I second that.

Tell them you've done over and above what you
quoted for and your doing them a favour charging
what you are. Stand your ground.

If you give in they'll mess you about with the other
work to.

Don't take the site down or threaten it until you really
have to. Sounds like they're just trying their luck.
They must like what you do since they're offering more
work. But as was said before never give a discount on
the promise of more work, that's rule number one.
