Managing Client Server

As a person aspiring to be a web developer, I've always wondered.

If you ask your client f开发者_高级运维or payment do you include monthly payment for the server cost, or you just have a server of your own and it's a one time pay, or even you tell the client to pay the monthly fee by themselves?

It depends on what you negotiate with them. You might include hosting, you might resell hosting, they might arrange their own hosting or you may act as a middleman for arranging hosting and pass off the admin to them after the initial set up.

… but don't offer them lifetime hosting for a fixed price or one-off payment.
