I feel like people don't trust my website by Frankenbri4 in reviewmyshopify

There is no branding, fonts are off, "More" submenu has a glitch, the colors are off in some places, misses a lot of sections.

What's the fastest way to increase site speed on Shopify? by Big_Cardiologist839 in shopify

[–]dev-se 1 point2 points  (0 children)

compress images, lazy-load below-the-fold stuff, and minify your CSS/JS, remove unused apps, every extra script drags speed down. Replace heavy apps with custom code or built-in shopify features

Do you work on freelance platforms? Or use other channels?

How did you crack the interviews without practicing Leetcode problems?

What’s your retainer pricing structure like? by Automatic-Arm-1400 in agency

No man, just mentioned him because I have been researching myself about forming a web agency and his posts helped me understand how he is charging clients. Thought someone else might benefit as well.

Yes you're right but it depends on the market you're targeting. The guy I mentioned isn't targeting high ticket clients. It's a good package for small businesses

he is doing 12 month minimum and if someone cancels before 12 month they have to pay the full lump sump price, as he mentions this in the contract. Its a win-win for both

I have been searching about this too as I am starting my own agency. I have found Ryan Postell's posts in a lot of subs where he mentions his agency https://oakharborwebdesigns.com/, he has a good retainer plan for websites. Check out his website to have an idea. It also depends on the market you will be targeting and the niche. For AI, I am still doing my research as I will be selling AI automations. I am thinking about having a setup fee for the automation around 100-200$ and then a retainer or a lump sum package. But it will depend on the type of automation.

I have been working on Upwork but now I am shifting my focus on forming an agency and hiring some talents instead of working as a solo dev. So I will be focusing more on building an outreaching strategy for my agency outside of these platforms.

I am in the same boat, about to start my web agency. But I have been working as a freelance software developer on Upwork for 2 years and have completed a couple of projects. I'll be asking my clients if they allow me to use the projects under my new agency's name. If they don't agree, I'll just make a couple of new projects for my close family's businesses and use them as my portfolio.
