such as feedback forms or a shopping cart.

Until Dom can add all of this to his portfolio, and comfortably knock out simple scripts, then he will be in a league of thousands of back-bedroom web developers who are no better than the next guy.

Be careful that you don't bite off more than you can chew and end up having to sub-contract out extras that the companies want. You may end up paying them all the income to sort one small part of the site and screwing yourself over on the rest.

Just make sure you know your market and your own limitations!

Yup, agree with that - now give me your bike!!!! :lol:

I've just created my first feedback form thing (although I'm using a remote form processor thingy $1.70 a month) and I've done basic shopping cart stuff, and also currently working on a mega heeeuge shopping 'experience' so that's bound to bore me silly with shopping carts.

:D

All the advice and kind words, emails and u2u's are greatly appreciated, it's nice to know you guys are out there!

:)
