Village Genius will become famous soon enough

If you're using a site builder it's not web development. Those are toys for executives, not tools for professionals. I'd personally refuse a project where they want me to use a WYSIWIG so they can maintain it afterwards; there is nothing wrong with needing to come back to a specialist to complete special needs. Moves like that indicate excessive cheapness, always a red flag when working with clients.

As for a web host, if they don't want you involved after the fact just find one that comes with a site builder feature. I'm not familiar with any that do this but I know they are out there. I'm guessing that they will jump for whatever opportunity saves them a penny so go by price if that's what matters.

Whatever they want you to do just charge your normal hourly rate.
