I see a lot of people advising you to increase it. Don't. Its a perfect number with a simple idea "MVP for $2345". It has in-built chance of virality/wordofmout

I see a lot of people advising you to increase it. Don't. Its a perfect number with a simple idea "MVP for $2345". It has in-built chance of virality/wordofmouth for its USP - so you are getting free marketing dollars inside that number.
If you charge 10K+ like others are suggesting, then you are competing with 10000 devs ready to do that work. If you charge 1K, you will lose money and target the extreme low ballers, and no amount of free marketing can make it sustainable. Your number of ~2.5K is a perfect balance.
But set a few hard-rules before you agree on a project:
- wireframes, mockups with annotations to avoid scope-creep
- design will be bootstrap quality (otherwise design is never-ending)
- is designed for demo purposes, it will break if 10,000 ppl access it.
Remember your clients are "idea mongers" who want to validate an idea, but dont have the chops to do it themselves. So your clients will not be businesses or startups - but plain old business folks with ideas. Stick with it. If the demand is great, then outsource it or franchise it, but control quality by keeping it within your strengths (py + web.py)
since you missed "1" here is a way to include it:
1 for $2345 :)
Great idea! Good Luck!
