I've been going through tutorials on how to install Drupal and create custom themes. Now I have to quote on a job but I really don't have any idea on how long it takes to create a site with say 2 or 3 templates. I know css so I'm happy with how long that takes.

What is the average time it takes people to build a site in Drupal? I'm sure while learning it will take a little longer but it would be nice to have an idea on how long it takes on average.

Thanks

This totally depends on the depth of the project, features/functionality modules etc.

You really have to create a detailed spec with all this and make each thing a line item to do a proper estimate -

Just my experience with estimating Drupal projects, good luck!

You should try to build one or two Drupal websites in order to know how much time you need to this task. I think it is very subjective. Moreover you should need exactly the details about the new website structure before starting.
