I currently have the time to cater to an additional client or two or three, but no more. I charge between USD 20-an-hour and USD 76-an-hour with short-form written pieces taking between two and four hours to complete depending on the typically requested word count (up to 1,500 words). This includes research time.


Long-form blog posts spanning between 1,500 and 6,000 words are based on the following:

• 4-6 interviews with industry experts
• Thorough research, images and SEO keyword-rich writing included.
• These are written at a starting rate of USD 0.45 a word and can take up to a week and a half to write.

Finding Out the Specific Rate

Regarding short-form text, I’ll be able to pinpoint a specific rate for you once I go through the real-world hoops of writing one trial article for your company, that is, the average article you would expect me to write for you. This step would allow me to measure the total effort of written voice crafting, the input amount of research time, and the editing needed to create a typical piece you’d be sweetly charmed about.



After reading this website, ordering a paid trial article is the next step in the process of finding out whether:



a) we’d be a good “fit” for each other, and


b) whether the final, specific contract rate per article I quote you — after the trial article is done — suits you fine.



My justification reason for my above range of rates is the following:

• I stand by my excellent writing — which, over time — helps build a compelling, solid brand that instils pride. I base my current rate on the highly excellent 2018 Freelance Writers Survey prepared by ContentWonk.com. The survey identifies USD 74 as the minimum living wage where a freelance writer can “buy a house, take vacations, and retire.”
