thinking of starting up a website Options

[rickysaurus]

So I've been kind of wanting to start my own website up. Very simple, clients contact me for any illustrative work they want done, and I'll do it for them, at a price.

Only thing holding me back is I don't really have the confidence to do it. Do you guys think I'm qualified to actually provide my services for cash? I'm thinking of charging between 10 to 15 dollars per hour. Be honest. I don't wanna be giving my clients garbage and have unhappy customers.

Thanks for the advice, John. Customer relations, yeah I really won't know till I do it for real, but I can't seem to get my confidence past the feeling that I might be rushing it too soon. That I'm not really all that qualified enough to actually charge people for my things.

I have some work experience doing my internship, and I'm lucky enough that my bosses give me a pretty big range of creative freedom, with only a few breakdowns in communication and brainstorming.

Instead of doing it per hour, I think I'll just start with a base price of like 20 to 25 dollars. Then if they need anything more complex, I can give them a full quote.
