A bunch of Websites I've Done
Re: A bunch of Websites I've Done
Welcome to TalkGraphics and thanks for sharing. You have obviously been very busy and it appears you like XWD 6 :)
Re: A bunch of Websites I've Done
I've been "lurking" around for a couple years and thought I'd post what I've been up to. This community has been awesome, and I thought this might be a way I can contribute. XWD and this forum has really been a blessing to me and my business. Thanks everybody!
Re: A bunch of Websites I've Done
Nice work. You must be a good salesman!
How do you handle updates with your clients? Some of the sites look as though they need regular updates.
Re: A bunch of Websites I've Done
I have several options for my clients who want to update there web site:
1) A monthly maintenance contract
2) I use Cushy CMS, which is awesome!
3) Embedded google docs, or calendar, or other widgets
4) I sell them Xara software with the design and will train them how to update the site themselves.
XWD is perfect for me because I primarily do design, print, and marketing, and never learned much html or CSS. Now I can still focus on the design, and let XWD do the code :).
Re: A bunch of Websites I've Done
OK, thanks for the info.
4) is interesting because I'd always imagined it would be a pain to handle clients that would forever be calling up because they have some problem or other using XWD or just messed things up. For many people, they would be calling up expecting help without payment.

You're right. I've found the best option is to convince them to pay me to do the updates rather than doing the updates themselves. To those that insist on doing updates themselves or using XWD software, I make sure they understand that they will need to pay me for training/assistance/repair, and I have them sign a contract confirming that they understand this.
So far I haven't had any problem with customers understanding this, but I have been paid a few times to fix there problems :D.
