Standard Web Development Service Agreement

Independent Contractor: Umidbek Gaipov (hereinafter — the "Contractor"), operating as an independent developer and frontend engineer.

Client: Legal entity or individual agreeing to this Agreement (hereinafter — the "Client").

The Contractor and the Client are collectively referred to as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party".

1. Subject of Agreement

1.1. The Contractor undertakes to perform custom web development services for the Client (creation of a high-converting landing page, corporate website, or web application) in accordance with the Technical Specification (hereinafter — "Scope of Work" or "SoW"), and the Client undertakes to accept and pay for the completed Deliverables under the terms of this Agreement.

1.2. The exact project scope, functional requirements, section structure, and agreed tiers are detailed in Appendix No. 1 (Scope of Work), which constitutes an integral part of this Agreement.

1.3. Development is executed on pure native code (HTML5, CSS3, Modern ES6+ JavaScript) without heavy third-party page builders (Tilda, WordPress, Webflow), guaranteeing maximum performance and PageSpeed scores of 90+.

2. Fees and Payment Terms

2.1. The total contract price is fixed prior to development start and is determined based on the selected service tier:

• Start Tier: $150 (rapid validation & MVP launch, 3–5 days).
• Base Tier: $250 (comprehensive conversion landing page, 5–10 days).
• Custom Tier: From $800 (bespoke multi-section web application, 10–21 days).

2.2. The agreed price is fixed in the contract and cannot be increased unilaterally by the Contractor. Additional charges may only occur if the Client requests features outside the approved Scope of Work.

2.3. Settlement is conducted according to one of two agreed models:

• Model 50 / 50: 50% advance deposit upon contract signing; remaining 50% upon Client review and acceptance of the staging version.
• Model 30 / 40 / 30: 30% kickoff deposit (Discovery, Strategy & Copywriting); 40% intermediate milestone (Functional prototype on staging URL); 30% final milestone (Production launch, DNS handover & source code release).

2.4. Payments are made via bank wire transfer, corporate invoice, Visa, MasterCard, or online payment gateways against invoice.

3. Timeline and Milestone Protocol

3.1. Turnaround times are calculated in business days from the date of advance deposit receipt and submission of essential source materials by the Client:

• Start: 3 to 5 business days;
• Base: 5 to 10 business days;
• Custom: 10 to 21 business days.

3.2. Development strictly follows the 4-phase, 10-step protocol:

1. Phase 1: Discovery, Competitor Audit, Strategy, and Copywriting;
2. Phase 2: Information Architecture and UI/UX Wireframing;
3. Phase 3: Native Vanilla Development and Responsive Quality Assurance;
4. Phase 4: Integrations (Telegram bot, CRM, Analytics), Production Deployment, and Handover.

3.3. In the event of an unjustified deadline delay caused solely by the Contractor, the project cost is reduced by 1% per business day (up to 10% of the total sum).

3.4. Delays caused by late feedback, material submissions, or scope changes from the Client automatically extend the project timeline proportionally.
