1) Quotes. I plan to quote, I see people have different opinions on this. My plan is to get a very specific website design agreed upon, which I will quote. Any additional work requested that is outside the scope of the agreement will be billed by an hourly rate. This is mentioned in the contract. I think that'd work to prevent scope creep?

This is certainly a great idea, you shoudl take it up as a full time job, it is one of the finest things to do sitting at the comfort of your home
2) Would it be possible to post the contract I have for feedback? It is 6 pages in word, I found it online, and made a few modifications.

Didnt really get whjat you are trying to say here? could you rephrase it?
3) My flat hourly rate is going to be 50 US Dollars, I believe that is a fair rate for someone just "starting" out, correct?
|
Yep anything between $35 -50 is decent, if you have some example of your work make a site and post everything there
4) Could I even post my website for feedback?
|
Yes you can, certainly
5) Any recommendations on good places to find work? I design in wordpress, not very good with graphics, but can also design in PHP, Html, and CSS (if someone wishes to have a simple website, with little bells and whistles).
Much thanks.  |
