Your site is excellent... I agree with Gustav on his comments though. What costs most and takes longest in any web site is the graphics and the design, especially if the client has a specific concept in mind. I find that the assembly of a layout, for a site may only take an evening but arriving at the right layout may take a few of days and the graphics can take a long time especially if they have to be processed in Photoshop... last site I did took over a week to do the graphics... Then there is documentation that is associated the graphics as well as over-view docs... Some sites like some eye-candy like a nice Flash header... Now if the client wants the ability to keep the site fresh by being able to add and change graphics and doc that can be a lot more time. I have seen trivial sites take 2 weeks or more to do and the client has to be billed appropriately. On the other hand all businesses these days need a web presents whether they believe it or not. It is like the old 'Yellow' page ad or business card all rolled into one and that is not counting the online shopping potential.
