Common questions from web developers
- Who is responsible if the website goes down after launch?
- This depends on what your contract says about hosting. If you're hosting on the client's own server/account, they're responsible for uptime. If you're managing hosting, your contract should define your SLA, response times, and what's included in your maintenance fee. Never take on hosting without a clear service agreement.
- Should I require content from the client before building?
- Yes — content delays are one of the biggest causes of project overruns. Your contract should specify that design and development work depends on client-provided content being delivered by a certain date. Include a clause stating that delays caused by client inaction may extend the delivery timeline and may incur additional charges.
- What's a reasonable kill fee if a project gets cancelled mid-build?
- Typically, you should be paid for all work completed to date plus a cancellation fee (often 25% of the remaining project value). The safest approach is milestone billing — you get paid at each milestone, so there's no large unpaid balance if a project gets cancelled.
