Website design quote
Web quotes fall apart when build and content are fuzzy. Phase the quote like the project: discovery, design, development, launch. Clients approve milestones, you invoice against them.
Or jump straight to the Quote Generator.
Phase-based line items
Discovery & sitemap, wireframes, homepage design, inner pages, build, CMS, QA/launch. Each can be a line or a grouped phase with subtotal.
Scope exclusions
Call out what you're not doing: copywriting, stock photography, ongoing SEO, hosting fees. One bullet in terms saves ten emails later.

Common questions
- Fixed price or hourly quote?

- Include maintenance?
- Separate retainer line or separate quote. Don't hide it inside the build total.
