Frequently asked questions

How do web developers bill milestones?

Add one line per milestone (e.g. "Milestone 1 — design approved", "Milestone 2 — launch") and issue an invoice as each is reached, or list them all with due notes.

Can I pass through hosting and domain costs?

Yes. Add hosting, domains and plugin/theme licences as separate line items so the client sees they are reimbursing a real cost.

How do I bill a monthly maintenance retainer?

Create a "Website maintenance — monthly" line and reissue the same invoice each month, or note it as recurring in your terms.

Hourly or fixed price for a website?

Fixed price suits well-scoped builds; hourly suits ongoing or unclear scope. You can combine a fixed build line with hourly "out of scope" lines.
