You can design a website in 30 hours. Your friend can design the same site in 20 hours. How long will it take?
338411
You can do it in x/30 + x/20 time, where x is the total hours.  Since each hour, you accomplish 1/30 of the task.\n\nx/30 + x/20 = 1.  Solve and get 12.\n\nIf you think about it, this answer checks.  You won't both get the half done.  After 12 hours, you would have done 12/30 of the work and your friend would have done 12/20 of the work, assuming the pace is constant.  12/30 + 12/20 adds to all of the work being done.

15 people  8 hours       100 items\n6 people   x hours        50 items\n\n\n1 men  would made 100 items in 15*8=120 hours,\n6 men would need  120/6 = 20 hours to make 100 items; \nhence, for 50 items they need 20/2 hours which is 10 hours.

You Create HTML TAGS\nftp the html conent to a web server\n\n\nDon't hype yourself\nThe internet is a medium, just like radio, tv, and paper. It carries your message, that's all. Nothing to get excited and hot about. It's very easy to hype yourself into believing anything. Others may be succesful, but I'll bet you anything that they've worked very hard to get there. \n\n\nYou can't have it all\nThe triangle of expectations: cheap, fast, and good. You can choose any two, but can't have the third one. For example: fast and cheap means it won't be good.\n\n\n\n\nStart small\nBuilding a website takes time. Start small with a basic website, just a couple of webpages. It will give you a feel of what is possible and what not. It is very tempting to want to start big, with lot's of features and gizmo's, just like what you see on other sites. But it will delay the opening of your website. A website is never finished, plan for continuous updates and growth.\n\n\nGet a manager\nDon't put a whizkid, graphical designer, or a programmer in charge of your internet project. Whizkids are cheap and they have lot's of great idea's. But they focus on what's hot and new, not on finishing your project. A graphical designer will deliver a great looking but completely useless website. A programmer will make a website wich you can use, but don't want to. Building a website is just like any other project; lot's of little details have to be merged into a whole. You will need somebody to organise and keep track of the unruly designers and programmers. \n\n\nUse the possibilities\nInternet is a digital medium with a lot of possibilities. Making a flat copy of your company brochure is a valid way to start a website, but consider adding things like email, ordering, searching, sounds, link list. Maybe a game, chatbox, webcam, postcards. The extra's will make your site interesting to visit, will make visitors want to come back, and will set you apart from your competitors. You can also have protected pages for your own use, or for subscribers. Internet pages are cheap, you can have a lot more information on a website than in a brochure. \n\n\nDatabases\nConnect your database to the internet and pronto, another website is born. The database-sellers make it sound so easy, just make some templates and you're in business. Not! You can't break the triangle of expectations (see above). The speed of a database-driven website is an order of magnitude slower than a flat-file website. Search engines generally cannot index database-driven websites. Security is a big issue and must be looked at very carefully. Of-the-shelve programs have very limited customizing capabilities, or are so general that it's faster to build a custom solution. If you don't have sufficient database-knowledge in-house, then you may very well end up in the unbreakable grip of the company you have contracted to build your website. \n\n\nDon't relax\nUpdate your website regularly. Add new information, remove old stuff. Creating a website is step one, there is no such thing as a finished website. Maintenance will cost a lot more effort than creating the website. Investing to make maintenance easier will definitely pay back. \n\n \n\n\nPlanning\n\n\n\nDescribe, don't dictate\nThere are basically two ways of telling a professional how to build something. You can describe what you want in global and functional terms, or you can dictate exactly what you want. I favour "describe". It leaves room for the professional to come up with more creative, cheaper, easier, and faster solutions. Beware of wizzkids that may take the opportunity to sell you on using some unproven new hot technology they want to try.\n\n\nGet your own URL\nGrab your own domainname, before somebody else does. Don't limit yourself to the .com domain's, also grab .net, .org, and any others that you can get. Also take permutations

It depends on what the bride and groom want to add to it. It can be anywhere between 20 minutes to 2 hours. mine was 23 minutes. I did not have a lot of unecessary stuff in the ceremony. It was simple and to the point

