Ask your client how much he would like to invest in this project?
Easy $2000. Even though it’s a single page, backend requires a lot more like a payment gateway, gated content, user roles, etc.
same price as a car.
10 billion.
That won’t be a one page website
When estimating a project budget you should start by taking apart the project and defining how many features and specifications the project would need.
You’d need, at least
* A website
* A private area for the users to track their videos
* A payment integration
* A backend for you or your instructor to upload the content
Even if the front is a onepage website, you should consider everything related to what the users need in order to pay the subscription and watching the videos.
Now, there are two main approaches to this:
* Build everything using WordPress + WooCommerce + Membership plugins + LMS Plugins
* Build a onepage website that redirects the user to an established LMS platform that handles the payment, storage of the videos and structure of the learning.
Depending on your client’s budget and your dev skills you should go one way or another. Also, are you going to mantain the website after developing? Is the client willing to pay for the whole deal?
Before asking how much to charge, first try to outline what’s the best approach or, at least, your approach to the problem.
After that, think about how many hours it should take, estimate possible changes in design and features, check plugin and theme prices that you might need as well as subscriptions, then, set everything up in a spreadsheet so that you don’t lose money.
Put it together, it will be easy and quick to adjust to your client’s needs.
2 weeks work, max. I would charge average month wage in your country/state/county.
Success.
Of course it’s not a one page website. You can make it a larger landing page but then the subpages behind the paywall will need to exist. This one can be a relatively easy sell as you’re not selling a one page website, you’re selling an investment. Essentially the work should be paying for itself with a positive ROI. Assuming this will also be a lead generation tool to generate more memberships you’re developing a residual income stream for the client. Sell the heck out of this thing!
Using WP, WooCommenrce and member management plugins should make this mostly out of the box with some customizations but not require crazy custom dev. Server infrastructure will be important since you’ll be managing payments.
$5k-7k (USD) on the high end but remember your not just developing a simple webpage, you’re developing a revenue stream for them, and extension of their business. You can also capitalize on that and charge a simple one time fee deposit of like $1k and then bill monthly for the rest of the dev/consulting time plus maintenance and upkeep.
E-commerce and membership are my least favorite projects because there are a lot of moving parts and require a lot of testing – signup forms, payments, email notifications, member management, and maybe tiered pricing.
It’s likely that you’ll have to walk him through the different options for payment processing (stripe, PayPal, etc) and make sure the service can handle recurring payments.
I’d use a pro Vimeo account to serve the videos so he’s not uploading giant files to the site.
The client may not understand the level of effort with all of this. Charge a premium.
