Hi,
I would tend to agree. Most of the web sites I do nowadays are 20-40 pages.
They're exactly those "in-between" sites you refer to. I'll still do a 5-10
pager, but they don't seem to take that much less time than the big ones. I
develop a template and any graphics I'll need for the whole thing, then plug
in any photos or text that's required. I still have to test the pages across
all my browsers at different resolutions, do as much on-site consultation, and
maintenance can be just as time consuming. I've started charging a basic fee,
plus price per page (smaller for fewer graphics, larger for those guys who
won't take "minimal" for an answer), and I'll give a discount for a number of
pages over X. That may mean that a 10 page site and a 25 page site cost
closer to the same than one would ordinarily think.
