Hello,

I have done some sites for my dad and friends and have decided to start a side business building brochure sites.

I charge a flat fee per page for just HTML pages. But I am noticing that clients are making the job alot longer with all the changes they think up after I have done what they have already asked.

I was wondering those that have their own web design business. When you are developing a new site and the client wants changes made constantly before you go live, when do you say enough is enough and start charging for changes?

I personally have a contract drawn up stating what will be done and what it will look like, the customer then agrees to this and the site is started. Once the template for the site is complete, go back to the customer and ask for their comments. Once they agree it is satisfactory and any changes are made have them sign the second part of the contract agreeing that any changes made after this point will require a small fee per change. Works for me and Ive never had anybody moaning about it.

thanks i will do that.
