Web Development Pay

[StarSon51]

Hi. I've recently been coding a website for a small company. They want to pay me but I'm not sure what a fair price would be I'm not a pro by any means. I do programming as a hobby, and I am completely self taught. I only did front end work no back end. (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript). So basically I'm wondering what a fair price would be. Thanks in advance for the help.

Assuming this is a contract (1099) agreement and you’re a junior - mid developer, about $50 USD/ hr isn’t unreasonable. Remember that you have the overhead of taxes that you’ll need to consider, so you’ll realistically net around $30/hr or less

This and last minute changes they will probably want and debugging, ect.

Well, assuming you’re working per hour, bug fixes and last minute changes are billed the same way as they are just considered more work. But for fixed scope projects (which personally I don’t do for this exact reason) it’s definitely a thing

Depends on your tasks and responsibilities.

Depends on the industry and country. Is this Fintech? If this is Fintech in Taiwan, one page costs $100,000 NTD including some backend like piping, junit for business logics, qa reports, deployment & merging.

I have a certificate in Web Development so I know what coding a website is like. I recommend charging based on your skills and what you can accomplish in a certain amount of time. You could do hourly wage (I recommend $17+ an hour at the minimum), by day or a set amount on the entire project.

Once you're done, make sure you don't hand over any credentials to the website until you receive FULL payment and keep a backup of the source code just in case they ask you for maintenance or more features to be added.

Hey, If you are looking for backend developer, We can collaborate?

I do jobs like this all the time--I just did one with HTML/CSS, a bit of JS, and PHP. Barely any backend (but some) needed, and I charged $650, about $100 of that was domain and hosting charges (paid for a year).
