Well; as you said already, it really depends on the type of site. Something else to factor in is domain name services, website hosting, as well as the design portion of it. I'm not sure what a very reasonable price would be, but I can tell you that some of the web-design companies in the town I live in charge around $150 for 3 pages, no forms or anything like that. I think it is a rip off because they all use WYSIWYG editors (frontpage, golive, etc) to make these sites.

Hope this helps.

What's your time worth to you? Start from there as an hourly rate and adjust upward or downward as you think the market expects or will bear.

You don't work to come home poor.

Time is money.

$150 for 3 pages is pretty reasonable if the person's a good designer/coder.
