I just received a job today and this is my first freelance job. I thought it was to be a simple site of up to 6 pages utilizing a site style template. With that in mind I quote $300.00 up to 6 pages. I received the outline of what they wanted and it is much more than a site that is more for a small business with up to 6 pages. Therefore, could anyone out there give me a rough estimate of what they would charge for a website that is for a Church and is comprised of the following pages (updating and maintenance a separate issue and do not consider for this rough estimate) All copy will be sent via e-mail to paste in, all digital photos sent via e-mail.

17 pages with 1 photo on each page utilizing a site style template how much per page?

15 pages with up to 3 photos a page, how much per page?

1 page with a photo gallery containing up to 50 photos, how much for this page?

1 page that accepts tidings and monetary contributions and set up with paypal. How much for this page?

I thank you very much for your help.

$30-50 / page for these:

17 pages with 1 photo on each page utilizing a site style template how much per page?
15 pages with up to 3 photos a page, how much per page

depending how good your design skills are. The more amateur, the lower on the scale.

=====================================
1 page with a photo gallery containing up to 50 photos, how much for this page?

That depends on how you are going to be doing it. Bare bones would run $60. More if they want a script where they can add as many as the want.

======================================
I'd say about $80-100 for

1 page that accepts tidings and monetary contributions and set up with paypal. How much for this page?

Paypal has a very easy to use shopping cart system that you could use. It's all copy & paste HTML for you. The actual work is done on the paypal site.

Your pricing is very close to what I was thinking. The total I came up with was 1270.00, but then someone gave me what they would quote and he did a similiar job. He said the similiar job he bid 4,000 and other bids where 6,000-10,000. He got the job, so he said abuot 3,350.00 he would quote. I am not in his position in regards to being established, and I believe he has more skill in the web design area, however, my skill in graphic design is good and have 13 years experience. So to get the job I will show some of the responses to back up my quote and exhibit that it is a low end quote, since they originally were quoted 150.00 by some flake, they did one page and they never heard from them again, I am worried they are thinking it is really low, but I quoted 300.00 for up to 6 pages amd they want me to do the job, but I don't know if they are in the 300.00 mind set, they have handed me an outline that contains 34 pages, so I guess they are expecting to pay more. I am going to bid the job at 1800.00 because I always wind up putting more into it than is necessary, or that I should. That is my own fault, but I will loose because of that fault of mine, but I won't because of the exposure, and possible referrals of the church members. Thanks for your help I apprciate it very much.
