Matt Everson of Astuteo and PHP & JavaScript developer Todd Lekan have designed the Web Development Project Estimator. It's a simple tool that allows web designers and site developers to quickly and thoroughly estimate the time and materials required for their proposed web projects.

To use it, simply enter the title of your project, your default hourly rate, and the hours you anticipate each phase of project the to take. If a certain task doesn’t apply, you can easily edit or delete it. If you have more tasks to add, you can do so with the small Add Task button at the bottom. When finished, you can view your estimate in print-ready format to print or file away electronically as a PDF.

There’s also a handy little Save Changes check box, which will save an updated cookie to your local machine so you don’t have to revise the form with every subsequent visit. We tried to make it extremely simple, but flexible enough for anybody to use.
