You let the client know about you not having so much experience with asp & mssql and still charge per hour. Maybe less, maybe more, but you don't suck in anything.
It's the same as if you work full time for a company, the only diff is you get paid for overtime. Jeremy McKay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I am primarily a PHP developer. If someone gave me the opportunity to develop in ASP & MSSQL, I think it would be unfair of me to charge the client for my extra development cost because I was unfamiliar with the environment. I would bill it out the same as a PHP job and suck up any cost of extra time, especially if I was doing excellent referable work. In my opinion, a consultant, should always bill per job whenever possible. Billing per hour doesn't make sense, because as you improve it will take less and less time to get the job done, so should you still charge per hour? Just my opinion _____ From: Tiago Relvão [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2006 1:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [php_mysql] PHP & MySQL vs. ASP & MSSQL There aren't significant differences from one solution to the other, considering you're developing some kind of website/portal. Your only concern should be maintenance. You must be sure you'll be able to find a developer later on, for the chosen solution. Nevertheless, it should be straightforward for a good web developer to change from one environment to the other. Although, developing costs will be higher in an unfamiliar environment.
