all cost related matters come here.

i don't understand how you work on a price without an a price that's agreed upon.

as to value the site, I'd say anywhere fro RM 1.5k to 2.5k would be fine.

css is broken and i can see the flash outlines.

but anyway, the price range goldfries stated should be ok. but it depends on how much time you spent on it.

school kids looking for side income is your best bet.

but you have to think about the VALUE of your site. paying RM 100 for nonsense? or paying RM 1.5k for a decently done site?

having a badly done site affects your image.

Spending RM100:

1. You'll get an ugly look
2. No XHTML and CSS validation and at some browser your site looks like a rubbish
3. 1 Week work will be done in 6-7 weeks
4. You'll get result from inexperienced human
5. They use free templates somewhere...

and more reasons that you can ask other people and read it here..

and as you guys can see, they also use free templates..

Thanks alanelf for your sincere comment. I'm pretty sure the background music is slowing down the load time.

I accept criticism when the critic's intentions are GOOD. When I read your criticisms, I'd say both of you are childish and inmature. In the scenario where there is a customer asking for 100RM layout, as if you're a small businessman, either you take it or leave it. In my case, I'm voluntarily accepting the offer with small wages. Is it wrong?

To say the least, IMO there's nothing wrong with you accepting such amount/ fees paid for such a site.

Unlike housing projects which can be calculated ( cement, ironsworks etc.) online project's are much flexi-quoted thing. This is because no standards in measuring a website's value till now.

For me, it's fine to take any amounts of money, as long as you think it would be worth the pain in the a$$ you'd bear.

Gudlak and keep your business growing

Actually I've heard of some web designers giving free sites away, just to build their portfolio, as well as build links back to their own site, which advertises their web design services.

Just make sure you do a good job and good luck.
