How much you should be charging for your work

how much to charge

The question comes up all too often from new designers all the time. How much should I charge?

Well, there's no right or wrong answer. It's whatever you feel you're worth. It's how much the market in your area will bear. It's how experienced are you. Any of those answers look familiar? It's just really hard to say. But there are plenty of resources available that can help you decide.

Take FreelanceSwitch for instance. They've developed an hourly rate calculator to give you a guide based on your costs, number of billable hours and desired profit. But be warned, you must take those other things into account when using it and adjust the rate accordingly.
