Hey there, I was wondering what should I charge to my clients for a decent 5-7 pages wordpress site made using headway themes (customized).

Also the problem is I am from India, and most people fro UK and other developed countries don't trust people from India etc.

So I was wondering whats the way out?

    The best way is to make your offer for free for a few people, then use those few as references so people can tell you mean quality and are not out to hustle people. In terms of what to charge, i dont know...$50? maybe less depending on how much customization you do.

    It all depends on the quality of your work. I'd say start off cheaper than your competitors, thereby making it irresistible to opt for your services, regardless of where you live.

    And gradually, as you build up testimonials and publicity, start to budge the price up. As long as your work is very good, there should be no problem.

    Definitely advertise your services in the Warrior for hire section on this forum, you should get a good amount of takers.

    People are always wanting websites.

    Okay, so I have my own web designing business website, but how should I start getting clients.

    I want to focus on corporate clients rather than Internet marketers.

    I would say to offer them for very cheap at first, until you get some good reviews.

    If you are just starting out, I suggest you charge cheaper than the market rate.. After the project is completed ask them to leave a complete honest review..

    That way you'll be able to improve in your service (if that's a bad review) + provide testimonial in your website to increase your reputation and credibility (if that's a good review)

    You are so wrong. NOT everyone are like that.. Although I'm not from UK, US or other western countries but I have certainly work with many people from India before. They are nice and honest people and I will definitely work with them again.

    Just do your best, offer a good service and I'm sure you'll do good

    God bless you,
    Jeremiah

    Start of making them for free, maybe 5-10 of them. Yeah, you make no money in the start but you build a huge amount of credibility, testimonials and happy customers who will probably buy from you in the future - if you are doing high quality work.

    It will seem like a waste of time in the beginning but in th elong run, it will be one of the best things you can do. Plus, nobody will turn you down. Who doesn't want a free site?
