Web Maintenance fees

This is an interesting billing model for web maintenance.

I believe that billing time and material for web edits is fair.

However, it isn't consistent income. An edit here and there at variable prices can often leave the studio scrambling to make ends meet, or rushing projects and late hours trying to meet expectations when multiple clients hit at once.

This article gives a good analogy as to how paying the same price for maintenance throughout the year can benefit both the client and the studio.
