Someone once bothered me about building a website when I made clear I wasn't too interested for ANY price. eventually I agreed to do one for a small amount $40, I think. It was still a nightmare for me. This was pretty much a waste of time, he didn't want to learn anything that I tried teaching him along the way. He wouldn't buy the premium plugin that would of set him apart. He kept insisting I didn't know how to put his adsense code in the header of his website (crypto-related). I told him, "I know how to put google adwords bro, right click your ad 'inspect element', it's an iframe being blocked", and I had to research myself, googe ads get blocked on crypto sites! This guy did 0 due diligence, he knew nothing of websites, just wanted to make money. HE WAS CHEAP.
Next he wanted another, a simple 1 page site for his to domains, $20. Again, I didn't want but okay, a couple days this would be done, I could do it I didn't really even want bother for $20, still I took this project on too.
He was all busy planning how to promote his first one! Still, he had me doing edit after edit, updating his 'domain' list over and over, this guy had NO content, making demands of me, that i update his domain list over and over (domaining site lol). I was clearly upset when he tried rushing me to finish this 1 page website. To try pushing me along when I already went beyond 1 simple page, this guy offered something like $12 for MORE work than the single page we were still fussing over.
I went off the rails, and deleted all this guys stuff. This small amount, a little carrot bit of $12 to add more pages to this 2nd site was extremely offensive.
Moral: don't waste peoples time with tiny offers when they're clearly expecting more. You don't know this person and it's rude to offer less than he wants as a minimum.
