CMS's are the only smart way to do a basic website,
even a quick 3-6 page one. It just makes it easy
and solves most headaches like menuing and basic CSS.

$10 to $75 an hour for basic web stuff.. $250 an hour for magic.
And if using a CMS, the hours should be low.

Of course, this depends on the contract and I am not a lawyer,
but it should be a "work for hire" and the payer owns the end product.
