    I'd suggest getting paid hourly if you're just starting out.

    put together a quote based on the hours you anticipate for each stage. Be thorough about it so they understand where the money goes and what it's going to cost them to make big changes half way in.

    try milestones like:
    - homepage signoff (set the look and feel)
    subpage signoff (for a basic utility page and any subpages that have specific design requirements
    -Template Markup(hourly)
    -Production (per page)
    -quality control and approval
    (hourly)

    Your rate is a hard thing to guage. If you're in competition, pricing too high might lose you the business. but pricing to low, and they'll have you picking up the dry cleaning.
    Nobody wastes a Lawyer's time @ $200/hr.

    if you've got the stomach for it, bill what you think a professional site would run, rather than what the guy down the road might be charging.
