I usually, design a test site for clients to review and sign off, before I move the site to the live server for final testing of links etc..., but I have a client that wants me to set up everything fully on my server before they approve the site to go live. Now I have in my contract that I must test links live on the clients server to avoid just this case.
Here are my options cause I'm mad now and have done a lot to appease this client as they are large and could boost my business.
1. Charge client 500 extra to connect all links, pics, videos, and set up contact page on my server.
2. Just tell them no and to read my contract
3. Drop client.
Do any of you build out a full site in a test environment before launch?
**** update 1/30/2012
Waiting on client to accept price for extra services. Its been a week and will be two weeks this Thursday. I have taken the test site down for now until a decision is made.
