I have written a novel. While I am agressively trying to get it published, I need a website built to promote it. I already have a domain name registered. I need an estimate to build the site. Photographs will be on this website and these photos are already in digital form, however, some identifying information will have to be deleted from the photos. There will be custom artwork on the web page, it is already designed and will be in digital form. There will be an excerpt from the novel in addition to promotional text and an author bio. I am not familiar with web site design and need an estimate for this project. Thank you
Bid Smart - The lowest bidder doesn't always get chosen, far from it. Persuade your buyer why they should pick you - and they will.
Research - If John has paid more than $500 a contract for his last 10 project, why would you think he is interested in your $10 bid? Check up on the buyer, bid what he expects, and deliver quality to match.
Read - Please read the bid request - I cannot emphasise this enough - if you do not read the bid request then you will not be chosen, this is pretty much certain. Mention the bid request specifically in your application, and don't forget to repeat the key deliverables.
Innovate - Suggest features the bidder didn't mention, talk about future extensions to the project, and discuss whether you think his or her approach is a good idea. Show interest, intellect, and willing.
