I'd say $250 minimum. How many hours do you think it'll take for you to complete it? You should make atleast a minimum of $20 an hour
There will be a lot more after you take the job, so I think a little overcharging let’s say for $50 will make you happier after you face the situation of the requirements for the additional search features.
if u have to do everything from scratch u should certainly charge him nothing less than 250$, but if u have the codes u can go in for 170-200$. But its ur effort and ur future money , so u gotta make the call
Go for $250. Then you can refund me the $120/£60 you still owe me that you're ignoring my PM's and emails about.
This truly sounds like a big job. So unless you have some templates pre-made, you should charge at least 250 as others suggested.
Why don't you charge a fixed minimum to start with say $250 for certain hours of work. Any work that exceeds that time you charge by the hour or something like that. I don't think a fixed model is gonna work. You have to have a combinatin of fixed + stepped variable mode.