This kit claims to have the answers to starting a web design business http://www.sitepoint.com/books/freelance1/?SID=2dffbd95b9c25e9302ec1458217e76ea .  It isn't cheap and I don not know anyone who has used it but, it looks like it is targeting needs such as yours.\n\nAnother (maybe best) approach is to work for an existing, successful design firm for 6-12 months to get first hand experience on what it takes to launch, grow and manage a profitable web design business.  Then take the time to develop a business plan - see template at http://www.score.org/template_gallery.html

I am a web designer and there is no way to create a large scale site quickly unless it looks bad and doesn't work. Many people think this is just a quick thing but there is a lot of back end programming that you don't understand. You need to hire someone who knows what they are doing.\n\nYou may be able to throw together a simple HTML site but nobody does that anymore.

well 3hrs 20 minutes is converted just like you do 3hrs 30 minutes. 20 divided 60 = .33 so it would be 3.33 hrs

I'm in agreement with Drew here.\n\nIt's not something you just up and decide to do without any previous knowledge of webdesign.\n\nHowever, let me try to be of some help\n\n1) You need to know a great programming language.  I built my dating site in ASP.NET.  You can use PHP or ASP, it's a matter of personal choice.\n\n2) Find a good hosting site that will allow a lot of bandwidth.  I use jodohost.com\n\n3) Think up a great name for the site and register it as the domain name.  It needs to be something catchy and people will remember.\n\n4) It needs to be designed so that people can use a trial version for like 3 days or something.  This way you can encourage new users.\n\n5) Build multiple plans that people can choose from for payment options.  Everyone has their own budget so tailor to multiple budgets.\n\n6) Keep it simple and not too cluttered with crap.  \n\n7) Great features are chatting, profiles, instant messaging, forums, compatability tests, newsletters, featured profiles, the ability to block messages by user, ability to add video, ability to add sound.\n\n8) Advertise locally first.  My site was tailored towards college students so I made sure that the local colleges were plastered with flyers (not neccessarily ethical, but hey...).\n\n9) Offer perks to new users such as unlimited use for 1 month for free, or free features such as chatting if they sign up by a certain time period.\n\n10) Network with other sites that work with dating.  Create a banner rotation system and offer to work with online coupons, flower sites, hotel sites, etc.  SOmething that will drive traffic to you from other sites.\n\n11) Advertise online everywhere.  Myspace, Bolt, Bolt2, Match.com, etc.\n\n12) Make sure it's safe for people under 18 (if you allow them to use the service).  Parents don't want their 16yr old son looking at nudity.  The more people that can use your site, will use it.  \n\nLook at other top dating sites out there (match.com) and see what they do.  take from their ideas.

Its good that you are creating a web site. But i wanted to suggest you that inspite of asking idea from others just go ahead and show your creativity. just come with a small version then ask us to visit and comment.\nFor idea surf the web and see simillar sites, search on google for simillar sites.\nI like your thought keep it up and come with some thing. Best of Luck.

At most shouldn't it take only 13 minutes?  If 1 & 2 cross together, then they will take 3 minutes, and if 3 & 4 cross together, they will need 10 minutes.  10 + 3 = 13.\n\nMaybe I don't really understand the question??

I can only speak for myself when I say that $500 isn't a very realistic figure.  If I were to design a site for someone I'd be looking at charging around $75 to $100 an hour so you're not going to get many hours work for $500.  That said, there are people who will charge more or less.  Some will charge per page and others per site.\n\nOne drawback of having someone else design your site is dealing with subsequent maintenance, technical problems etc - if you have to keep calling someone in and they charge each time the costs are soon going to mount up.\n\nIf at all possible, I'd look a designing the site yourself - the basics can easily be done using Front Page or similar.\n\nThere's a huge number of easy to follow sites that can help with flash, style sheets, specific scripts and so on.\n\nGood luck and I hope you manage to get your site sorted.
