Frequently Asked Questions
How much should I charge for an article?
A researched 1,500-word marketing article commonly runs $300–800 from established freelancers; expert/technical pieces $800–2,000+. Word count × rate + interviews and research hours at your hourly rate.
Should research and interviews be billed separately?
Build them into the quote as line items. An article requiring two SME interviews costs 2–3 hours beyond writing — invisible-but-unbilled research time is the classic freelancer margin leak.
How many revisions should an article price include?
One or two rounds, stated in the quote. Additional rounds bill hourly — scope-creep revisions are where fixed-price articles quietly become minimum-wage work.
