I've had some clients offer to pay me $10 for a 5000 word project. Personally, I suggest NOT doing that! <br />On the other hand I know some people (ghost writers) who charge $900 for a 10,000 word project! Again, not something I suggest.<br />I charge $13 per 1000 words, but for repeat clients I'm willing to work with them on price and normally decide on $10 per 1000 words. I can't speak for anyone else but that's where I am on the price scale. <br /><br />It comes down to what the writer and the author(the client) are willing to agree on. As a client you want to get the most bang for you buck, but you also want to hire someone who is GOOD,<br />As a writer you don't want to feel unappreciated. <br /><br />I hope that answers your question! :)Kelly D.

I saw some of those offers on Elance, and I wonder at how low some of them are. How cheap is too cheap?Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.com
