1. Agree on the job
For accounts, online payments, complex booking, or application features, expand the technical brief before choosing a brochure-site plan.
2. Explain the choice
3. Count the first twelve months
Enter each item's full first-year amount in the same currency. A price shown “per month, billed yearly” normally means an annual upfront payment. Keep freelancer workspace costs separate from client hosting; document any amount you pass through.
4. Agree on ownership and handover
- Confirm ownership, billing and transfer steps in the chosen platform's current documentation.
- Check the live domain and submit a contact-form test after handover.
- Ask the client to complete a real editing task with their own access.
- Record renewal dates and recovery contacts in the client's secure records.
- Agree on future support, access and any export or migration limitations.
