Hi - I have been doing design work for some time now but just within the last year i have started my own web design company( and this forum is a welcome find
) . I have done a few jobs commercially but I am wondering is the norm to give a quote or an estimate. I have read elsewhere that for web design it's bad to give a quote because you cant take every change of mind (from client ) and every eventuality into consideration and so it would be better to give an hourly rate and an estimate. However I notice that some of the businesses I have given an estimate to are expecting a quote. What are people's opinions on this.
