    just shoot it straight with the client , everything you do is billable

    research , analyzing code , testing,

    tell the client what they are paying , flat fees are murky without the hour estimate , and you will eat hours that way and next thing you know you made minimum wage on the project .

    always estimate the hours to the client and yes PAD , it gives a sense of deadline , but be upfront what you are billing , if you are doing work towards there project why are you not billing it, or padding another area?

    to answer the above question would some one pay $8000 for a template , yes they would and I know plenty who have

    but they did not pay just for the template ,

    Templates are out of the box solutions with 0 content and no original art work

    just cause you use a template does not mean you did not modify it to meet the company's need .

    I have estimated WP projects at over 120 over and that is using a template , now for someone to pay around $8K that would be a project of about 150 hours (about 3.5 weeks) at around $45-50 dollars an hour very reasonable
