How much to charge? That is a question I ask myself all the time. I am starting in the business, I do not have a clue as to how much I should charge. Any comments?

If I understand the rules for posting messages to the forum correctly, we are not supposed to compare our prices and rates.



But here is what you can do: look at several members\' profiles and compare their rates (most of us state our rates or a general price recommendation on our profile pages).



Good Luck!

Yes. A little as possible to earn sufficiently per hour work.
