Comment on How much does a website cost? by Brendo

Important to take in account the economics of the business too – if you’re average profit per sale is $10k and you can bring in 2 or 3 sales a month via the web then its easy to justify to $10-20k or even $50k spend on a website.

On the flipside, if you make $2 profit per sale and do 50 sales a month that originated from the web then spending even a $1000 on a website may not be a profitable exercise

Bottom-line – work out how much you’re going to get out of it, then you can work out how much you can afford to put into it!

Great article, and generous with your information. One to show the potential clients when they want to understand more about the process.

I have found that a lot of small to medium enterprise budget around the $1.5 to $3k in my area. THis is where my sites range, there are some more well healed companies that are prepared and willing to pay more, but do they get more? I don’t think so. I have been working in they field for 11 years and have seen the changes in expectations in the business community.

My sites are all unique, well researched, developed with the customers in mind and with a business strategy behind it (i have a Masters in Business & Technology). The all have content management systems, some have full eCommerce capabilities, and most integrate with the customer’s other digital marketing channels.

I work form home and don’t have many overheads, though I use subcontractors form time to time. I figure it is time to increase my price range a little, but the smaller small business sites don’t take very long to do. There is a risk that i would price myself out of the market, or would need to work hard at repositioning my company to be more premium and less “inexperienced student and freelancer”. Thanks for this article, food for thought.

Comment on Guest Series: Peter Cooper – Capybara-WebKit: Bringing WebKit to your integration tests by Dana

Thanks for this post! Was having one heck of a time getting an integration to pass and I was missing RSpec’s “:js => true” declaraction.

With all the possible configuration options it’s difficult to know which syntax to use.

I’m back in business! WOOHOO!

Comment on Reloading Factory Girl Factories in the Rails 3 Console by Michael

Thanks! This works like charm. Your commands won’t work when using traits though. Adding “FactoryGirl.traits.clear” after clearing the factories fixes that. Thanks for the great advice!
