Net30 is very standard. Net60 is the norm for me. A lot of times it goes net120, and even 180+ (but those are my larger, long time clients. I know theyll eventually pay, and they come to me with a lot of work).
Word of advice: Always have some loot saved up too, so you're not strapped for cash. Try not to bitch at your clients for being a little late. They are your bloodline when you're self-employed, and theres a lot of other folks who ARE willing to wait. If they're late just be persistent, semi-annoying, but professional.
At the same time, pick your clients carefully. If they're not paying at all, then you probably didn't do your homework to begin with.

- A good client should pay within a week. WTF is 180? Even if you have a good bank flow, 180 days is a long time to wait to get compensated for work.********
- Imagine if you had 180 days to do work?********
