BTW my employers outsource a lot of work to design agencies. One site
looked good and backend of asp/mysql to show their different centres for
hire cost them £12,000. How the heck do you get that sort of money,

Honestly , I'm not trolling - but do you get enough of them to make a living
at that price?

Maybe I have slightly higher expectations than most, but after corporation
tax, income tax NI, etc not to mention basic company costs I'd need to do
two of them week in week out to make it worthwhile.

Plus If nothing else, that's 104 different logos id need to think up each
year.

I susppose that once you've done enough then the residual income from the
hosting starts to help, but even so.

Just curious about how it makes financial sense.
