A big portion of my organic search traffic comes as a result of queries relating to freelance rates. I plan to write specific posts to address readers’ questions about how much freelancers of certain professions charge (e.g. social media marketers, marketing consultants, email marketers, etc.) but in the meantime, I’d like to draw your attention to a freelance pricing guide that already is available on this blog. It consists of four parts and I am sure it will address most, if not all of your questions.

Make no mistake – this post will not tell you how much you should charge. It’ll do you one better It will guide you through the process of deciding what your hourly rate should be, how to calculate your rates on a project basis, and even how to decide whether to charge by the hour or by the project.
