I have just created my 4th wordpress theme ever. I have a few questions that I want an opinion for. Here is the Template: How much do you think would be a good price for this template. If I do decide to get it coded, how much would it cost me do you think? And how much would I be able to sell for it coded? Do you guys know any cheap coders that can do this? also what do you think of this template? Do you like it, and why/why not? thanks.
IMHO, I don't dislike the design, it's pretty nice. I don't think that you could get much for the design (uncoded) but I would expect low $xx. As for coded, it would probably double the design's value, I would say mid $xx. There are plenty of people here that would be willing to code the site for not that much $. I would recommend that you post in the BST > Services area of the forum. Best of luck, Nicangeli
First thing I'd do is increase the font size on the main body copy, then adjust the contrast on the calendar's selected date (black on blue just doens't stand out well). After that, the price you'd want to sell it for once coded will depend greatly on the quality of the markup used as well as the quality of the PHP code that went into generating it. Something I would do is probably sell the theme (coded) for about $50 or so, and then offer customization and support services attached to the theme for a premium (in other words, charge your hourly rate based upon the number of hours you think it would take to work on the customization and support in 15 minute increments; for example, if you charge $60/hour and you think it would take 2 1/2 hours to customize, then you could charge $150 for the service - you've just made $50 for selling the theme, and an extra $150 for customizing it for a particular site; not a bad way to make $200 a day; now imagine if you have ten people per month buying the theme and paying you to customize it for their needs and suppor them as well - you can make a nice chunk of change out of that one theme).
