Of course - but remember it's not a rush-job. Charge by the hour, and then if it takes you 48 hours straight to do the job before the deadline, then you get paid for the work you have done. If you can, use a templating system to speed up your work - create your own library or use one already on line - on average it now takes me about a week to create a website - 4 days to work on the design and content, half a day to code and test it and half a day to present it to the client and thrash out any issues that arise! Templating systems (based on PHP because that's what I use) I can recommend as a quick start are: Smarty (http://smarty.php.net/) TinyButStrong (http://www.tinybutstrong.com/) phpGenLib (http://www.wepoweryour.net/ - a shameless plug coz I wrote it!) A round up (although I've not read it and it doesn't include my library!) can be found at http://www.massassi.com/php/articles/template_engines/ Similar things exist for ASP, so see what you can find!
